It’s hard to believe that today 844 million people do not have clean water and 2.3 billion do not have a decent toilet – around one in three of the world’s population. Every two minutes a child under five dies from diarrheal diseases caused by poor water and sanitation.
WaterAid is looking for a Head of People and Organisational Development to play a vital role in our mission to make clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone, everywhere by 2030.
Working within the Ghana Team, the Head of People and Organisational Development will:
- Develop and implement Country People and Organisational Development Plans by developing a clear understanding of the CP people needs and with the Senior Management Team (SMT) create and effectively deliver a people and OD plan to maximise the CP’s effectiveness and capabilities.
