The Organisation
Plan International is an independent development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.
We believe in the power and potential of every child. But this is often suppressed by poverty, violence, exclusion and discrimination. And it’s girls who are most affected.
Working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners, we strive for a just world, tackling the root causes of the challenges facing girls and all vulnerable children.
We support children’s rights from birth until they reach adulthood. And we enable children to prepare for – and respond to – crises and adversity. We drive changes in practice and policy at local, national and global levels using our reach, experience and knowledge.
We have been building powerful partnerships for children for over 80 years and are now active in more than 70 countries.
The Opportunity
Working as part of the Monitoring & Evaluation team, your primary roles as the M&E Taroworks Officer is to understand, maintain and support the use of Plan’s new global digital data collection tool, Taroworks. This role will be key in ensuring successful utilisation, adoption and functional development of the Taroworks and its integration with the wider M&E Salesforce System, aligned to Plan’s M&E frameworks and operating standards and procedures.
You will primarily be user-facing, working with the Regional, Country & National Office M&E teams, but also work closely with both the IT Project and operational teams alongside regular engagement with third-parties working to support the platform.
In this role, you will respond to functional support requests for the Taroworks app, including configuring test forms and jobs as demanded by country offices. You will provide training to users on the tool and work with the System Business Analyst to identify, collect and assess functional Taroworks change requests for feasibility.
The Individual
We are looking to recruit an accurate and observant individual who has experience in providing support to users of complex systems at varying levels of competency. You will have proven experience of supporting Salesforce/Force.com and/or digital data collection systems in a large and matrix organisation. You will also have experience in the use of reporting tools to develop reports.
To be successful in this role, you will have a customer focussed approach and have strong stakeholder and user management skills. You must be adaptable, be able to prioritise workload effectively and have strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

About Plan International
Founded in 1937, Plan International is a development and humanitarian organisation that advances children’s rights and equality for girls. We strive for a just world, working together with children, young people, our supporters and partners.
OUR PURPOSE
We strive for a just world that advances children’s rights and equality for girls.
We engage people and partners to:
- Empower children, young people and communities to make vital changes that tackle the root causes of discrimination against girls, exclusion and vulnerability.
- Drive change in practice and policy at local, national and global levels through our reach, experience and knowledge of the realities children face.
- Work with children and communities to prepare for and respond to crises and to overcome adversity.
- Support the safe and successful progression of children from birth to adulthood.
OUR STRATEGY AND AMBITION
To fulfil the promise of the 2030 Global Goals, our 5-year Global Strategy is designed to deliver significant change for girls and boys, putting a special emphasis on gender equality.
We see clear links between fulfilling children’s rights, achieving gender equality and ending child poverty. Every girl and boy has the right to be healthy, educated, protected, valued and respected in their own community and beyond.
We support these rights from when children are born to when they reach adulthood. We work to ensure that girls and boys know their rights, and have the skills, knowledge and confidence to fulfil them. This approach inspires and empowers children and communities to create long-lasting change.
Girls have the power to change the world. Our ambition is to work beside them and together we take action so 100 million girls learn, lead, decide and thrive.
Our global advocacy work not only focuses on international policy but also ensures national governments can meaningfully implement and uphold laws that advance children’s rights and gender equality at community level.
TOGETHER, WE ARE TRANSFORMING LIVES.
