We work with Anglican Church partners and others to see lives empowered and transformed spiritually, materially and socially.

We are seeking a dynamic individual who will be committed to the vision of ABM AID. The PNG CPP Coordinator will be responsible for the management of AID's DFAT-funded Church Partnership Program in Papua New Guinea. The role liaises primarily with Anglicare PNG, a local institution of AID’s church partner, the Anglican Church of Papua New Guinea (ACPNG). This is a contract role (0.6 FTE) which will commence in September 2022 and finish in mid-July 2023, including up to two overseas visits to Papua New Guinea. The position works closely with AID’s Head of Programs and AID’s Program Finance Officer.

The PNG CPP Coordinator will:

1) Manage and coordinate AID’s DFAT-funded Church Partner Program in PNG as agreed with AID’s Head of Programs and in accordance with Partner Program Strategies. This includes:

• Regularly monitoring the progress of the Church Partnership Program via email, telephone and face-to-face visits to partner offices and community sites – ensuring good communication - as directed by AID’s Head of Programs;
• Attending program meetings from time to time both in Australia and overseas;
• Assisting partners in Program Design activities, including development of 3-year program strategy, GEDSI strategy, MEL framework, for the Church Partnership Program Phase 4;
• Assisting partners to prepare and submit Activity Plans, Proposals, Reports and Risk Assessments for DFAT-funded programs, and submit to donors when required;
• Liaising with AID’s Programs Finance Officer to monitor financial management systems, capacity and ensure effective budget management;
• Regularly reviewing program risks and risk management strategies;
• Liaising with DFAT’s Managing Contractor to ensure policy and contract compliance.

2) Maintain good relationships between AID and our PNG partners, and support a relationship between PNG and Australian Anglican churches within the context of the DFAT-funded PNG Church Partnership Program. This includes supporting facilitation of the ACPNG-Anglicare-AID Joint Management Committee meetings.

3) Assess, report on, and strengthen institutional capacity of AID’s PNG partners to better manage community development programs, including the direct supervision of the PNG Capacity Development Facilitator’s role.

4) Prepare regular reports for AID’s Head of Programs, AID Board and other bodies, as requested, on current and planned PNG programs.

5) Assist Anglicare PNG to develop strong links with relevant government departments and other network bodies (e.g. PNG Council of Churches, the Anglican Alliance).
