Duty Station : Jakarta, Indonesia
Report to : Regional Coordinator Urban Futures Indonesia
Duration : 1 (one) year

Functional Context
The LLCO will be line-managed by the UF Regional Coordinator, who will provide strategic oversight and support and work closely with the Urban Food Systems & Advocacy Lead. The LLCO will liaise and support their regional counterparts (regional LLCO in South Africa and Latinoamerica) to ensure vital cross-learning, strategic and coherent communications across the program, and a cohesive monitoring and evaluation plan, under the supervision of the Global Design, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (DMEL) officer.
It is anticipated that the LLCO role will take approximately 60% on Communication, 10% on M&E, and 30% on L&L, although these will overlap in practice.
Communications refer to ensuring that all communication activities are aligned with the program's communication strategy and with Hivos' corporate Communication while offering robust communication support for the regional office and the program, supporting, and coordinating local partners (to ensure the visibility of the program and its partners). Occasionally organizes online and offline communication activities and develops and disseminates communication materials, following Hivos and donors' guidelines.
L&L in this context refers to activities and processes towards boosting collaboration, exchange, learning, collective intelligence, innovation, and the application and gathering of new knowledge within the UF program network of partners, rightsholder groups (especially young people), and Hivos global and regional teams, as well as beyond the program across Yayasan and Hivos Global, with the funder, and through relevant external networks and platforms. This position will work closely with the South African (SAF) LLCO officer as this project's Linking and Learning (L&L) team lead.
M&E within the L&L framework will provide efficient and coherent data and valuable and timely information for decision-making, communications, and L&L activities. While these tools and methods are contextually appropriate for the program's stakeholders, alignment will be ensured with relevant Yayasan and Hivos Global methods, tools, and strategies (e.g., the KM&L strategy, M&E framework) and the donor DMEL way of working.
