Partner research and due diligence (DD) are key enablers of UNICEF work towards scoping, prospecting and developing private sector engagements. This area of work, managed for the organization by the Private Fundraising and Partnerships Division (PFP) aims to support UNICEF’s effective engagement with business and private philanthropy entities, while at the same time ensuring that interactions with the private sector are pursued in alignment with the organization’s integrity standards, mandate, and priorities and engagement is informed by an adequate, evidence-based assessment of the risks and opportunities that engagements may pose to UNICEF, and ultimately to children.
This function requires specialized support for the profiling, reviewing and assessment of prospect partners (i.e. companies, foundations and major donors) and risk assessment of activities considered by UNICEF for non-commercial interactions (i.e. funding engagements and co-branded partnerships).
To meet the growing need for corporate research and due diligence, UNICEF PFP’s Partnerships Advisory Support Services (PASS) team seeks additional consultant capacity to extend such services in view of the expansion of the organization’s engagement with business and philanthropists globally. The team also requires assistance in researching public opinion trends on social issues, media coverage, and reporting for profiling and analyzing potential high-value partnership prospects.
UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.
Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.
And we never give up.
For every child, hope
