Purpose and Objectives:

The overall purpose of the consultancy is to strengthen ActionAid’s advocacy, external profile and storytelling in the Arab Region and Afghanistan, amplifying the voices of women, young people and crisis-affected communities to regional and international audiences. Specific objectives are to:

  • Develop and support the roll-out of an advocacy, profiling and external communications strategy covering both contexts, aligned with ActionAid’s global strategy and country/regional priorities as well as country strategic priorities;
  • Advice and support raising ActionAid’s visibility and credibility with media, policymakers, donors, UN agencies, civil society networks and the public;
  • Produce compelling, ethical, feminist, human-centered stories and communications products that profile ActionAid’s humanitarian and women’s rights work;

  • Map key stakeholders, media outlets, journalists, creative allies, policy processes and advocacy opportunities relevant to ActionAid’s priorities;
  • Develop key messages, narratives and a positioning framework tailored to distinct audiences (media, donors, policymakers, public), including risk-sensitive messaging for the Afghanistan context;
  • Gather, write and edit human-centered stories, case studies, op-eds, blogs, press releases, briefing notes and social media content, working through country teams and local facilitators where direct access is not possible;
  • Support media engagement, including building media relationships, drafting press materials, pitching stories and preparing spokespersons;
  • Plan and support ActionAid’s engagement in key advocacy moments both nationally, regionally and globally during the consultancy period;

Expert Application Advice

When tailoring your CV for NGO, don’t just list your tasks—show how you solved real problems. If the ad mentions les compétences demandées dans l'annonce, include a brief example of a time you used that skill to improve a campaign or team outcome. This makes your application stand out.

International NGO — NGO recruiters read your cover letter to assess your understanding of the humanitarian mission, not just technical skills. Show you know the country field context and the specific challenges of this sector.

Campaign portfolio — Prepare 2-3 campaign examples with objectives, channels used, and results (reach, engagement, conversions). Note: communication recruiters systematically check your personal social profiles.

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
