TERMS OF REFERENCE: REVIEW OF THE FAWE HUMAN RESOURCES MANUAL& ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE

May 25, 2026

1. Background to the Consultancy

The Forum for African Women Educationalists (FAWE Africa) is committed to upholding strong governance systems and effective human resource management to support its mission and operational excellence. As part of this commitment, FAWE conducts a periodic review of its Human Resource (HR) Manual every three years to ensure alignment with evolving labour laws, organizational priorities, and internationally recognized HR standards. This process is critical in maintaining fair, consistent, and legally compliant human resource policies and practices.

In addition to the HR Manual that contains all HR policies and procedures, FAWE recognizes the importance of maintaining an up-to-date and functional Organogram. Over time, organizational growth, program expansion and shifting strategic priorities often lead to changes in roles, reporting lines and functional responsibilities. Without regular review, this can result in overlapping mandates, unclear reporting relationships, gaps in accountability and inefficiencies in coordination and decision-making. A revised and well-aligned organization structure is therefore essential to clearly define roles and responsibilities, strengthen accountability structures, and ensure that the organization’s human resources are optimally configured to deliver on its mandate.

Given these considerations, FAWE seeks to engage a qualified and experienced Human Resources professional to undertake a comprehensive review of both the HR Manual and the organization structure.

2.  Objectives of the Assignment

The primary objectives of this assignment are to ensure that the review delivers clear institutionalvalue by strengthening compliance, improving organizational effectiveness, and providing practical recommendations that FAWE can implement with confidence.

• To conduct a comprehensive review of the FAWE Human Resources Manual, last ratified in March 2023, to ensure full alignment with current labour laws in jurisdictions where FAWE has contracted staff, evolving HR standards, and FAWE’s strategic and operational realities.

• To identify gaps, inconsistencies, and emerging risks in the current HR framework and provide clear, practical, and prioritized recommendations that strengthen people management, accountability, consistency across FAWE Africa and its National Chapters, and ease of implementation.
  • To review the organizational structure to ensure it accurately reflects FAWE’s current andfuture operating model, strengthens clarity of roles, reporting lines, and decision-makingauthority, eliminates overlaps or gaps in accountability, and supports efficient coordination, governance, and organizational performance.

3.  Scope of Work

The scope of this assignment should encompass a thorough review of the FAWE Human Resources Manual to assess its compliance with applicable labour laws, employment regulations, and relevant international human resource standards and practices in jurisdictions where FAWE has contracted staff. This review should also consider how effectively the current manual supports FAWE’s operational needs and governance expectations, drawing on benchmarking against comparable organizations and taking into account feedback already gathered from staff so that therevised framework is both compliant and practically responsive to the realities of the institution.

The scope should also include a review of FAWE’s organizational structure to determine whether it provides clear reporting lines, appropriate accountability structures, and an organizational arrangement that is aligned with both legal requirements and institutional effectiveness. The consultant’s work should result in well-justified proposed revisions to the Human Resources Manual and organizational structure, clearly showing the basis for any recommended amendments, and should culminate in a presentation of the key findings and recommendations to FAWE Africa’s Board.

4.  Deliverables

The consultant will be expected to deliver the following outputs:

1. An inception and review report setting out the consultant’s approach, key findings, identifiedcompliance and governance gaps, priority risks, and a clear rationale for the recommended changes to both the Human Resources Manual and the organization structure.
2. A revised draft of the FAWE Human Resources Manual incorporating all proposed amendments, with provisions clearly aligned to applicable labour laws, current human resource standards, and FAWE’s operational and governance context.
3. A revised organizational structure, accompanied by a brief explanatory note, showing the proposed reporting lines, roles, and accountability structure and demonstrating how the revised arrangement strengthens clarity, coordination, and organizational effectiveness.
4. A presentation to FAWE Africa’s Governance and HR Committee summarizing the review process, key findings, proposed revisions, and the implications of the recommendations to support informed consideration and decision-making.

5.  Duration of Assignment

The assignment is expected to be completed within 4 to 5 weeks, commencing from the date of contract signing.

6.  Required Qualifications

The consultant should possess:

• A relevant degree and valid professional certification.
  • Demonstrated expertise in labour law, HR policy review, and organizational governance.
  • At least 15 years of professional experience in Human Resource work, preferably with INGOs or international organizations.
  • Strong analytical, drafting, and communication skills.
  • Experience in reviewing HR policies and organizational structures.

About Prospera

Prospera International Network of Women’s and Feminist Funds (INWFF) is a membership network of independent women’s and feminist funds that work to redistribute resources to diverse women’s and feminist movements working across the Global South and East.

At present, Prospera’s network brings together 50 women’s and feminist funds giving grants in 173 countries, mobilizing over $200 million USD annually. Prospera’s members work collectively to transform philanthropy around the world by shifting power and putting flexible money directly into the hands of diverse activists, organizations, and movements.

Prospera has a global secretariat team implementing its 10-year strategic framework and supporting organizational stewardship.

About the Role

Working closely with members, partners, and the Secretariat team, the Director will strengthen Prospera’s global influence and collective power by fostering collaboration, political alignment, and movement-centered engagement across regions and thematic areas.

As a member of the Senior Management Team, the Director also contributes to organizational leadership, strategic planning, and cross-functional coordination, helping ensure coherence between network engagement, organizational priorities, and Prospera’s broader mission.

Application closes June 15, 2026

In Development is a new magazine dedicated to exploring how progress happens — or doesn’t happen — in the developing world. We cover global health, development, and the institutions that shape life in lower-income countries.

We publish original articles from researchers, policymakers, and journalists. We publish articles that are too in depth for The Guardian, but vastly more fun than anything you can find in the American Economic Review. As aid budgets are slashed, we think it is more important than ever to have a robust debate on what works – and what doesn’t. We launched in April 2026 and publish weekly.

We’re hiring our first Managing Editor. You’ll work directly with the Editor-in-Chief to edit and shepherd pieces from commission to publication. This will include commissioning pieces and managing contributors, as well as editing and ensuring every piece meets the magazine’s standards for rigour, clarity, and narrative force.

This role is a fit for someone who is a sharp editor and curious about many different issues in development. You must care about the substance, but also style; pieces should be rigorous but readable. A good In Development piece should have both digressions on power calculations and jokes. As an editor, this requires a careful balance; you likely won’t be an expert on every field you cover, so you must be comfortable learning on the job and interacting with subject-matter experts. You will have significant autonomy – you will be commissioning and editing with a high degree of independence – and we expect you to have ownership over your work.

Responsibilities

• Commission and edit longform pieces
  • This will include everything from developmental edits to line editing. You will have full autonomy to commission pieces you think are a good fit for In Development and will be the lead editor on those pieces
  • You may also support writers with less experience in magazine-style journalism.
• Manage the editorial calendar and keep weekly publication on track
• Support operations
  • This may include managing fact-checking and copy-editing, consulting with our designer, supporting social media strategy and (rarely) working with our bookkeeping contractor

What we’re looking for

This role has two distinct categories of requirements.

Foundational qualities — what we need you to bring from day one:

• Demonstrable writing and editing ability. Note that this will be tested in the work test; we do not require you to have professional experience in editing.
• Substantive familiarity with development economics, global health and related fields. A PhD is not a requirement, but you must be able to evaluate the quality of an argument. 
• Comfort working with data and thinking about quantitative methods
• Sound independent judgment — you know when to act and when to confer with the Editor in Chief
• Comfort working with significant autonomy. You will be the second full-time staff member, and will be expected to take on a management role with contractors.
• Ability and willingness to learn many different roles on the fly

Nice to have:

• Experience living in or working in a developing country
• Experience editing academics writing for a general audience
• Existing network in development, policy, or research communities
• Familiarity with social media promotion strategies
• Experience of commissioning and integrating infographics and data visualisation into communications products
• Involvement in building and growing a project, team or venture

We think that there are candidates from a variety of backgrounds that would be good for this role; we do not have particular education or field requirements. We are particularly keen to see candidates based in LMICs.

We welcome applications from candidates anywhere in the world who have the right to work in their country of residence. Note we cannot sponsor visas for this role.

Key tasks:

• Editing and production: structural and line editing of commissioned pieces
• Commissioning and pitch evaluation: developing story ideas, working up pitches with contributors, reading unsolicited submissions
• Contributor management: check-ins with contributing editors and external writers, managing timelines, keeping the calendar
• Promotion and networking: conferences as desired (this role has a travel budget), designing and implementing social media strategy, tracking impact
