**ABOUT THE FRED HOLLOWS FOUNDATION**

The Fred Hollows Foundation is an international development organisation working to prevent blindness and restore sight. This year marks The Foundation’s 30th anniversary of carrying on the legacy of Professor Fred Hollows, who believed every person had the right to quality eye care, no matter where they live. The Foundation is known around the world as an organisation that works with purpose and determination. With a reputation for excellence, we are well known for making change happen.

The Foundation has grown to work in more than 25+ countries throughout Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and the Pacific, as well as Australia. The Foundation has restored sight to more than 3 million people worldwide. We have an ambitious five-year strategic plan that aims to take us even closer to realising our vision of a world in which no person is needlessly blind, or vision impaired and Indigenous Australians exercise their right to sight and good health.

We are also proud to announce we were awarded the Employer of Choice Award (Public Sector and NFP) at the 2022 Australian HR Awards. The Foundation is also endorsed and in partnership with The Life You Can Save.

**ABOUT YOU**

You have a proven track record in designing and delivering training and capacity-building activities, particularly in the realm of advocacy and influencing. You can effectively assess and synthesize evidence crucial for advocacy efforts. Your role will involve managing relationships with senior government decision-makers on policy and practice matters in Vietnam, focusing on the national level. Experience in coordinating working groups or networks of partners and organizations with shared interests is highly valued. You possess exceptional negotiation, conflict resolution, and issue management skills, coupled with the ability to cultivate relationships at all levels. Proficiency in both English and Vietnamese, both written and verbal, is essential.

well as managing relationships with key national decision-makers. The role will coordinate closely with Vietnam’s program team to support advocacy planning and implementation of advocacy activities within FHF projects, complementing project-based advocacy objectives with advocacy and engagement at the national level. Besides providing advocacy guidance, technical support, and capacity building to FHF Viet Nam staff and partners, the role also partly supports other FHF programs in the Vietnam cluster (Philippines, Indonesia, Pacific, and Timor Leste).
