We also support the fundamental belief that children should have a voice and role in shaping their futures and the futures of their communities.</span><span style="font-family:Yantramanav;color:#1D1C1D;"><br> <br> <span style="background:#F8F8F8;">Over eight decades, the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has built an unprecedented global support system for the world’s children, and has boldly taken on the biggest, seemingly impossible challenges facing children. UNICEF relentlessly works day in and day out to deliver the essentials that give every child an equitable chance in life: health care and immunizations, safe water and sanitation, nutrition, education, emergency relief and more. UNICEF USA advances the global mission of UNICEF by rallying the American public to support the world’s most vulnerable children.</span><br> <br> <span style="background:#F8F8F8;">We know that sustainable change is attainable, but it can’t be achieved alone. It takes a committed team – individuals, governments, corporations, volunteers and staff – who demonstrate a relentless commitment to working tirelessly, day in and day out in some of the toughest, hardest to reach places. Big problems need big solutions, and we harness our collective, global voice and energy to do more good, in more places for children. We will never stop supporting UNICEF to develop smarter, more cost-effective solutions; scaling up proven, data-driven programs; and harnessing new technologies to create measurable change for children.</span><br> <br> <span style="background:#F8F8F8;">UUSA is organized under the laws of New York State as a not-for-profit corporation. As such, UUSA is a tax-exempt organization as defined under Section 501C(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and is governed by an independent, non-salaried Board of Directors.</span></span></p><p style="margin:0in;line-height:14.0pt;font-size:15px;font-family:Yantramanav;"><br></p><p style="margin:0in;line-height:14.0pt;font-size:15px;font-family:Yantramanav;"><strong><span style="font-family:Yantramanav;">Position Description</span></strong></p><p style="margin:0in;line-height:14.0pt;font-size:15px;font-family:Yantramanav;"><span style="font-family:Yantramanav;color:black;">The Manager, Corporate and Civil Society Partnerships (CCSP) plays a critical role in driving the growth, visibility, and impact of some of UNICEF USA’s highest-value partnerships.
