About the Role
Tetra Tech International Development is offering an exciting opportunity to join the Land Facility programme as a Project Officer. This fixed-term role until 31 March 2026 is ideal for someone early in their career with some experience in international development, looking to gain further expertise in programme and project management across diverse geographies on a large-scale global programme.

The Land Facility is a £50m, seven-year global programme funded by the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office, focused on advancing effective and sustainable land governance reforms in Sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. The programme supports economic growth, rural livelihoods, conflict prevention, women’s rights, and environmental protection.

As a Project Officer, you will primarily support the management and delivery of short-term Strategic Support Projects (SSPs), which are discrete projects ranging from £50-250K, lasting approximately 6-7 months, and covering various thematic areas and geographies. Your role will involve project management, administration, contracting, reporting, financial oversight, and coordination with multiple stakeholders to ensure timely and high-quality delivery.

This role offers the chance to work in a fast-paced, flagship international development programme, supporting impactful projects that contribute to sustainable land governance and economic growth.
