ABOUT THE CLV CLUSTER
The CLV Cluster is comprised of three countries; Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. The CLV Cluster is newly created as part of the Oxfam global change process. The CLV Cluster links programs, people, funding resources and knowledge in three Mekong countries to optimise delivery of our Global Strategy Framework and the Asia Regional Strategy, and to achieve operational efficiencies.

The team will support program staff to ensure contextualised approaches for resource mobilisation across the Cluster countries. The Team will lead on the development and implementation of a learning and improvement strategy on business development for the whole CLV which will benefit teams across the 3 countries to deliver on CLV business development targets.
