Assuming a donor-funded program context, three core things a Chief of Party (CoP) does:

1. Provide overall program leadership and management
- Set strategic direction, translate donor objectives into work plans, supervise day-to-day implementation, and ensure activities achieve intended outcomes and quality.

2. Lead external relations and partnership-building
- Represent the project to donors, government, NGOs and other stakeholders, negotiate agreements, and maintain relationships that enable access, collaboration, and sustainability.

3. Ensure financial, administrative and donor compliance
- Oversee budgets, procurement, staffing and internal controls; ensure timely reporting, M&E, and compliance with donor rules, local laws and organizational policies.
