Are you an experienced, dynamic, senior professional with excellent strategy, operations, negotiation and leadership skills? Would you be stimulated by applying and enhancing those skills through the leadership, oversight and development of core operations functions within one of the largest providers of relief and development assistance in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)? If so, The International Rescue Committee (IRC) has an excellent and very rewarding opportunity for you.
With an annual budget of approximately US$ 80 million, an overall portfolio in excess of $320 million, and over 1,000 staff, our programs support Congolese communities and institutions (in seven of the DRC’s eleven provinces) in the areas of governance and community development, health, gender-based violence, education, and emergency response. Reporting to the Regional Director, as Director of Operations (DofO) you will be a core member of the regional management team, overseeing the operations of the IRC’s largest program portfolio. The DofO will be play an essential role in ensuring that the DRC Regional Unit fulfills six core roles: general management of DRC Programs; setting and implementing organizational strategy; overseeing program and operations systems quality; developing and mentoring staff; developing new business; and advocacy and representation. The DofO will be responsible for managing the Regional Unit, in coordination with the Regional Director and will directly supervise two senior positions, to include a total operations team of seven staff. The DofO will also represent the DRC program to IRC headquarters on operational issues and participate in senior-level operations meetings. The DofO will provide strong operational support and oversight critical to the delivery of quality programs and will be achieved by: promoting operations and program linkages and strategic planning; developing operations policies and processes to ensure ongoing efficient, effective support and compliance across the country; institutionalizing staff development programs and systematically identifying and minimizing operational risks. The DofO will also lead the implementation of IRC global operations initiatives, respond to and address audit findings related to operations functions, and contribute to proposal and budget development to ensure inclusion of appropriate levels of operations resources. Think you have what it takes? Then join us and make a difference to lead the way “from harm to home”. REQUIREMENTS:
