We’ve been active in the DRC since 1994, working to reduce the abandonment and separation caused by deepening poverty and ongoing conflict. In this time, we’ve demobilised children associated with armed forces and have reunited thousands of children with their families. Progress has also been made in areas such as health, education and protection. However, the country’s challenges continue to be immense - which is why we need you.
A high profile source of leadership, you’ll manage, develop and drive forward our work in key provinces across the country. From resource management and staff co-ordination to policy advocacy and international representation, you’ll ensure strategic, flexible development in all areas. You’ll be aware of, and be responsive to the region’s constantly changing political environment.
With substantial international management experience and exceptional leadership skills, you’re ready to make the impact we need. You’re a strategic thinker and an effective communicator - fluent in English and French and comfortable representing at the highest levels. You have risk assessment experience too, gained within an unstable and complex environment.
Our selection processes reflect our commitment to the protection of children from abuse. Our people are as diverse as the challenges we face.
Due to the urgent nature of this position, applications will be reviewed as received and prior to the closing date and an appointment may be made.
