Experience with donor contracts is particularly valuable. The organisation is seeking candidates who understand the financial and reporting implications of agreements with government agencies, United Nations agencies and private donors, especially in humanitarian emergency response funding.

Candidates should therefore be comfortable working within safeguarding policies and standards and supporting an environment that prioritises dignity, inclusion and accountability.
