Position Start Date: 16.06.2024Type of contract: CDMDuration: 12 monthsLocation: Maiduguri, NigeriaStatus: Unaccompanied Terre des hommes does not set closing date for this position. Recruitment is on-going until the position is filled Tdh:Terre des hommes (Tdh), founded in 1960, is an independent, neutral and impartial Swiss organisation committed to bringing meaningful and lasting change to the lives of children and youth, especially to those most exposed to risks. To make a difference, we focus on the areas of maternal and child health, children and youth migration, and access to justice. Context:Nigeria is a multicultural country with great disparities between the southern regions of the country, which had experienced and still experiences growth and development and the northern regions, seriously affected after 13 years of violent insurgency, leading to massive humanitarian needs for millions of people and provoking terrible socio-economic inequalities in the region for an important part of the population. In the northeast, especially in Borno, Adamawa and Yobe (BAY states), the conflict stemming from the insurgency of non-state armed groups (NSAGs) in continues as intensely as ever. The attacks and insecurity have displaced millions of people, devastated agricultural production and other livelihoods, cut off essential services, and caused a crisis of protection. In 2022, some 8.4 million people of the BAY states will need humanitarian aid. Of these, 2.2 million are internally displaced; 1.5 million are returnees who lack essential services and livelihoods; and 3.9 million are members of communities affected by their hosting of IDPs. About 730 000 people are located in areas inaccessible to international humanitarian actors. Although some retain or have developed a degree of coping mechanisms, most rely at least in part on humanitarian aid.Tdh has first been established in Abeokuta, in 2008, and implemented development programmes, such as Migration programs. Activities in the South of Nigeria have been closed in 2019. In order to respond to the Lake Chad Basin Crisis, Tdh has established a country office since mid-2017, in Maiduguri, Borno State. Tdh contributes to the crisis' response by providing child protection services, education in emergencies, wash and nutrition assistance to most vulnerable children and their families.Moreover, in the line of its expertise and programing positioning at the worldwide level, Tdh also analyzes the situation, as well as the potential response to the crisis on a mid-term basis, regarding the early recovery and nexus approach. Indeed, given its core competencies in term of deployment of a response for primary needs, implementation of development projects, support to the public services and community/social approach of the beneficiaries, Tdh thinks that the organization could have an added value on all the dynamics/programs related to the stabilization or the structuration in other regions of Nigeria. In terms of Support:The Support Services Unit is located in Maiduguri, as the rest of the country coordination.Each sector of the unit (HR, Fin, Log and HoB) is supervised by the Support Services Coordinator.

Candidates are nevertheless encouraged to apply asap. Tdh :Terre des hommes Foundation (Tdh), with headquarters in Lausanne and an office in Zurich, is the leading Swiss organisation for child rights. In 2022, we supported 2.6 million children and members of their communities around the world. We trained people who in turn supported a further 4.5 million children and members of their communities. Context :Terre des hommes (Tdh) has operated in Lebanon since 1977. With a population of 6.8 million people, of which 1.2 million are refugees, Lebanon is a country with formidable challenges.In recent years, the country has been affected by compounded crisesspecifically, a political crisis coupled with an economic and financial crisis, followed by COVID-19 pandemic and the explosion at the Port of Beirut on August 4, 2020.The multiple ongoing economic, social and political crises plunged over 80% of the population in Lebanon into poverty, with Syrian and Palestinian refugees among the most affected. 91% of Syrian refugees live below the extreme poverty line and humanitarian assistance is their main income source.The deterioration of the economy and devaluation of the local currency leads to families being unable to access basic services, such as transport, sanitation, education, and health. Limited access to health services increased the risks of spreading diseases such as Covid-19 and, Cholera.As a consequence, the child protection situation has deteriorated, and negative coping mechanisms are increasing. Child marriage and violence against children increased during the last year, while Child labour became the most common child protection risk. Responsibilities :·         Under the supervision of the Deputy to the Operations Manager he/she ensures the proper functioning of operations at the national level; as such he/she represents the Foundation in the assignment country.·         He/She directs and supervises all activities connected to the Tdh projects in his/her assignment country in line with the SP (Strategic Plan) and strategic orientations.·         He/She represents Tdh (including legally) and promotes the entirety of its remit in the assignment country.·         He/She demonstrates ethical and exemplary leadership in order to maintain the Foundation's good reputation and leads all the delegation's collaborators in a shared vision in compliance with the Foundation's strategic orientations.·         In collaboration with the programs and expertise, he/she develops the Strategic Plan of the Delegation's operations in compliance with the general reference framework.·         He/She develops and guarantees the implementation of the Delegation's Annual Operational Plans (AOPs) in compliance with the Strategic Plan and internal processes (budgetary management, HR and logistics management, quality and accountability).·         He/She guarantees the implementation of an operational risk-management system for the Delegation.·         He/She supervises and supports all staff attached to the Delegation.·         He/She ensures the Delegation's internal and external communications.·         He/She feels accountable to the beneficiaries, collaborators and donors.·         He/She makes sure that his/her teams and partners have learned the security policies and the general code of conduct and comply with them at all times.·         He/She is responsible for the security of the Tdh teams under his/her responsibility and is in charge of the security rules and the contingency plans of the country or countries under his/her responsibility.·         Manages and assumes ultimate responsibility for the risks and access aspects of the mission. The full job description will be shared with the candidates selected to start the recruitment process. Profile : Education :Master University degree in relevant field Experience & Competencies :·         Minimum 5 years' experience in a similar position.·         Prior experience in the Mena Region.·         Reliable and independent with a strong organizational capacity, decision-making and conflict resolution.·         Experience in developing partnerships, identifying new opportunities, and mobilizing resources.·         Experience of working with institutional and private donors.·         Experience in successfully managing various forms of partnership with National and International NGOs.·         Knowledge of Child Protection, A2J programs.·         Excellent interpersonal qualities: integrity, a capacity to judge and diplomacy.·         Proactive, rigorous and a results-driven attitude. Languages :Excellent oral and writing skills in English, Arabic an asset. IT :High proficiency with Microsoft Office SuiteConditions:·       Swiss Labour Law contract·       Gross monthly salary between CHF 5'300.- and CHF 5'700.- depending on experience – x 13,36 months·       Insurances: sickness, accident, repatriation·       Annual leaves: 25 days/year·       Flights to duty station and back Tdh Global Code of Conduct and Risk Management Policies :·       Fully complies with Tdh's Global Code of Conduct and systematically reports any breach to the Code through the whistleblowing procedure: raises awareness within the Foundation on abuse and violence and the rights deriving therefrom, respecting the rights and dignity of children, members of the communities and our own Staff·       Commits to respecting Risk Management Policies including: Safeguarding Policies (Child Safeguarding Policy, Policy on the Protection against Sexual Exploitation and the Directive on Staff Misconduct at the Workplace), Safety and Security Policy and Anti-Fraud/Corruption and Prevention of the Financing of Criminal Activities Policies·       Commits to reducing the risk of abuse and harm by developing a culture of open and informed leadership within the organization and in our work with children and the communities in which we intervene in. We offer an exciting and varied work, useful and meaningful, in a team that wants to make a difference for vulnerable children. Are you interested?

Position Start Date :  01.05.2024Duration : 12 months with possible extensionLocation : Kabul, AfghanistanStatus : Unaccompanied Terre des hommes does not set closing dates for this position; recruitment is on-going until the position is filled. Candidates are nevertheless encouraged to apply as early as possible. Tdh :Terre des hommes Foundation (Tdh), with headquarters in Lausanne and an office in Zurich, is the leading Swiss organisation for child rights. In 2022, we supported 2.6 million children and members of their communities around the world. We trained people who in turn supported a further 4.5 million children and members of their communities. Context :Terre des hommes (Tdh) has been working in Afghanistan since 1995. In 2023, Tdh provided humanitarian assistance and protection to very vulnerable children and families who often did not have at all access to basic services in 4 provinces: Nangarhar, Herat, Kandahar and Kabul. In Afghanistan, Tdh's work focuses on two main components: general health centered around maternal and child health and child protection. Since August 2021 and the regain of power by the Taliban, Tdh has also integrated a multi-purpose cash component, sub-grants and vocational training  to meet the basic needs of the population. Indeed, due to the economic crisis generated by this political unrest, combined with international sanctions and constant natural disasters, the entire public system has collapsed. Today, the population depends almost exclusively on humanitarian aid - which is diminishing - to meet its basic needs as well as to access health and education services. It is estimated that, out of a population of over 42 million people, 29.2 million are in need of humanitarian aid. As families struggle to make ends meet, children and women suffer directly from the consequences of the deteriorating overall humanitarian situation. Negative coping mechanisms include the reduction of expenditure considered non-essential, such as maternal, newborn and child health care (MNCH), and/or the involvement of children in harmful practices to contribute to household expenditure, in particular child labour for boys and early marriage for girls. As well as facing a dramatic political, economic and human and women rights context, while humanitarian space continues to shrink, Afghanistan is also having to cope with a steady increase in the number of internally displaced persons and returnees. A humanitarian disaster is currently unfolding on the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan, as undocumented Afghans are being sent back from Pakistan. It is estimated that this current situation will develop into a protracted humanitarian crisis that Afghanistan will have to face in the coming months and year. Responsibilities :·       Under the supervision of the Head of Delegation, he/she ensures the roll-out of the program strategy in his/her field of expertise at the national level as aligned with the delegation strategy and plan of action, and as such he/she is the guarantor of the national impact of Terre des hommes in his/her field of expertise.·       He/She is in charge of developing, improving and consolidating, and improving the implementation of programming across the country.·       He/She is in charge of overseeing specialized program coordinators and ensuring quality control and sound financial management.·       He/She coordinates the development of new proposals with a focus on the technical approach and staffing structure and contributes to securing the required resources (financial and human) in the delegation with the support services involved.·       He/She contributes to the coordination with existing donors and the development of partnerships with new donors.·       He/She contributes to steering the program by implementing and following up indicators, especially concerning the cross-cutting themes of his/her field.·       He/She develops and fosters innovation in the program in the country.·       He/She supports the implementation of the insurance system and quality control for the projects of the program in the country.·       He/She coordinates closely with counterparts in the regional office and at HQ to discuss innovations, partnership, and the sharing of knowledge of his/her program in the country.·       He/She is in charge of running and developing the program's strategic partnerships in the Delegation.·       He/She is responsible for and accountable to beneficiaries, collaborators and donors.·       He/She ensures close coordination with the Support Service Coordinator, the Safety & Security Manager and the Grants & Reporting Manager to ensure the smooth implementation of programming and address issues as they arise in a timely manner.·       He/She ensures that teams and partners have learned the security policies and the general code of conduct and comply with them at all times. The full job description will be shared with the candidates selected to start the recruitment process. Profile : Education :Master's degree in management, social science, international development, humanitarian assistance and/or other relevant field. Experience & Competencies :·     Minimum 10 years of progressively responsible experience in program management, design developing and leading integrated and complex program portfolios – preferably experience in Afghanistan or similar context.·     Proven experience in both humanitarian and/or conflict affected countries settings.·     At least 5 years' experience in people management with proven leadership experience in managing multi-disciplinary teams of diverse cultural backgrounds, fostering a positive working environment, and manage issues sensitively and diplomatically.·     Experience in project development and management;
