Company presentation

MSF ou Médecins Sans Frontières est une organisation humanitaire internationale qui apporte une aide médicale d'urgence à des populations confrontées à des crises menaçant leur survie, et ce, depuis bientôt cinquante ans. D'ailleurs Médecins Sans Frontières a reçu le prix Nobel de la Paix en 1999. Zones de conflits armés, épidémies, pandémies, catastrophes naturelles ou accès limité aux soins de santé, voici nos terrains d'intervention. Toutes ces situations nécessitent des ressources médicales et logistiques adaptées dont les autorités sanitaires et les ministères de la Santé ne disposent pas, ou pas en nombre suffisant, c'est pourquoi une assistance médicale internationale est essentielle aux populations.

 

Si vous avez entendu parler des actions humanitaires MSF, c'est parce que MSF prend la parole publiquement pour tenter de faire sortir une crise de l'oubli, alerter l'opinion sur des exactions commises loin des caméras, critiquer les insuffisances du système de l'aide, ou lorsque l'assistance est détournée de son objectif premier pour servir des intérêts politiques. 

 

Réunies autour d'une même charte, les équipes de MSF sont composées de personnel médical, logistique et administratif venant de tous les continents. Volontaires internationaux ou employés localement, ces équipes apportent leurs secours dans le respect des principes de l'action humanitaire et de l'éthique médicale.

Chez MSF, nous nous engageons à avoir une culture inclusive qui encourage et soutient les diverses voix de nos membres du personnel. Nous nous efforçons de créer des lieux de travail où des équipes de personnes ayant des origines, des caractéristiques, des perspectives, des idées et des expériences différentes travaillent ensemble pour la mission sociale de MSF afin de créer de meilleurs résultats pour nos patients et les communautés avec lesquelles nous travaillons.

Nous accueillons les candidatures de personnes de tous les sexes, âges, orientations sexuelles, nationalités, races, origines, religions, croyances, capacités et toutes autres caractéristiques de diversité.

MSF ne tolère pas l'exploitation et les abus sexuels, ni aucune forme de discrimination ou de harcèlement, y compris le harcèlement sexuel. Tous les candidats sélectionnés seront donc soumis à une vérification des références.

Depuis sa création par quelques bénévoles en 1981, MSF Suisse et le centre opérationnel de Genève a bien grandi ! Aujourd'hui, plus de quatre cents salariés, aidés de bénévoles soutiennent les 73 projets sur le terrain.

Senior Administration Manager

Switzerland, Geneva, Geneva - CWAS empImg

ClimateWorks Association of Switzerland (CWAS) is a Swiss association (Verein), seated in Geneva and recognised as tax-exempt, established within the ClimateWorks network to channel non-US philanthropic capital into climate action. We are in our founding phase: a small, fast-moving team building the structures, partnerships and processes that will carry significant grantmaking in the years ahead. This is a rare chance to help shape a new climate philanthropy from the ground up.   We are looking for an experienced Senior Administration Manager to be the Executive Director's right hand. This is a broad, senior role in a lean team. You will combine hands-on executive assistant support to the Executive Director with responsibility for day-to-day operations and the coordination of our grant flows. You will be a builder, comfortable creating process where none yet exists, exercising judgement and discretion, and moving between the strategic and the practical in the same day. This is a combined role by design. In the founding phase the executive assistant element will be significant; as the organisation grows and hires, that element is expected to reduce and the operations and grants remit to expand. We are honest about this so that the role attracts someone who is energised, not frustrated, by that breadth.   Key responsibilities: Executive support to the Executive Director - Manage the Executive Director's diary, travel, correspondence and priorities, acting as a trusted gatekeeper. - Prepare briefings, agendas and materials for meetings, and follow up on actions. - Handle sensitive information with complete discretion. Operations - Run day-to-day operations, including office and coworking arrangements, vendors, and coordination of the organisation's tools and systems. - Develop and maintain internal processes, policies and administration as the organisation matures. - Coordinate payroll, human-resources administration and facilities as the team grows, working with our external fiduciary. Grants coordination - Coordinate grant administration with our hosted Donor-Advised Fund (DAF) provider, who carry out grantee due diligence, ensuring smooth process, records and timelines. - Manage regranting and pass-through grant arrangements within the ClimateWorks network, tracking flows, documentation and reporting. - Act as a reliable process point for funders and grantees on administrative matters. Governance, finance and compliance support - Support board and meeting logistics, papers, minutes and the upkeep of registers. - Support finance administration, including invoices, expenses and budget tracking, in coordination with the fiduciary and auditor. - Help the Executive Director stay on top of Swiss administrative, compliance and cross-border coordination requirements. Essential requirements: - The existing right to work in Switzerland (Swiss or European Union / European Free Trade Association national, or a valid Swiss work permit). No sponsorship or relocation is offered. - Based in Canton Geneva, or able and willing to commute to our Geneva office within a reasonable travel time. The role offers the flexibility to work from home and from the office, with the schedule agreed upon with the Executive Director. - Several years in a senior executive assistant, chief-of-staff or operations role supporting a principal or leader, ideally in a founding or lean setting. - A background in the nonprofit or foundation sector. - Experience in grants and finance administration. - Experience working within a cross-border or international organisation. - Fluent English, our working language. - A self-starter who thrives with autonomy, ambiguity and process-building in a start-up environment. Desirable: - French is an asset; German is an asset for federal and Bern-side administration. - Familiarity with Swiss association (Verein) administration, Swiss payroll and social insurance, or tax-exempt entity operations. - Experience with donor-advised funds, regranting or pass-through grant structures. - Experience within a US-affiliated or multi-entity philanthropic structure.   What we offer: - A founding role with genuine breadth, ownership and influence over how a new organisation is built. - Direct partnership with, and access to, the Executive Director. - A competitive salary commensurate with experience and the Swiss nonprofit sector. - The chance to build something that matters for climate.   Important details regarding your application: cinfo has been mandated by CWAS to conduct this recruitment. Applications can only be submitted via the "Apply" button in this vacancy on cinfoPoste; applications sent by email or other channels cannot be considered. Please submit: - your CV; - a motivation letter setting out why this founding role fits you. Further documents and two references will only be requested at a later stage of the process.   Application deadline: 8 November 2026 First interviews: 25 - 27 November 2026 Second interviews: 09 - 11 December 2026   For questions about the position or the recruitment process, please contact Caroline Johnigk, cinfo: recruitment@cinfo.ch
