MDM recruits 01 Emergency Human Resources Coordinator
To fulfill its mission of assistance to victims of conflicts, epidemics or natural disasters, OCG has created an Emergency Pool, whose members are experienced individuals capable of evaluating a humanitarian crisis, opening, closing and coordinating emergency projects.
The Emergency Human Resources Coordinator is a key member of this pool and reports directly to the Emergency Coordinator, as well as to the E-Cell HR Referent as the functional supervisor.
The successful candidate is expected to:
- Deploy rapidly in all contexts set by the Emergency cell
- Have the flexibility to assume different HR roles according to operational needs (HR Coordinator but also HR/Administration Manager)
- Gap fill in regular cells if required.
As a member of the Emergency Pool, the Emergency HR Coordinator must be available for deployment within 48 hours for short-term emergency interventions. You will be part of a multidisciplinary response team -including medical, paramedical, and support staff – mobilized for emergencies such as epidemics, armed conflicts, natural disasters, and other acute crises. You may also be involved in exploratory missions, short-term assignments within regular missions or gap filling in the Emergency Cell in Geneva HQ.
