Posted on Mon 11th Nov, 2019 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


International NGO Safety Organisation (INSO) - Founded in 2011, the International NGO Safety Organisation (INSO) is a British charity that supports the safety of aid workers by establishing safety coordination platforms in insecure contexts.

Abuja is also the base for INSO’s flagship training team.

We are currently seeking an experienced humanitarian professional to lead our team as Director- Lake Chad Basin, based in Abuja with frequent travel in north-east Nigeria and Cameroon and occasional travel to Niger and Chad.

Major Responsibilities
  • Coordination of all staff and resources in Nigeria and Cameroon country offices including; internal coordination, grants management, host government regulatory registration, donor reporting and representation of INSO towards stakeholders.
  • Provide quality control and direct contributions to the delivery of INSO services including; production of information and analysis (written biweekly and n situational reports, etc.), high-level engagement and briefings, surveys, training and capacity building, and emergency support as needed.
  • Programme management, including annual funding strategy, budget management, and contractual compliance. Direct grant and contract management responsibilities.
  • Compliance with INSO’s global policy in operational and administrative areas.
Mandatory Requirements
  • Previous experience as an NGO Country Director or equivalent management experience in conflict/post-conflict contexts (at least 3-5 years).
  • Experience with management of multi-donor projects. Knowledge of donor policies and procedures (DG ECHO, DFID, SDC, USAID-OFDA). This includes PCM, budget management and monitoring, donor liaison and reporting.
  • English fluency (written and spoken) with good French working knowledge
  • Master's Degree-level of education or equivalent work experience in a relevant field
Proven Analytical Skills:
  • Solid understanding of principles and practices in broad humanitarian action, NGO safety and risk management, humanitarian access, and civil-military coordination.
  • Excellent networking, diplomatic, and representative communication skills.
Preferred Characteristics:
  • Minimum of one year of recent experience in the Lake Chad Basin area (Nigeria, Niger, Cameroon, Chad)
  • Direct experience and involvement in a crisis management role.
  • Experience in a highly visible interagency role.
  • Detailed understanding of INSO mandate and services.

  • Organised and diligent work ethic
  • Effective communication and creative thinking
  • Cultural and situational sensitivity
  • Calm demeanour in stressful or crisis situations
  • Flexibility to cover crisis situations during and outside working hours.
