Description de l'offre

Organizational Context
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 192-member National Societies. The overall aim of the IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by National Societies with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.” The IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.
IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member National Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of the IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality.
IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into three main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services.
IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster delegation and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.
The British Red Cross (BRC) opened its regional office in Dakar in 2015. Since then, BRC has been supporting the implementation of a variety of programmes in the region. Current programmes mainly focus on Mali, Mauritania, Niger, Burkina Faso and Chad.
BRC’s support in the Sahel evolves around 4 key themes: Food Security and Livelihoods, Migration, Cash Preparedness and Disaster Management (Forecast-based Financing). NSD is central to all programmes. Given the similarities and cross-border dimensions of humanitarian crises in the Sahel, our focus is on multi-country programmes and regional approaches, to ensure a solid basis of capacities and skills development for the Host National Societies (HNS).

Job Purpose
The role will provide guidance to the Sahel National Societies in the assessment and prioritisation of National Society Development needs and in the development of strategies, systems and structures to address these needs and to build a more solid and sustainable organisation.

Niger is one of the 14 pilot countries for a global Movement coordination, shared leadership and shared planning initiative. This involves developing and delivering a single multi-year country program support plan with common outcomes.The development of this plan starts with a comprehensive and strategic analysis of the National Society’s internal and external working environments and the identification of NSD priorities. Hence supporting this process will form the main focus of the initial six months of this role.

The NSD Advior will be based in Dakar, with frequent travelling across the region as required, particularly to Niger.

Job Duties and Responsibilities

Job Duties and Responsibilities (continued)
