Flexibility and adaptability are key traits for success in this collaborative and sometimes unpredictable environment.

ORGANIZATION SUMMARY

World Relief is a global Christian humanitarian organization whose mission is to boldly engage the world’s greatest crises in partnership with the church. The organization was founded in the aftermath of World War II to respond to the urgent humanitarian needs of war-torn Europe. Since then, for 80 years, across 100 countries, World Relief has partnered with local churches and communities to build a world where families thrive and communities flourish. Today, organizational programming focuses on humanitarian and disaster response, community strengthening and resilience, and refugee & immigrant services and advocacy.

POSITION SUMMARY

The Program Lead, Humanitarian Response will provide leadership for World Relief’s role as co-lead on an anticipated multi-country humanitarian consortium project. In this position the Project Lead will have primary responsibility for a rapid response mechanism that responds to sudden onset humanitarian needs in complex fragile contexts. This position will lead the design, process, implementation, monitoring and accountability of the rapid response mechanism; represent World Relief in consortium project management and coordination structures; and support effective implementation across World Relief country programs participating in the project. The Project Lead will support, monitor, troubleshoot, coordinate, and strengthen implementation through close collaboration with Regional Directors, country leadership, technical teams, finance, security, safeguarding, and program staff in multiple countries in World Relief. As the project is co-led by other organizations, the Project Lead will manage World Relief’s activities in close communication and collaboration with the other co-leads and with the project Prime.
