Coordinator, Consortium Full Time

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 191-member National Societies. The overall aim of 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.” IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.

IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.

The core function of the Country Cluster Delegation (CCD) for Central African Republic and Chad is to strengthen the capacities and support the cluster National Societies in disaster and crisis prevention, response, and recovery, as well as other key thematic/programmatic areas defined by key pan-African initiatives. The CCD also strengthens collaboration among Movement partners by facilitating context analysis and coordination toward common and harmonized approaches, alignment of plans, effective use of resources, and national development to carry out their humanitarian mandates.

The Sustaining Employment, Careers, and Resilience for Community Health Workforce (SECURE) program is a four-year initiative led by the IFRC and Mastercard Foundation, implemented in partnership with the Central African Red Cross (CRCA) and the Ministry of Health in the Central African Republic (CAR). It aims to professionalize and economically empower 11,824 Community Health Workers (CHWs) across the CAR, with a focus on employability, entrepreneurship, ecosystem strengthening, and coordination. The program is implemented through a multi-tiered consortium governance structure, with the Country Consortia Coordination Team (CCCT) at its core, supported by regional and global advisory mechanisms.

The Consortium Coordinator provides strategic leadership and coordination of the SECURE/REACH program in CAR. The incumbent will ensure effective implementation, alignment with national and regional strategies, and strong collaboration among all stakeholders, including government ministries, Red Cross partners, private sector actors, and civil society. The role fosters inclusive, multi-stakeholder engagement and governance, while ensuring high-quality, timely, and compliant program implementation across all consortium partners. It also champions capacity strengthening, localization, and risk management to promote sustainable impact and accountability.
