We are looking for our delegation in South Sudan for a

WASH in School Project Manager

Position Start Date: 1^st of July 2018

Duration: 13 months

Location: Yei - South Sudan

Contractual conditions:

Expatriate contract under Swiss labour code 2’950 CHF (~2’550 €) < > 4'300 CHF (~3’700 €) net /month according to experience x 13, Holidays: 25 days per year. Local accommodation and transportation, Health insurance, accident and medical repatriation insurance, return flight.

Context:

The southern part of the Central Equatoria State, bordering the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda, has become a new State, with Yei as its capital since the territorial reform of October 2015. This new state, which covers 10 counties and has an estimated population of 788,610 people (2014) had been spared from the conflicts and experienced stability which had allowed the intervention of development partners.

The situation deteriorated in 2016, with tensions between the population and the newly deployed Sudan People’s Liberation Army soldiers, and then direct confrontations between the National Army and the SPLM - IO rebels in the whole Yei River State, subsequently to the most recent coup d’état in July 2016 in Juba.

Fighting, but also retaliation by armed groups on civilians, led to a massive flight of people to Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Juba. UNHCR registration figures showed that this crisis has created an influx of 303,434 new South Sudanese refugees in Uganda and 36,897 in the Democratic Republic of Congo, from 8 July 2016 to 13 Nov 2016.

An unknown number of displaced persons were reported to have fled to the bush and the town of Yei, emptied of approximately half of its original inhabitants (48 000 people, according to most recent HCR figures). Yei is now an enclave, controlled by SPLA elements but surrounded by rebels, where 100,000 are trapped (including 58,000 recent Internally Displaced Persons).

HRW documented numerous cases of arbitrary detention and torture of civilians (predominantly men) by government troops, targeted deadly attacks based on ethnicity, killing and rape of civilians by government soldiers and rebels as well as forced displacement and looting of homes and belongings by SPLA soldiers.

Following a request by HEKS in early October 2016, Tdh - Lausanne conducted a rapid needs assessment of the humanitarian situation in Yei in November 2016, which highlighted uncovered priority needs in the sectors of wash, livelihood and protection. The blockade of the city, insecurity on the supply routes, departure of economic operators and forced massive population movements no longer allow access to basic hygiene items or distribution of safe drinking water.

The proposed intervention, which includes protection, wash and livelihood activities, will usefully complement the existing response.
