Tearfund has been working in South Sudan since the 1970s through partners and has been directly operational since 1998. The combined partner and direct operations are based in former Jonglei state Juba, Central & Western Equatoria and Northern Bahr el Ghazal.
Tearfund is offering the opportunity for an experienced Staff Welfare Manager to join Tearfund's team in this challenging and fast paced environment, working with a fantastic team of professionals committed to serve those the most vulnerable in one of the most difficult humanitarian contexts in the world. We are looking for an experienced and committed individual to provide strategic safety support to our operational and partnership work in South Sudan.
Tearfund is, therefore, seeking someone with proven experience as a Staff Welfare and Safety Manager in highly insecure environments to provide advisory support and analysis to the Country Director and programme managers. Candidates need strong interpersonal skills and should be able to provide safety training to staff of various levels of understanding.
Excellent written and spoken English is essential.
Applicants must be committed to Tearfund's Christian beliefs. All posts involve potential contact with children and vulnerable adults and the recruitment process will include specific checks related to safeguarding issues. This is an unaccompanied post.
