Context of the mission MÉDECINS DU MONDE (MDM) FRANCE is an International Non-Governmental Organization (INGO) involved in humanitarian interventions, operating in Ethiopia since 1986 in different types of health projects from long-term interventions to emergency response.
The mission in Ethiopia is undergoing structural changes in 2021 with previous bases and activities in Somali Region being handed over to Medecins du Monde Germany. In addition, the geographical coverage of Medecins du Monde France in Ethiopia is expending with, in addition to continuous operations in Afar region, new bases and projects being set up in Oromia Region (around Chinaksen) and in Tigray (around Mekelle).
This means that two new bases are being created with new operational teams (support and program/medical staff). The HR Manager, based in the country office in Ethiopian Capital, will have a strategic role to recruit and integrate the news staff so that our services (medical, Sexual, and reproductive health, psychosocial support, training to medical staff and others) are provided by our program team without human resource gap. The HR manager will also be key in ensuring the needs of the current staff are met in terms of training, staff development, and assessment. They will also manage the visa needs of international staff and visitors.
