Deadline: 12 August, 2022
Location: Mali
Oxfam is seeking to fill the position of Country Director.
Oxfam is a humanitarian agency in Africa that responds to the needs of vulnerable people.
Mali has been plunged into an unprecedented political, institutional, socio-economic and security crisis that has seriously undermined development efforts in recent years.
This crisis has profoundly altered social cohesion, destabilised institutions, and democracy, wiped out economic activity and tarnished the image of the country. Poor governance, lack of basic social services, youth unemployment, organised crime, injustice and increased social inequality all contributed to the emergence of the crisis.
Responsibilities
- Lead the country programme and contribute to implement Oxfam’s global strategy and Mali country strategy by providing vision and strategic direction to all of Oxfam’s work in the country
Requirements
- Outstanding, senior leader with substantial management experience gained from working in humanitarian and development work
- Experience, knowledge and passion for working in West Africa and a proven track record of managing multi-disciplinary teams
- Excellent representation and influencing skills
- Ability to represent the organisation at a senior level and substantial experience of successfully delivering strategic and large programmes and working in large and complex humanitarian responses
