Regional Consortium Project Coordinator Sudan, Chad, and South Sudan.

Deine Aufgabenbereiche

We are looking for a regional consortium project coordinator to support the implementation of a multi-country humanitarian project in Sudan, Chad, and South Sudan. The project is funded by the German Federal Foreign Office and implemented by a consortium consisting of Help – Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe e.V. (Help) and Veterinarians without Borders Germany (VSF Germany) together with national implementing partners in the three countries. As reporting and donor communication are coordinated through the German consortium partners, the Regional Consortium Coordinator serves as the central coordination link between the three country teams and the headquarters of Help and VSF Germany. The position focuses on harmonizing processes, consolidating project information, and ensuring the quality and consistency of all submissions before they are shared with headquarters and the donor. The reporting structure is set out in a detailed communication matrix, with the regional coordinator reporting to the program's steering committee and, in particular, to Help’s HQ.
