Global Call for Expression of Interest - Supply Chain/Logistics

The United Nations World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian organization, saving lives in emergencies, building prosperity and supporting a sustainable future for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate change.

There is growing evidence that the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to deepen existing hunger amongst vulnerable populations. Ongoing insecurity, the lack of resources, and constrained access to food are worsening food insecurity. COVID-19 is exacerbating pre-existent regional crises (record global food insecurity & displacement, West Africa, South Africa drought, Insecurity in the Middle East, Venezuela, Desert Locust) potentially leading to unprecedented levels of hunger in 2020/2021.

Some of the Qualifications & Key Requirements are listed below.

• Completion of secondary school education.
• A University degree in Supply Chain Management, Engineering, Economics, Business Administration, Logistics, or a related field is highly desirable;
• At least 3 years of professional experience in the field of humanitarian assistance and/or development work of the United Nations, other international governmental or non-governmental organisations;
• Proven experience in interagency work in crisis response;
