COOPI recruits 01 Administrator

COOPI in Chad

COOPI has been implementing humanitarian and development actions in Chad since 1994. The first interventions were carried out in the East and South of Chad. With the start of the crisis in Darfur, COOPI gradually strengthened its projects along the border with Sudan and was one of the first NGOs deployed in this area. COOPI then carried out a number of projects in other regions of the country in order to respond to various humanitarian emergencies.

The main current sectors of intervention are: management of malnutrition, maternal and child health (including gender-based violence), food security, natural resource management and local development.

In terms of donors, COOPI works mainly with the delegation of the European Union, ECHO and UN agencies (UNFPA, FAO, WFP, UNICEF).

At present, the COOPI structure in Chad is made up of:

an office for coordinating national activities, in N’Djamena;
a base in the Dar Sila region, in the east of the country (Goz Beida);
a base in the Lac (Bol) region.

Job Context

The post holder will be based in Bol, Lac region, in the COOPI base. She/he will be able to use COOPI logistics equipment according to the provisions of logistics and security coordination. She/He will be required to follow the rules of the country regulations for expatriate staff and the indicated security protocol.

The Lake region is currently in conflict and is infiltrated by Boko-Haram elements. The security rules will therefore be very restrictive and the expatriate will be required to follow them scrupulously. She/he will travel periodically to N’Djamena.
