Communication & Media Coordinator

Opportunity Overview The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is hiring a Communication & Media Coordinator to lead its public engagement work in Chad, based in the capital N'Djamena with frequent travel throughout the country. This role oversees the production of all communication materials, manages media relations at the national level, and positions IRC as a leading humanitarian actor in Chad. The coordinator supervises a small team including a Communication and Media Officer, communication interns, and service providers, reporting directly to the Country Director. IRC has operated in Chad since 2004, responding initially to the Darfur refugee crisis and now delivering integrated programs across health, reproductive health, nutrition, water and sanitation, protection, women's empowerment with a focus on gender-based violence, and economic recovery through cash transfers and income-generating activities. The organization works closely with government stakeholders and line ministries to align its actions with national policies. This position is central to telling the story of that work to national audiences, donors, and the media. Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, IRC is one of the world's largest humanitarian NGOs, operating in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities.

The Chad office is part of this global network, coordinating with headquarters communication teams while maintaining its own national strategy. The position is unaccompanied, meaning the staff member lives in shared housing without family, and operates in a yellow phase security context, which indicates elevated risk requiring specific security protocols. N'Djamena is a bustling Sahelian capital where French is the working language, and the role demands excellent command of both French and English. The work involves regular field visits to project sites across the country, often in remote areas where IRC delivers services to refugee and host communities. The climate is hot and dry for much of the year, with a short rainy season, and the cost of living in N'Djamena is moderate compared to other regional capitals, though goods and services can be limited. Benefits - Unaccompanied position with shared housing provided - Security protocols and support in a yellow phase context - Opportunity to work with a global humanitarian organization operating in 40+ countries - Direct reporting line to the Country Director with supervisory responsibility over a communication team - Field travel across Chad to document program impact Eligibility - University degree in communication, marketing, public relations, journalism, social sciences, or a related field - Minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in a similar role, preferably with international NGOs - Excellent command of French and English, both spoken and written - Proven experience in communication, media relations, and event organization - Strong organizational and prioritization skills - Good knowledge of social media platforms - Ability to develop storytelling content and impact stories highlighting program results and community experiences - Proficiency in MS Office; design skills are desirable - Photography and video skills - Commitment to GEDI principles (Gender, Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion) - Ability to work independently and as part of a team Required Documents - CV or resume - Cover letter demonstrating relevant experience in communication and media relations - Proof of university degree in a relevant field - References from previous employers, preferably from international NGO work How to Apply 1.

Deputy Team Lead

Deputy Team Lead at International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Sudan Opportunity Overview The International Rescue Committee is hiring a Deputy Team Lead to oversee a major humanitarian program in Sudan, with the project running from October 2026 for 2.5 years. This senior position carries primary responsibility for supervising, supporting, and mentoring program sector technical leads across Health, Nutrition, WASH, Food Security and Livelihoods, Protection, and Education. The Deputy Team Lead ensures technical coherence across all program components and steps in for the Team Lead when they are absent. The IRC has a long history in Sudan. It operated there from 1981 to 2009, then re-registered in November 2019 and opened a main office in Khartoum, with programming beginning in 2020. In 2024, the organization expanded into non-SAF-controlled regions of Darfur and South Kordofan. It is currently active in Al Jazeera, White Nile, Gedaref, River Nile, Blue Nile, South Kordofan, West Darfur, Central Darfur, and North Darfur states, including a satellite office in Tunaydbah in Gedaref. The IRC's focus is on vulnerable individuals affected by conflict and crisis, including women, children, the elderly, persons with disabilities, refugees, mixed populations, and host communities. The context is dire. Since war broke out in April 2023 between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the Rapid Support Forces, violence has continued for nearly two and a half years, displacing over 12 million people across all 18 states. More than 30 million people now require humanitarian assistance, and around 25 million face acute food insecurity, including 770,000 children suffering from severe acute malnutrition. Damage to infrastructure, supply shortages, and restricted humanitarian access continue to hinder the response. The IRC has scaled up its efforts despite these immense challenges, supporting Sudanese communities both within the country and across national borders. The IRC itself was founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein and is one of the world's largest international humanitarian organizations, working in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities. Its mission is to help people survive, reclaim control of their future, and strengthen their communities. Working in Sudan means operating in one of the most complex humanitarian environments on earth. The security situation is volatile, access is restricted, and the needs are staggering. This role is not for someone looking for a standard desk job. It demands adaptability, resilience, and a genuine commitment to locally led, demand-driven humanitarian action. The successful candidate will build the capacity of Sudanese partner organizations and put local partners and communities at the center of the response. Responsibilities - Lead the development and implementation of the program's framework in coordination with partners and cross-sectoral advisors to drive toward program objectives - Oversee all program technical contributions, specifically context-driven and evidence-based approaches to improving inclusive access to Health, Nutrition, WASH, Food Security and Livelihoods, and Protection - Strengthen the quality of humanitarian assistance across all sectors and enable system-level actors to bolster support for and investment in education to achieve program outcomes - Lead the program team in making data-driven course-correction and programmatic improvements that enable achievement of program outcomes, applying collaborative, flexible, and practical thinking - Identify issues and risks related to program implementation in a timely manner and ensure appropriate program adjustments - Support the development of the monitoring, evaluation, and learning plan jointly with key education system actors - Ensure linkages between evidence generation, global dialogue, and country actions while supporting global leadership - Provide technical oversight of partner programming, ensuring alignment with IRC technical standards and donor requirements - Manage the budget to ensure programming targets are achieved within budget limits - Oversee and review technical writing products and deliverables - Oversee ongoing quality assurance and quality improvement for technical activities - Manage implementing partners and oversee programmatic excellence in coordination with relevant IRC Sudan and implementing partner teams - Act on behalf of the Team Lead in their absence and represent the program in all coordination forums - Coordinate the development, implementation, and reporting on detailed management plans, including implementation plans and deliverables tracking - Facilitate cross-learning between program components and resolve technical challenges arising during implementation - Ensure interventions align with HELP-S outcomes and cross-cutting principles including gender-transformative approaches, disability inclusion, conflict sensitivity, and climate adaptation Requirements & Qualifications - Advanced degree (or equivalent experience) in Health, Nutrition, or WASH, or a related field - At least 8 years of work experience in international development - At least 8 years' experience in a senior management role of large and complex donor-funded programs - Experience managing a diverse team of professionals and consortium partners - Experience with delivery at a national scale is an advantage - Extensive experience working in East Africa or North Africa, ideally in Sudan - Ability to provide leadership and direction in harnessing the multi-disciplinary skills of technical personnel and consortium partners within complex and high-risk environments - Excellent analytical, communication, and writing skills - Ability to articulate arguments and positions backed with evidence to promote causes and ideas - Strong skills in ensuring effective and efficient delivery of integrated services - Understanding of how to build the capacity and organizational strength of Sudanese partner organizations - Proven ability to put local partners and communities at the center of humanitarian action - Outstanding leadership, strategic thinking, and organizational, team-building, and presentational skills - Ability to perform at a senior management level, including managing staff in a matrixed system focused on adaptive management How to Apply 1.
