About the Role
The DRC Humanitarian Response Roster has a Candidate Database where individuals interested in joining the roster can register when the roster is not open for recruitment.
Please note: Registering in the Candidate Database does not mean you are a member of the DRC Humanitarian Response Roster. By registering, you are expressing interest in potential deployments and roster membership, but this registration does not automatically result in membership.
DRC will use this database to search for skilled humanitarian experts if we are unable to find a suitable candidate among our current roster members for a specific position. Additionally, candidates in the database will be notified when the roster opens for recruitment of new members.
Important: It is not mandatory to register in the database to be considered for future roster membership. DRC will continue to accept applications for roster membership, through our usual recruitment campaigns.
Requirements for registration in the database:
Candidates registering in the database must meet the same criteria as those applying for roster membership, which include:
Minimum of 3 years of humanitarian experience within their specific technical field
2-3 years of international humanitarian field experience
Proficiency in one (preferably two) official UN language. English is mandatory, while French is considered a strong advantage
Knowledge and understanding of the complexities involved in refugee and IDP responses
Relevant educational background and preferably United Nations experience
