Logistics Specialist, P3/P4 (NORCAP Emergency Response Roster Fill Up)

NORCAP works to improve aid to better protect and empower people affected by crisis and climate change. We do this by providing expertise and solutions to humanitarian, development and peacebuilding partners, because we believe working together is the best way to reduce needs, risks and vulnerability over time. We seek and promote more effective ways of working at the global level and in the field. NORCAP’s aim is not only to reduce needs, but also to create choice and opportunity for vulnerable people. NORCAP works with and through our partners to improve aid in two complementary ways:

• We provide targeted expertise to strengthen our partners’ response.
• We collaborate with partners to develop solutions to un‑met gaps and challenges.

In line with our strategy, NORCAP is developing an Emergency Response Roster consisting of highly experienced, field-oriented specialists who can deploy rapidly to complex emergencies and provide operational surge support, normally for 3–6 months.

The roster is designed to provide timely humanitarian surge support to UN agencies responding to sudden onset crises and humanitarian emergencies. Specialists in the roster will provide complementary, sequenced, support at country and field level in crises, based on identified operational needs.

Key characteristics of the specialists in the Emergency Response Roster:

• Ready to deploy within ≤14 days
• General good health and able to operate in complex and high-risk environments
• Have extensive experience from UN or inter-agency operations
• Contribute to operational impact at country and field level
• Be flexible and agile

The Logistics specialist will be expected to be sent out on assignment rapidly, to onset crisis and humanitarian emergencies. They are expected to provide complementary, sequenced support at country or field level crisis.
