Description: 

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) / أطباء بلا حدود is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organization that delivers emergency aid to people in 70 countries who are affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare. MSF offers assistance to people based on need, irrespective of race, religion, gender or political affiliation and our actions are guided by medical ethics and the principles of neutrality and impartiality.

We offer basic healthcare, perform surgery, fight epidemics, rehabilitate and run hospitals and clinics, carry out vaccination campaigns, operate nutrition centres, and provide mental healthcare. Our activities include the treatment of injuries and disease, maternal care and the provision of humanitarian aid. Where necessary, we set up sanitation systems, supply safe drinking water, and distribute relief to assist survival.

Working overseas with (MSF) means that you will go to work in projects in any of the countries where MSF works (not in Lebanon). Each project you go to will require a certain period of commitment (6 to 12 months). It also means that you will need the flexibility to adjust to living quarters, pace of life, and languages. Projects may be located in the most remote places in the world, often in harsh environments with limited resources and amenities.

As construction specialist, you define, manage and supervise the construction &/or rehabilitation work in order to support the medical activities.

You can also be asked to negotiate agreements and required permissions, you have regular contacts with the relevant authorities and you ensure a correct design, implementation and hand-over of the work.

Other construction professionals such as carpenters, masons, plumbers and welders may be required to cover the field needs considering the lack of this expertise in certain contexts during certain period of time mainly related with emergencies.

  • 2 years of relevant professional experience in construction work and projects
  • Experience in building site management and dealing with contractors is a strong asset

  • Commitment to the values of MSF
  • Willingness to leave on mission without your partner and/or family and to work in an unstable environment
  • Good French and/or English language skills

 

What we offer:

 

  • A fixed-term contract
  • Monthly pay salary during the mission
  • A daily allowance (per diem) during the mission
