What we are looking for

NRC is looking for a Logistics Manager to join the Bangladesh mission. The role holder will be responsible for the set-up of the Logistics and Information & Communications Technology in accordance with NRC’s standards and best practice; ensuring compliance with NRC’s procedures, national authority requirements, and donor rules; and developing the structure of the Logistics Department; to support programme/project implementation.

If you are an action-oriented, execution-driven, and hands-on executive, with an ability to deliver results under pressure, who demonstrates persistence and resilience, then this is the role for you!

What you will do

  • Logistics and Information & Communications Technology management (including fleet, warehousing, asset & stock management, procurement, and office & accommodation management).
  • Logistics and ICT department structuring and management.
  • Logistics systems and procedures implementation and monitoring.
  • Compliance assurance (with NRC’s policies, national authority requirements, and donor rules).
  • Controls and risk management measures and mitigations.
  • Procurement leases, licences, and contracts maintenance with authorities and suppliers.
  • Logistics tools design and review.
  • Key performance indicators design and monitoring.
  • Programme/project design and budget development contribution.
  • Digital maturity action plan implementation.
  • Capacity building of staff on logistics measures.

What you will bring

  • Logistics senior management experience in a humanitarian/recovery context.
  • Risk and compliance expertise.
  • Identification of risks and controls proficiency.
  • Scale-up and restructuring exposure.
  • Bangladesh context and the Bangladesh humanitarian response experience and knowledge.
  • Opaque, complex, and volatile context exposure.
  • English fluency, both written and verbal.

What makes this position attractive?

  • The opportunity to work in the steadily growing NRC mission of Bangladesh that has scaled up since inception in 2018 to respond to the Rohingya influx, and that has an increasingly growing portfolio and funding. NRC interventions are used to increase the acceptance of humanitarian assistance amongst Rohingya and Bangladeshi populations.
  • In addition to the existing Rohingya refugee response, NRC’s integrated activities are addressing the impacts of displacement from climate change in Cox’s Bazar, in the North-East and South-West parts of Bangladesh. As of 2022, NRC is working to respond to severe floods in Sylhet. Bangladesh is one of the world’s most disaster-prone countries while also hosting nearly 1 million Rohingya refugees. This is considered a protracted emergency in which displacement and recurrent climate disasters combine.
  • Meaningful work that responds to the diverse needs, priorities, and concerns raised by beneficiary communities. The current context is set against a backdrop of continued conflict in Rakhine State, steady attenuation of humanitarian access, and political pressure to repatriate refugees. This is characterised by multiple localised emergencies adversely affecting communities and populations with low levels of resilience, high vulnerability, and acute poverty.
  • Female candidates are strongly encouraged to join our work culture that empowers every employee to share ideas and take responsibility.

What we offer

  • Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh duty station.
  • 24-month contract duration.
  • 20% travel, approximately.
  • Grade 9 in NRC’s Salary Scale, with accompanying terms and conditions. NRC offers a competitive compensation and benefits package.
  • NRC is an equal opportunities employer and aims to have staffing diversity in terms of age, gender, ethnicity, nationality, and physical ability.
