About us Desired start date: 01/10/2026 Duration of the mission: 6 months Location: Pemba SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI's interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, the SI teams – 3200 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers - intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms. About the mission Solidarités International (SI) has been providing life-saving assistance in northern Mozambique since March 2019, initially responding to Cyclone Idai. As the crisis in Cabo Delgado escalated, SI began operations in Mueda in July 2021 and progressively expanded to other northern districts including Nangade, Muidumbe, Palma and, more recently, Mocímboa da Praia. By 2022, SI had established a coordination office in Pemba and operational bases in Mueda and Palma. Following the closure of the Palma base, SI opened a new base in Mocímboa da Praia in July 2023 to support urgent returnee needs. Today, SI operates from Pemba, Mueda and Mocímboa da Praia, covering not only the northern districts (Mueda, Mocímboa da Praia, Nangade, Muidumbe and Palma) but also additional districts further south, such as Metuge, Chiúre, Mecúfi and Ancuabe. In 2024–2025, SI Mozambique has prioritized integrated, multisectoral programming focused on the Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM), WASH, Food Security and Livelihoods (FSL), and Shelter/NFI. At the beginning of 2025, however, major BHA funding cuts forced a significant restructuring, reducing the mission from approximately 140 to around 50 staff and prompting a reorganization of operations to maintain essential activities. This restructuring coincided with a deterioration of the security situation in Cabo Delgado, with renewed attacks, increased displacement, and unpredictable access since mid-2024, requiring continuous adaptation of SI’s strategies. In 2026, despite these challenges, SI continues to deliver principled, needs-based assistance across Cabo Delgado with the support of key donors such as ECHO, SDC, CDCS, OCHA, IFSAN and UNICEF while exploring emergency and nexus funding opportunities with other donors such as DG INTPA, adapting its WASH strategy and stenghtening its FSL expertise, In Pemba, Solidarités offices host both the Coordination and Pemba base per se. Several support and MEAL positions are mutualise with a joint oversight from the Field Coordinator and the heads of departments. The Field Coordinator would line manage the programs team (+- 15 colleagues) and will coordinate with the head of departments to supersise the support functions in coordination/Pemba base. SI is opening a sub-base in the south of Cabo Delgado and is exploring the feasibility of interventions in new areas.

They are responsible for ensuring the security of SI teams and assets in their area, as well as compliance with the organisation's ethical framework and values.

With the new set-up, one field coordinators will represent SI in northern Cabo Delgado and one in Pemba and in the South. With the support of the country director and of the other head of departments, the field coordinator will have to design smooth ways of working for this "new" base. • The administrative and political enviroment is complex and SI operates through multiple consortium, Those two factors might appear time-consuming, with a balance to find between external coordination and representation and "internal" operations. PRIORITIES FOR THE 2/3 FIRST MONTHS: • Structure the new base and elaborate the RACI • Launch a new project funded by DG INTPA • Implementation at area level of the 2027-2029 country strategy SECURITY CONSTRAINTS: Security level 2 in Pemba / very limited security constraints In Chiure and new areas of intervention : more restrictions; movement and activities depend on local conditions and Security Department guidance Your profile DIPLOMA AND EXPERIENCE: Diploma : Bachelor diploma in relevant fields Experience in the humanitarian sector : 3-4 years Experience on a similar position : 3-4 years LANGUAGE: • English mandatory • Portuguese highly desirable • Spanish is a plus if no portuguese SI will offer you A salaried position: According to experience, starting from EUR 3080 gross per month (2800 base salary + 10% annual leave allowance paid monthly) and a monthly Per Diem of USD 750.
