Description
Context
Driven by MSF’s goals, the OCB Supply Chain’s mission is to enable humanitarian action and provide reliable supply chain solutions. It comprises several sites, in each mission on the field (projects and capital), with MSF Supply, its European Supply Center, and the Kenya Supply Unit, its regional hub. The Supply Chain Department defines the global strategy of this supply chain, pilots its performance, and ensures that each site has the relevant support for its development.
The Supply Chain Officer (SCO) position belongs to the Supply Department (line manager: Front Office Coordinator) and is a member of the operational cell (functional manager: Operations Coordinator). He/She designs the supply strategies and set-ups to answer the operational needs, taking into consideration the general supply policies and standards. He/She makes sure resources and means tally with them (technical support, budget, field HR skills…). He/She supervises and reports the performance of the supply chains. He/she is accountable over the current situation of her/his contexts and must proactively foresee the future challenges; in order to avoid supply becomes a bottleneck for operations. He/she understands the needs of operations and translates them into supply chain solutions.
As a principle, a SCO position in OCB is not essentially tied to any specific context and countries, as a re-shuffling of the portfolio within the operations department can occur.
Presently, the following countries are in the portfolio of Cell4: Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Ukraine and Russia.
To be noted that Afghanistan mission is an intersectional mission that requires permanent collaboration and open dialogue with the counterparts of both OCA and OCP.
