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 in Brussels, 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.

Currently, biomedical equipment is most often purchased through MSF Supply and sent to the field, under warranty and/or with a maintenance agreement. When the machines on the field need repairing a green light is provided by Logistic BioMed referents, and until now Logistics Department manages the return flow to the supplier. However, the aim is that the OCB Supply Chain now takes care of this return flow. To this aim the Supply Chain Department is hiring for 6 months a Biomedical After Sales Officer.

The Biomedical After Sales Officer ensures continuity of the use of medical equipment in the field by temporarily managing the return flow of equipment, and managing a project aiming at setting up a sustainable solution (e.g. process, procedures, tools, risk analyses) between sites, Headquarters, MSF Supply, and suppliers,. S/he will also contribute to the wider discussions on improvement of the management of BioMedical equipment management and life cycle.

The Biomedical After Sales Service Officer is part of the Supply Chain Department. S/he will be part of the BioMed platform together with the BioMed referent of the Medical department, the BioMed referent of the Logistics Department, and the Biomed technician in MSFSupply to ensure the coherence between the 3 entities in charge each one of different interlinked aspects.

CONTEXT

In 2012, the MSF-OCB Analysis and Advocacy Unit (AAU) split into two teams under separate coordination. The Humanitarian Innovation Team (HIT) developed to focus on conflict and displacement settings, through the use of polyvalent specialist profiles that were able to provide strategic support to operations, engage in reflection and writing and conduct advocacy and analysis. The Health Access Team (HAT) continued to develop in-depth specialized research on a range of topics including health financing and HIV/AIDS. 

In 2017, a decision was taken to build on the successes of both the HIT and the HAT and to merge the teams into a stand-alone department within OCB. 

The Analysis Department plays an important role within OCB in terms of analyzing our political environment, defining advocacy strategies, shaping public messages and supporting or challenging operations on topics ranging from new project locations to negotiated access. 

The mission of the analysis department is to have a multi-disciplinary team that contributes to the MSF social mission by (1) conducting in depth humanitarian and health policy related research/reflection; (2) developing and implementing advocacy strategies; (3) expanding our operational networks in support of our humanitarian access; (4) supporting and challenging operations; and (5) positioning the organization on the politics of health and humanitarianism based on MSF’s operational experiences.

 Within this new department there are 4 teams:

• The health politics team
• The forced migration team
• The conflict and humanitarianism team
• The humanitarian access and networking team

This advertised position forms part of the Humanitarian Access and Networking Team. This team focuses on supporting operations in increasing its context analysis and networking capacity.. The team works together with operations to build a networking strategy that is in direct support to the Heads of Mission and Field Coordinators. This will be done primarily through the provision of support and coaching of the national staff assistant Head of Mission (HoM) and assistant Field Coordinator positions. These positions will be redefined to better clarify their role in developing networks alongside the Head of Mission and Field Coordinator. This regional position will act as a technical referent for these field positions. 

3 positions are currently opened:

• One in the Middle East Region (Middle East Humanitarian Access Advisor)
• One in the Great Lakes region (Great Lakes Humanitarian Access Advisor)
• One in the Sahel region (Sahel Humanitarian Access Advisor)

OBJECTIVE OF THE POSITION

The purpose of the Regional Humanitarian Access Advisor is to increase our networking and negotiation capacity at field level, and to provide direct support to operations at field and HQ levels.

The Regional Humanitarian Access Advisor will be responsible for developing an in depth regional context analysis and will support Heads of Mission in the region in developing their operational networks. This will involve coaching and supporting field based national staff who form part of the operational decision making line.

Frequent travels to the field will be necessary as well as flexibility to respond to sudden demands of support outside of assigned portfolio.
