Contract

NRC has been working in Yemen since May 2012. NRC’s programme combines integrated programming and issues-based advocacy. The full programme currently covers 10 of the 22 governorates in Yemen, through three area offices: Aden, Hodeidah and Sana’a. There are few humanitarian agencies responding in the education sector, consequently, and gaps remain high. NRC Yemen is therefore rapidly expanding its education programme in response to the extremely high education needs.

NRC is looking for an experienced Education Specialist to provide quality technical support in the design, development and coordination of NRC’s education programme in Yemen, through all stages of the programme cycle; to provide technical support to implementation teams to ensure programme quality and assurance; and to raise the profile of Education in Emergencies in Yemen.
