Vacancy for Start Fund Officer
October 20, 2015
The Start Network is seeking a Start Fund Officer to ensure our grant processes and information management systems are being run as efficiently as possible, so that aid reaches crisis-affected populations as quickly as possible.
The Start Fund is designed to reach small to medium sized ‘under the radar’ crises and provides assistance within 72 hours. The Fund enables international and local facilities to be be better able to step up and help when they are most needed.
Currently hosted by Save the Children, the Start Fund Officer will act as the first port of call for field teams across the globe, process crisis alerts, answer queries and maintain data and information. Their workload will vary according to the crisis alerts, so they’ll need to be a flexible team-player. Applications for the role close on 1 November 2015.
