Organizational Context

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 192-member National Societies. The overall aim of the IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by National Societies with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.” The IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.

IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member National Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of the IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality.
IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into three main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services.

IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster delegation and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.

On 18 October 2023, the IFRC launched the Middle East Crisis Emergency Appeal to support the coordination and scale-up of its response and readiness activities in the neighbouring countries around the centre of hostilities in Gaza. All activities were designed to ensure support and complementarity with the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) Operation and Appeal.

In light of the continued escalation of hostilities and worsening humanitarian crisis, the Federation-wide Emergency Appeal has been increased to a total funding ask of CHF 100 million, up from CHF 30 million, primarily focused on the scale-up of IFRC support to the Egyptian Red Crescent Society (ERCS) logistics operation in Egypt, given the key role it plays in ensuring the delivery of humanitarian assistance to the affected populations in Gaza. Notably, the importance of this pipeline is not limited to the current emergency phase. It is highly likely to play a critical role in the future recovery and rehabilitation programming in Gaza, subject to the evolution of the situation and in coordination with PRCS.

ERCS has set up and is looking to expand its logistics hubs in strategic locations in Egypt to offer logistical and administrative support to humanitarian actors working through their system. In the very first days of the response, ERCS set up a logistics hub in Al-Arish, the main city within close proximity to Rafah and Karam Abu Salem/Karem Shalom crossings, as well as a number of warehouses in Ismailia and around Cairo. The revision of the appeal will allow for the setup of a second logistics hub in a strategic and more accessible location that will operate based on standardized warehousing processes. It will also support ERCS’s supply chain management by focusing on improving the tracking and reporting of goods. The revision also aims to support the PRCS hospital in Cairo to deal with longer-term treatment and medical rehabilitation as needed for the injured and sick from the Gaza Strip in close coordination with ERCS.

Job Purpose

The revised Emergency Appeal will continue to support response interventions alongside preparedness and readiness actions of ERCS, Lebanese Red Cross (LRC), Jordan National Red Crescent Society (JNRCS), and Syrian Arab Red Crescent (SARC) to address the immediate and anticipated needs on the ground of an estimated 500,000 people.
To ensure the relevant technical support and effective coordination of this operation, this appeal will also contribute to boosting the IFRC Secretariat’s capacity at both the country and regional levels to support the timely scale-up of operations based on evolving humanitarian needs.

The main purpose of the Warehouse Delegate is to support the management of all Egyptian Red Crescent Society (ERCS) warehouses in-line with GHS&SCM strategies/ procedures and Warehouse Manual as well as other guidance, standards, and processes to ensure a high-quality service provision that meets the needs of the ERCS and service users with objectives of safety, environment, and warehouse management.
