Job Description
Closing date: 10 Nov 2026 ABOUT US Desired start date: 1 February 2027 Duration of the mission: 12 months Location: Jerusalem SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI's interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, the SI teams – 3200 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers - intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms. ABOUT THE MISSION Solidarités International operates across the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, with operational teams in Deir el-Balah and Ramallah and mission coordination in Jerusalem (although some national coordination staff work out of Ramallah). The position works at coordination level and covers both Gaza and West Bank operations, ensuring consistent administrative, HR and financial support across the mission. SI delivers emergency and early-recovery WASH assistance, shelter and essential-item distributions, and is scaling up nutrition-sensitive FSL activities, including a EUR 1.3 million FIFSAN project with a Palestinian partner. The portfolio relies on close cooperation with local organizations and must continually adapt to volatile access, damaged infrastructure, fragile markets and supply constraints. The Palestinian context is a particularly volatile one, especially in recent months in the West Bank, and in Gaza there are for the moments no signs of a resolution to the political and humanitarian crisis engulfing the exclave and its 2 million residents. ABOUT THE JOB General objective: The Logistic Coordinator steers a mission’s logistical activities in order to ensure that Solidarités International in-country programs run smoothly. He/she implements Solidarités International mission procedures and logistical tools, and ensures that they are properly used and adhered to. He/she participates in defining Solidarités International’s mission strategy, in drawing up projects and in assessing the resources needed for Solidarités International activities. He/she supports the Head of Mission in operational security management. He/she is the point of reference for the mission and serves as the link between headquarters and the mission for all matters relating to logistics. The main challenges: 1) Shift the department from reactive emergency support to proactive, structured logistics without losing surge capacity. 2) Manage simultaneous Gaza, West Bank and Jerusalem timelines, including the heavy 2720 workload, access constraints, fragile markets an
