ABOUT WFP
The United Nations World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

ASSIGNMENT BACKGROUND
In April 2023, a conflict erupted in Sudan, resulting in significant loss of life, widespread destruction, and large-scale displacement of civilians. The conflict's impact continues to unfold, presenting a multifaceted challenge and a distinctive operational environment for humanitarian organizations, including WFP. Recent assessments indicate that over 17 million people in Sudan are currently grappling with acute food insecurity, particularly as the harvest season draws to a close.

As Sudan approaches the lean season in May 2024, the number of individuals facing severe food shortages is expected to escalate, with several regions at risk of deteriorating food security conditions. Notably, there is a heightened concern that households currently classified under IPC Phase 4 may transition to Phase 5 without urgent humanitarian intervention.

While WFP has been actively responding to the urgent humanitarian needs by providing emergency food, nutrition, and cash assistance to millions of affected individuals, the situation on the ground continues to demand sustained and comprehensive humanitarian efforts. To address these challenges, WFP Sudan is developing an Emergency Response Safety Net project aimed at delivering life-saving food and cash assistance to the most vulnerable populations across the country.

In this regard, WFP Sudan seeks a qualified candidate to serve as Project Coordinator.

KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES
Lead and facilitate comprehensive design, development, and implementation of the Emergency Response Safety Net project, ensuring effective coordination across key functional areas within the Country Office (Programme, Logistics, Procurement, Budget & Programme, TEC, relevant Hubs, etc).

Ensure the timely collection, analysis, and submission of high-quality project reports, adhering to established standards and protocols.
Manage project funds and finances effectively, tracking expenditures in accordance with WFP and donor regulations to ensure transparent and accountable use of resources.
Coordinate the organization and delivery of essential training sessions for WFP partners, both local and international, ensuring compliance with WFP procedures and guidelines.
Foster strong technical collaboration with relevant stakeholders, maintaining regular communication and engagement to facilitate knowledge sharing and alignment of objectives.
Conduct regular site visits to project locations to assess progress and monitor implementation activities firsthand.
