What we offer you
An interesting job with a unique organization. The organization has an immense international network and a significant impact in the humanitarian sector. The work you do is socially relevant and makes an impact, which sometimes means an impact on yourself. Therefore, we care about your well-being and provide tools to find a good balance. We are a flexible and people-oriented work environment with room for initiative and development.
