The Logistics Coordinator will report to the Humanitarian Response Team Leader for the management and delivery of all logistics related activities during a humanitarian response deployment.
Medical Teams International maintains a humanitarian response roster in order to facilitate the rapid response of humanitarian professionals and volunteers to emergencies around the world. Medical Teams International’s humanitarian response activities are designed to provide rapid and coordinated humanitarian response to the most vulnerable populations during and after a humanitarian emergency. Collaborating with local government agencies and other humanitarian actors, we evaluate the emergency’s impact and coordinate with our humanitarian response roster of trained and experienced humanitarian response personnel to respond within 48 hours. Through partnerships with local health organizations, we provide emergency medical care, transitional health, and community programming for impacted communities, from humanitarian response to development, saving lives and improving quality of care. MTI’s humanitarian response interventions include health, nutrition, and WASH.
Experience:
Two years’ experience in emergency logistics (procurement, tendering, contracting, clearance, transport, warehousing, asset management).
Demonstrated understanding of donor specific logistics procedures and grant requirements.
Relevant academic study, such as completion of the Certification in Humanitarian Logistics.
Experience supporting management of budgets and the ability to provide input to timely, complete and accurate reports.
Proven ability to work in insecure or hardship environments.
Experience managing, mentoring, and developing capacity of national personnel.
Demonstrated ability to work well as a part of a multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary team.

Mission Statement
To demonstrate the love of Christ to people affected by poverty, conflict and disaster.
Description
In our broken world, so many people are suffering. They are pushed to the margins and forgotten. Men, women, and children are persecuted and left without homes. They are hurting, sick, and in crisis.
God calls us to love the vulnerable, to dare to love like Jesus. He uses us to provide those in crisis with protection and care.
We work to restore health as the first step to restoring hope. Because every person deserves the chance for a better life. Because every person - no matter where they are or how desperate their situation - matters.
