CARE is an international NGO with local staff and community partners in more than 90 countries. We create local solutions to poverty and inequality and we seek dignity for everyone every day and during times of crisis. These solutions have a broad range, from clean water to access to education; from microfinance to ensuring that everyone has nutritious food; from agriculture and climate change to disaster response. CARE puts women and girls at the center of everything we do because they have proven to be the best hope for creating lasting change in the world. Our staff live where they work, which makes us effective at understanding the challenges they face. We’ve been doing this for over 70 years, since World War II. It started with the world’s first CARE Package® of food for the post-war hungry in Europe. Our work today is as important as ever, we believe that poverty and inequality are historic injustices that we can end within a generation, for good. If you share our core beliefs: poverty is an injustice; poverty is solvable; and together, we have the power to end it, join us.
Since August of 2017 the heavy influx of Myanmar Nationals in Cox’s Bazaar requires emergency response in accordance with CARE’s Humanitarian Mandate. CARE has started response and preparing to scale up to 150,000 beneficiaries. A Rapid Needs Analysis by CARE Bangladesh (BD) indicates interventions are required in almost all humanitarian emergency sectors including Shelter and Site Management. CARE is responding in the targeted locations involving implementation partners. Funding has been confirmed by some donors and several more proposals (local and foreign donors) are in pipeline.
To lead design, coordination, management, and quality implementation of the Emergency Responses in Shelter and Site Management, CARE is seeking an experienced Program Manager for its emergency operation in Cox’s Bazar.
