About MAG:

MAG saves lives and builds futures by working with others to reclaim land contaminated with the debris of conflict, to reduce the daily risk of death or injury for civilians, and to create safe and secure conditions for development. MAG shared the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize as a founding member of the International Campaign to Ban Landmines for our work to ban landmines. Our vision is a safe and secure future for men, women and children affected by armed violence and conflict.

About the South Sudan programme:

South Sudan is one of the youngest, poorest and least developed countries world-wide.
The 2013 outbreak of hostilities has led to thousands of people being killed or wounded, and hundreds of thousands of people being displaced by the violence.
MAG has been working in South Sudan since 2004, to clear landmines/unexploded ordnance and deliver mine risk education to at-risk populations.

About the role:

The International Site Supervisors will actively manage and lead our teams of national staff to safely implement our life saving demining and EOD work. Roles can often be remote, working in challenging contexts away from home comforts, but the life-saving impact the work has on local communities is very real, and rewarding. This is a fantastic opportunity to be involved in M

AG’s life-saving work on a day-to-day basis.

About you:

You must be qualified and experienced in leading teams involved in demining / EOD operations, with previous experience working for a similar organisation, either in the humanitarian or commercial sector.

You will have experience in delivering training, and be able to mentor and capacity build national staff.

Previous experience of working in South Sudan would be beneficial.
