Delegate, Finance and Administration -US Macro Award

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian network, with 191-member National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. IFRC uses the Triple R – response, resilience and respect – to deliver on Strategy 2030. IFRC responds to disasters and crises, ensuring timely, coordinated and locally led humanitarian action. IFRC supports its members in building community resilience in the areas of climate and environment, health and wellbeing, and migration and displacement.

IFRC promotes respect for our fundamental principles of humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality, including in our work on values, power and inclusion. The IFRC focuses throughout on our core mandate – our raison d’être – of strategic and operational coordination, humanitarian diplomacy, National Society development, and accountability.

IFRC is led by its Secretary General and has its Headquarters in Geneva and five regional offices in Africa (Nairobi); the Americas (Panama);
Asia Pacific (Kuala Lumpur);
Europe (Budapest); and MENA (Beirut) as well as representation offices, service centres and delegations across the globe.

IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.

The US Macro Award is a strategic project to strengthen the Pacific Red Cross Network by building lasting humanitarian capabilities, stronger National Societies, and a more connected, Pacific-led response system that can operate independently and effectively during future crises. It focuses on six transformational priorities, including humanitarian infrastructure, logistics, digital connectivity, WASH modernization, deployable skills, and cash preparedness, with the aim of creating sustainable systems and reducing long-term reliance on external support.

Beyond delivering activities within a 12-month funding period, the Award seeks to leave a lasting legacy of faster disaster response, greater regional cooperation, and a more resilient Pacific humanitarian architecture for decades to come.
