Context & mission

Médecins Sans Frontières is an independent, international medical and humanitarian organization that provides care to people in need, people affected by natural or man-made disasters, and victims of armed conflict, without discrimination and without regard to race, religion, creed or political affiliation (MSF Charter).

The MSF movement is built around 5 operational centers supported by 24 sections and offices worldwide. MSF Operational Center Geneva (MSF OCG) is one of these centres.

Context:

The Single Data Entry (SDE) project is a transformational initiative led by MSF to significantly improve the quality and efficiency of supply chain data entry in stock management processes (cargo reception, order preparation, stock count) across multiple operational centres (OC). The solution being developed revolves around a mobile application leveraging QR codes and AI-powered OCR technologies to automate data capture and integrate with MSF’s existing supply chain systems. The project team is looking for an application manager to bring technical expertise and a capacity to coordinate with IT organizations across OCs to execute its test & deployment strategy and define the support model.

Mission:

The IT Project Manager is pivotal in developing and implementing the SDE solution to meet high standards and integrate smoothly with existing systems and stock management tools. Responsible for the successful delivery of IT solutions supporting the SDE program, this role ensures both business,

functional and technical requirements are efficiently met. The IT Project Manager will work closely with diverse stakeholders to develop and implement tailored solutions, ensuring these are delivered on time, within budget, and aligned with strategic objectives. In this role, you will provide technical leadership within the SDE core team, manage the product development, and collaborate with technical experts from the four cosponsoring Operational Centers (OCs) of the SDE program.

We are seeking an experienced IT Project Manager with a robust background in software development and a proven track record in leading mobile application projects. Join us at Médecins Sans Frontières and contribute your expertise!

Occasional travel to the field or the Geneva Office can be expected.
