  What we do

   

  The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) works worldwide to provide humanitarian assistance to people affected by conflict and armed violence. We take action in response to emergencies and at the same time promote respect for international humanitarian law. We are an independent and neutral organization, and our mandate stems essentially from the Geneva Conventions of 1949. We work closely with National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and with their International Federation in order to ensure a concerted, rational and rapid humanitarian response to the needs of the victims of armed conflict or any other situation of internal violence. We direct and coordinate the international activities conducted in these situations.

  Visiting detainees, re-uniting families separated by conflict, organising emergency relief aid and talking to combatants about their responsibilities under the Geneva Conventions are all in day’s work for the ICRC. As an interpreter, you will be the vital communication link enabling ICRC delegates to carry out these tasks.

  • Written translation: translation of Hausa language (newspaper articles, correspondence, etc.) into written English

  • Able to work under pressure in a potentially dangerous environment

    
    

  • Open-minded and adaptable

  • 2 years of professional experience. Previous interpreter or translator experience is an advantage

    
    

  • Excellent command of English and Hausa

   

   

  Our operational and field constraints

  • Candidates must possess a driving licence (for manual transmission vehicles)

    
    

  • Candidates must be prepared to accept unaccompanied postings (i.e. no spouse, partner, children or dependents) for the first two missions (minimum 12 months each)  or total of 24 months
