Field Coordinator (M/F) — Pemba, Cabo Delgado (Solidarités International)

The essentials: Solidarités International is looking for a Field Coordinator (M/F) for Pemba, Cabo Delgado, on a six-month mission with a desired start date of October 1, 2026. Apply on the official Solidarités International portal by that date — the vacancy may close before the deadline.

About the organization

Solidarités International (SI) is an international humanitarian aid organization with over 40 years of experience, specializing in water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) and food security and livelihoods (FSL), operating in 26 countries.

Present in Mozambique since March 2019, SI first responded to Cyclone Idai and entered Mueda in July 2021, later expanding to Nangade, Muidumbe, Palma, and Mocímboa da Praia. Mission coordination has been based in Pemba since 2022, with operations covering the northern districts as well as Metuge, Chiúre, Mecúfi, and Ancuabe.

The program integrates rapid response mechanism (RRM), water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), food security and livelihoods (FSL), and shelter. Following funding cuts in 2025 that scaled down the mission from around 140 to nearly 50 staff members, SI continued operating in 2026 with support from donors such as ECHO, SDC, CDCS, OCHA, IFSAN, and UNICEF.

This newly created position comes within this updated operational design, which includes opening a sub-base in southern Cabo Delgado.

What you will do

Delegated by country management, you will represent SI in your area of intervention, liaising with humanitarian workers, administrative, military, and political authorities, civil society, and the media.

• Manage the program team — around 15 colleagues — and coordinate with department heads on shared support functions between coordination and the Pemba base.
• Design, with support from country management, the working procedures for the reorganized base within a complex administrative and political context with multiple parallel consortia.
• Represent SI to local authorities, other NGOs, formal and informal community leaders, and the humanitarian community.
• Monitor team safety and decide on movements in coordination with the security department.
• Balance time between external representation and internal base operations.
• Ensure compliance with the organization's ethical framework and values across the entire area of intervention.

In Pemba, the security level is 2, with very limited restrictions: stable water and electricity, reliable 4G internet, no curfew, and sub-bases are less than an hour away by car or UNHAS flight. In Chiúre and new areas, there are tighter restrictions — movements depend on local conditions and guidance from the security department.

The first few months

The priorities for the first two to three months are clear: structure the new base and define decision-making responsibilities (RACI); launch a new project funded by DG INTPA; and start area-level implementation of the 2027–2029 country strategy.

Conditions & Benefits

• Gross monthly salary starting from 3,080 euros (2,800 base + 10% leave allowance paid monthly), depending on experience, and a monthly per diem of 750 USD.
• Accommodation covered by SI and travel tickets between home country and mission location.
• Break periods during mission: 7 working days every three months, with an 850 USD allowance, plus one extra day off per month worked.
• Insurance covering medical costs (medical, surgical, dental, and optical), repatriation, and a welfare system covering war risks; essential vaccines and antimalarial treatment reimbursed.
• Six-month mission, with desired start date of October 1, 2026, based in Pemba, with frequent field visits.
