UK-Med is a humanitarian INGO that has been responding to disasters and health emergencies for more than 20 years. We train medical teams, both in the UK and worldwide, so they are ready to respond when epidemics, conflict and natural disasters hit. When Ebola struck West Africa in 2014 we recruited and trained UK doctors and nurses who helped local medical teams and other NGOs to bring the outbreak under control. We are core partners, providing the clinical component of the UK Emergency Medical Team (UK EMT) in line with WHO standards.

Our responses are staffed from our Register of surge responders. Register members undergo extensive training and vetting in advance, so they can be quickly deployed to where they are most needed. Register members who join a response team are offered a fixed-term contract for the response and paid in line with our globally benchmarked pay scales.

We are seeking several new people to join our teams in Ukraine, to be available to deploy in Logistics Coordinator (LogCo) roles. You will be able to make yourself available to work in Ukraine immediately for 6 weeks (longer availability may be an advantage), supporting the health needs of internally displaced persons.

Our ideal candidates will be experienced humanitarian logisticians who understand what it takes to set up a humanitarian medical response in a new context. UK-Med surges health teams and temporary health facilities into humanitarian contexts anywhere in the world. Our LogCos need to be able to set up and run a comprehensive in country logs system in contexts where we do not have an existing country offices.

You will be capable of managing a generalist set of logistics activities, including transport, procurement, supply chain, security, site management etc. You will be a skilled manager and supervisor, able to get the best out of staff, contractors and partners. You will be used to working in and managing security in insecure environments. You will be able to work well with other stakeholders, and will be willing to deploy either as a stand-alone logistician supporting a small team, or as the leader of a larger logistics team.

You will be determined, high performing, compassionate and collaborative, as well as being committed to learning and supporting others to learn. Language skills will be an advantage.

We offer excellent learning opportunities and occasional opportunities to work in international humanitarian responses, should you decide to join our Register at a later date.

To apply, please complete the questions and submit your CV through our Online Jobs Portal as soon as possible.

This vacancy will close as soon as we have received enough strong applications. This is an ongoing recruitment campaign to support our current mission in Ukraine.
