London, United Kingdom International Rescue Committee Full time

**Requisition ID**: req41604

**Job Title**: Senior Contracts Specialist

**Sector**: Awards Management

**Employment Category**: Regular

**Employment Type**: Full-Time

**Compensation**: USD 100,000.00 - 115,000.00 Salary

**Location**: New York, NY HQ USA

**BACKGROUND**

Over the past 80 years, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has developed unparalleled expertise in responding to emergencies and helping uprooted communities to rebuild. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster.

The International Rescue Committee is a global network with its headquarters in New York. The IRC is on the ground in more than 40 countries, providing emergency relief, relocating refugees and rebuilding lives in the wake of disaster.

The IRC is committed to a culture of bold leadership, innovation in all aspects of our work, creative partnerships and, most crucially, accountability to those we serve. The IRC is a tireless advocate for the most vulnerable.

**The Awards Management Unit (AMU)**

The Awards Management Unit (AMU) is a global department with the responsibility for identifying, securing, and managing all funding from statutory/government donors/client. The department includes the following teams: Program and Award Support, Strategic Partnerships, Compliance and Policy, Business Development, and Training.

The AMU is a bridge between donors and country programs: providing expert technical advice to the country teams, while maintaining portfolio-level visibility to ensure consistency and compliance, and manage risk. This unit ensures that donor compliance policies and procedures are implemented consistently, and supports all staff working across the award management cycle.

**Purpose of the Role**

The role will be also responsible for project managing assigned contract readiness implementation task group deliverables, working across implementing units of the IRC, and when required, providing direct support to IRC country offices.

This pivotal role will contribute to ensuring that IRC is ready to deliver on our ambitious strategic goals, and significantly increase the scale, reach and effectiveness of our work, whilst reducing the organization’s risk exposure on commercial contracts.

**Scope and Authority**

In this role you provide support and advice autonomously but in line with parameters laid out by the Director, Awards Management, Global and in accordance with IRC and AMU systems and policies.

This position does not have budgetary or line management responsibilities but may have temporary responsibilities when providing surge support in projects.
