Summary
Solidarity Center seeks an experienced international development professional to fill a newly created position to support staff in headquarters and the field on a variety of Operations and HR issues. Particular emphasis will be placed on the development and standardization of field office systems and procedures. Procurement, compliance, and security comprise a portion of the work; other aspects of the role touch on human resources and finance in regard to local labor law, visas, and tax obligations outside the United States. A major area of responsibility will be developing and/or improving systems and tools that field offices need to be efficient and compliant, then adapting them to a wide range of local contexts, in close coordination with administrative and program staff. This will require research and outreach both within and outside of the organization to gather best practices and innovative tools for a variety of needs on the ground. These will include onboarding of field staff and may include: coordinating with hiring managers, HR, and other staff to ensure that Solidarity Center’s orientation is responsive to the needs of field-based staff, ensuring smooth staff relocation and settlement; maintaining registration, permits, and security requirements; managing inventory and usage of equipment and vehicles; and tracking expenses and staff time.
This position will initially focus on establishing standardized, efficient, but adaptable processes for field office operations, with systems for ongoing review and update of those processes. To ensure their sustainability, the Operations and HR Officer will train and collaborate closely with staff in the field who can serve as Operations Focal Points or liaisons for their country or region. Acting as a primary point of contact for staff being deployed to new locations, the Operations and HR Officer also plays a crucial role in the onboarding and orientation processes, starting at the point of hire.
As a critical link between field offices and headquarters, this position requires innovative thinking and problem-solving as well as strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to remain calm in highly charged situations. The Operations and HR Officer should have a keen eye for detail and the ability to grasp minutiae regarding compliance with Solidarity Center policy, applicable law, and grant regulations.
Basic Qualifications:
International travel will be required for regular visits to field offices.
Supervisor: Director of Operations
Specific Duties:
In compliance with federal law, all persons hired will be required to verify identity and eligibility to work in the United States and to complete the required employment eligibility verification document form upon hire.
This is a collective bargaining unit position, generously compensated with a gross annual salary starting at approximately $92,876 USD based on experience. A robust benefits package includes fully paid health insurance, a retirement plan and pension, life insurance, and ample paid time off for holidays, vacation, and medical leave.
