The job
Objective and scope
ACAPS is embarking on an exciting new chapter as an independent organisation, based in the Netherlands. In order to support our ability to involve a diverse set of skills and broad perspectives in our analytical work, we are expanding our existing roster of expertise. We’re looking for senior profiles, with deep humanitarian analysis or technical expertise. If that sounds like you, we’d love to have you on this journey!
Area of expertise
Training design and facilitation: design, coordinate, conduct trainings and workshops dedicated to crisis analysis and various audiences in the humanitarian sector. Note that specific experience designing and delivering training on analysis in the humanitarian sector is a requirement.
Type of work
The type of work that ACAPS requests through the roster includes, but is not limited to:
Details
Consultancies are primarily home based; however, some specific pieces of work in specific areas of expertise may require travel, as required by ACAPS.
Successful consultants will be provided a Service Agreement for 12 months, issued by ACAPS Stichting, a Netherlands based organisation. Specific work will be offered to the consultant and agreed based on Scopes of Work (SoW) which outline the specific outputs, fee rates, duration and deadlines for each piece of work. The exact specifics of SOWs offered to the roster will be based on ACAPS requirements as they evolve during the Service Agreement contract period.
Selection for the roster does not obligate the consultant to accept work offered by ACAPS. Similarly, inclusion on the roster does not guarantee that ACAPS will have work for all roster participants.
All successful consultants will be expected to adhere to ACAPS terms and conditions, including being adequately insured, and will be expected to sign and abide by ACAPS Code of Conduct.
