UNHCR was created in 1950, during the aftermath of the Second World War, to help millions of Europeans who had fled or lost their homes. We had three years to complete our work and then disband. Today, over 65 years later, our organization is still hard at work, protecting and assisting refugees around the world.
Category/grade LICA 8
Post Number N/A Type of contract UNOPS/4 Months
Effective date of assignment
1 September 2020 Closing Date 11 June 2020
Operational Context:
Private Sector Partnership Service (PSP) sits in UNHCR's Division of External Relations and is responsible for raising resources for the organization from two sources; Individual Giving (general public) and Leadership Giving (Corporations, Foundations, and Private Philanthropists). PSP Africa has made great strides in digital and mobile fundraising, especially with the launch of the
LuQuLuQu Campaign. This has helped with advocacy in changing the narrative and perception of the African refugees and thereby building a platform for public engagement while giving leads, and acquisition of One-Off (OO) donors. In light of this, a Face-to- Face (F2F) fundraising test has been rolled out in Accra, Ghana, and South Africa in December 2018 and February 2019 respectively.
In this regard, an experienced Assistant Fundraising Officer (F2F) LICA-8 is required to help develop the program across the identified cities in Nigeria (Lagos and Abuja, Ibadan City, Kano City, Port Harcourt and Benin City) to maximize output, by way of providing strategic input, advice on investments, technical expertise, coaching and ongoing fundraising support in the Nigerian
Market. The Assistant Fundraising Officer will report to the PSP Officer (F2F), Africa.
