International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies - IFRC
Organizational Context

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 191-member National Societies (NSs). The overall aim of IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by NSs with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.” IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.

IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member National Societies and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality.

IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into three main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services.

IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster delegations and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.

IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.

The British Red Cross (BRC) has been working in Ukraine since February 2022 following the escalation in conflict and established a country office in Kyiv in October 2022. The BRC Ukraine team works through and in close cooperation with the Red Cross Red Crescent Movement partners, including Ukrainian Red Cross Society (URCS), the IFRC and ICRC, and other partner National Societies.

Job Purpose

The Programme Coordinator is a key internal role within the British Red Cross (BRC) Ukraine country team, responsible for supporting the effective delivery of BRC-funded programmes in Ukraine, including those funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) and other bilateral donors. As BRC is not a direct implementation actor, this role is focused on enabling and supporting the Ukrainian Red Cross Society (URCS) in the day-to-day management and implementation of these programmes.

Working in close collaboration with URCS and Red Cross Movement partners, the Programme Coordinator provides strategic and operational support across programme design, implementation, monitoring, and reporting. The role ensures that BRC’s internal systems, donor compliance requirements, and quality standards are upheld, while also contributing to the capacity strengthening of URCS in programme and grant management.

This position does not involve direct implementation responsibilities but plays a critical enabling role in ensuring that URCS-led programmes are well-supported, well-documented, and aligned with both donor expectations and the URCS’s strategic vision.

In times of heightened humanitarian need, the role holder may be required to adapt to evolving priorities, work outside the standard role profile, and be available for flexible working hours.
