La Bessone, near Geneva, Switzerland.
Course dates:
27 September – 4 October 2024
ROC Application deadline:
27 August 2024
Contract length
If a field contract is signed after the ROC, it normally ranges from (a minimum of) 12 months to 2 years.
Please note that attending the ROC does not guarantee a job placement after the ROC.
Field Workplace
Medair is currently working in Afghanistan, D.R. Congo, Jordan, Lebanon, Madagascar, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Ukraine, and Yemen.
Field contracts given will be based in one of these countries or any new programmes that Medair starts up.
If you have professional experience that matches one or more of the Medair sectors but you cannot see any current jobs that fit your profile, apply directly for the Medair ROC, our “Relief and Recovery Orientation Course”.
We will try and match your profile to our upcoming field vacancy needs and if there is a good match, we will consider you for this or a future ROC.
Everyone who works as an Internationally Recruited Staff in one of our field programmes must first successfully complete the ROC.
Candidates accepted onto the Medair ROC/vROC will be considered for International Staff field roles.
The ROC is an intensive experiential orientation to relief work with Medair. This 7 day course is held three/four times a year. Participants experience the challenges of relief work through practical simulations and become familiar with Medair’s values, projects, and country programmes. Each participant will be interviewed by a senior member of the Medair Human Resources team to evaluate the week and discuss their possible future with Medair in a field programme. The course is normally held in Switzerland (covid permitting).
Our Culture
The ROC simulation includes practical exercises, research, and daily updates of changing field conditions and security bulletins.
What is the ROC and why is it required?
Standard ranges of experience and competencies required for Medair field positions:
All new deploying international staff to Medair’s country programmes (and other roles which require field travel) should be fully vaccinated with a WHO-approved COVID vaccine, supported with a COVID vaccination certificate as evidence.
