Make a career

Involvement in humanitarian aid does not necessarily mean working in the field. There are many other jobs at head office that are just as essential to our projects in the field.

Working at headquarters or in the field

At Première Urgence Internationale, we never send volunteers into the field. Even with a great deal of determination, it’s not enough: field positions require very specific skills, and there are numerous training courses and university curricula to meet these needs.

Field positions open to international expatriates are generally coordination, project management and management positions. They currently represent around 220 positions in our 25 countries of operation.

Our 25 field missions are staffed by national employees recruited directly in the countries where we operate. They represent some 3,000 positions worldwide.

But working in the humanitarian sector isn’t just about working in the field. To carry out our projects successfully, we need talent at head office in support functions such as Communications, Information Systems, Human Resources, Finance, Logistics and General Services. Although these positions are not necessarily in the field, they are in close contact with our employees around the world. Currently, 140 people work at Première Urgence Internationale’s headquarters just outside Paris, in Asnières-Sur-Seine.

Encouraging change and mobility

Première Urgence Internationale supports the professional development of its employees by offering numerous opportunities for internal growth and ongoing development, and by encouraging mobility between field and head office.

Training is a priority for us, as it is essential for improving the skills, efficiency and motivation of our staff. By investing in the professional development of our teams, we guarantee a better quality of intervention and greater adaptability to humanitarian challenges.

If you would like more information about training and working in the humanitarian sector, please visit the portal of our partner solidaire-info.org.
