ABOUT THE MISSION

Solidarités International intervened in Mozambique in March 2019 for a few months following the passage of Cyclone Idai, which hit the Province of Sofala and the city of Beira hard. Operations were suspended after the emergency phase and the mission closed. The evolution of the situation in Cabo Delgado province, hit by several cyclones and severely affected by the violent actions of armed groups claiming to be IS, which caused the displacement of nearly 700 000 people, led to an assessment in May 2021 and to the reopening of the mission. The assessment carried out in the most affected district highlighted needs, particularly in the WASH sector, and the lack of emergency actors. The mission is opening in a complex security and administrative environment, where access is a major issue.

Solidarités International was one of the first INGO actors to respond to the growing crisis in Cabo Delgado, leading emergency response and distributions in hard-to-reach areas.

General objective:

The finance coordinator will direct and coordinate all administrative, accounting, and financial services associated with the mission.

As coordinator, he/she is responsible for guaranteeing the financial balance of the mission and for ensuring that all Solidarités International procedures, donor procedures and all laws of the country in which Solidarités International is intervening are respected.

He/she is the point of reference for the mission, and the link between headquarters and the mission for all matters relating to management, accounting and budget monitoring.

The main challenges:

• Rapid growth of a new mission with only 1 year under structuration, with multiple donors (including several grants with UN agencies);
• Several delay in obtaining full registration impending administrative approval;
• Heavy bank credential and approval process.

Priorities for the 2/3 first months:

• Structure the financial, accounting and budgetary management at base and coordination level;
• Consolidate the Financial monthly reporting and Financial donor’s reporting;
• Provide support to a new team at coordination level and to 2 new base administrative managers;
• Oversee and facilitate the cash management of the mission.;
• Accountancy: implementation of digital archiving and internal audit, improve accounting recording quality.
