Area Coordinator - Mozambique H/F Action contre la Faim

Notre environnement de travail

Mozambique faces multiple shocks, including the conflict in Northern Mozambique, frequent natural hazards and disease outbreaks. Cabo Delgado Province, already one of the most vulnerable and poverty-stricken provinces of Mozambique, has been affected since late 2017 by armed conflict perpetrated by Non-state armed groups which has continued to destabilize pockets of territory, generating new waves of displacement and constantly undermining the provision of humanitarian assistance.

In Cabo Delgado, ACF has been implementing its humanitarian response with an integrated, multi-sectoral approach, addressing Health & Nutrition, Mental Health & Psychosocial Support, Food Security & Livelihoods, and WASH, amongst the Mozambican Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in camp and non-camp settings, as well as Returnees and Host Communities. In 2026, ACF is willing to continue its humanitarian interventions in the areas still presenting urgent needs but also focusing on post-emergency / recovery interventions. Our team, currently composed of 7 international staff and 116 national staff, is running operations of approximatively 6 million euros. The main donors of the mission are DG ECHO, SIDA, and the Crisis and Support Centre of the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs.

Pourquoi nous rejoindre ?

ACF Mozambique has been affected by the fund crisis in 2025. Nevertheless, the Country Office is now growing again, increasing its geographical footprint (both within Cabo Delgado Province and in the rest of the Country) as well as its number of implemented projects funded by a more diverse set of Donors. Cabo Delgado shows a complex, dynamic, yet interesting context, marked by a multi-layer crisis (conflict, climate, political). The country strategy represents well the expertise of ACF, with all programmatic sectors implemented, with both humanitarian and nexus/development approaches.
Pemba is the largest and capital city of Cabo Delgado Province.
