Compliance Manager (M/F) - Ndjamena
About us
Desired start date: 1st July 2026
Duration of the mission: 6 Months
Location: Ndjamena
SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL (SI) is an international humanitarian aid association which, since more than 40 years, has been providing assistance to populations affected by armed conflicts and natural disasters by meeting their basic needs for food, water and shelter. Particularly committed to the fight against diseases linked to unsafe water, the leading cause of death in the world, SI's interventions provide expertise in the field of access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene promotion, but also in the essential area of food security and livelihoods. Present in 26 countries, the SI teams – 3200 people in total, made up of expatriates, national staff, permanent staff at HQ, and a few volunteers - intervene with professionalism and commitment while respecting cultural norms.
About the mission
With the outbreak of the conflict in April 2023 and forced evacuation of Khartoum and West Darfur (El Geneina), SI was the first international NGO to re-enter Darfur and resume its emergency response. SI is since working in West Darfur, Central Darfur, North Darfur, Gedaref, Al Jazeera and Khartoum, thanks to the support of SHF, CDCS, ECHO and BHA. In February 2024, SI opened a base in North Darfur to provide emergency assistance to populations, as very few humanitarian organizations were operational in the state. Similarly, SI opened an office in Zalinegei, Central Darfur in November 2024. Today, activities are being implementing in West Darfur, Central Darfur, North Darfur, Gedaref, Al Jazeera and Khartoum States across WASH, Shelter and NFI support, Food Security and Livelihood sectors.
In the East, SI is implementing activities in Gedaref, Al Jazeera and Khartoum states, with the main base currently in Gedaref and sub-bases in Khartoum and Al Jazeera. The international staff cover all three states and SI has national staff covering multiple states. With funding from ECHO, CDCS, SHF and BHA, SI covers basic needs of WASH, Livelihood and Shelter. The interventions mainly target IDPs and returnees in the targeted states.
