Omschrijving
As a Financial Project Administrator within the Finance team International Aid you get the combination of a dynamic working environment full of professionalization and improvement, with very diverse tasks and work that really matters.
The importance is great: in 12 countries we carry out large programs with impact. Together with the local Red Cross/Red Crescent society, we deploy our people in the field to help. For emergency aid (after an earthquake or war), for research (digital mapping, climate) and for prevention (information and local self-reliance).
The financial side of all these projects is important: major donors expect us to handle money carefully. How do we balance emergency aid on the one hand with solid financial accountability on the other? Which costs are eligible and can be justified? How much money is left and where can we spend it on? How do we ensure that the costs are entered correctly in the books? How do we report, internally and externally?
