Today, we have interests in exploration and production ventures in more than 39 countries and employ approximately 19,000 staff (not including contractors).This is a technically challenging work environment characterised by a continuing need for research, the pursuit of new technology, and the adoption of new ways of working. It demands people who will thrive in a culture that encourages and rewards innovation, collaboration and the ability to learn from success as well as failure. Shell Egypt holds various exploration and development concessions. Due to the large variation in their maturity, in some concessions the focus is on squeezing the last barrels through optimised reservoir management while in others, the focus is on concept selection for field development. For some recent discoveries, screening is taking place for project initiation.

Job Title: Health Coordinator
Location:
Country: Chad
Company: International Rescue Committee
________________________________________
Description:
Position: Health Coordinator
Location: Abeche, with regular visits to Bahai and other field sites as required
Reports to: Deputy Director, Programs
Duration: 12 months
ORGANIZATIONAL DESCRIPTION:
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is one of the largest humanitarian agencies in the world, providing relief, rehabilitation and post-conflict reconstruction support to victims of oppression and violent conflict. IRC has worked for over seven decades and today is involved in over 25 conflict zones in the world. We address both the immediate, life saving needs of conflict affected people in an emergency and the reconstruction needs in post conflict societies. IRC is committed to a culture of bold leadership, innovation in all aspects of our work, creative partnerships and thorough accountability to those we serve. The IRC is an international agency with offices in London, New York, and Geneva.
BACKGROUND:
In response to a growing humanitarian crisis and the influx of refugees into Chad, the IRC launched programs in Chad in February 2004, focusing on the most urgent needs of water and sanitation, education, health, and protection. IRC program activities have been concentrated on the northernmost refugee population centers in Chad, which are located in the Prefecture of Borkou-Ennedi-Tibesti (BET), near the towns of Bahai and Cariari. In July 2004, the refugees were moved to Oure Cassoni camp, which was built and is managed by the IRC with support from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). IRC is currently responsible for the Primary Health Care, Environmental Health, Protection, Camp Management, Gender-based Violence, Child and Youth Protection and Education programs assisting the approximately 29,000 refugees in the camp.

ORGANIZATIONAL DESCRIPTION:
The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is one of the largest humanitarian agencies in the world, providing relief, rehabilitation and post-conflict reconstruction support to victims of oppression and violent conflict. IRC has worked for over seven decades and today is involved in over 25 conflict zones in the world. We address both the immediate, life saving needs of conflict affected people in an emergency and the reconstruction needs in post conflict societies. IRC is committed to a culture of bold leadership, innovation in all aspects of our work, creative partnerships and thorough accountability to those we serve. The IRC is an international agency with offices in London, New York, and Geneva.
BACKGROUND:
In response to a growing humanitarian crisis and the influx of refugees into Chad, the IRC launched programs in Chad in February 2004, focusing on the most urgent needs of water and sanitation, education, health, and protection. IRC program activities have been concentrated on the northernmost refugee population centers in Chad, which are located in the Prefecture of Borkou-Ennedi-Tibesti (BET), near the towns of Bahai and Cariari. In July 2004, the refugees were moved to Oure Cassoni camp, which was built and is managed by the IRC with support from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). IRC is currently responsible for the Primary Health Care, Environmental Health, Protection, Camp Management, Gender-based Violence, Child and Youth Protection and Education programs assisting the approximately 29,000 refugees in the camp.
The health program supports the health and physical well-being of the refugees in the camp through provision of clinical health services, essential drugs, basic laboratory services, public health and community outreach through a team of community health workers, basic immunizations to children and pregnant women, reproductive health services, and referrals to secondary and tertiary care facilities, through a team of 1 expatriate manager, and additional national and refugee staff. The IRC health program also provides technical and material support to the local Chad Ministry of Health Bahai Hospital and Health Post under an expatriate program manager. The health program works closely with other sectors to ensure a holistic and thorough approach to preventive and curative health services in refugee and host communities.
In 2008, IRC Chad aims to expand programs in mainly the East of Chad, focused primarily on refugees and IDP's, based on the needs of the target population.
