The IT Project Manager will work closely with diverse stakeholders to develop and implement tailored solutions, ensuring these are delivered on time, within budget, and aligned with strategic objectives. In this role, you will provide technical leadership within the SDE core team, manage the product development, and collaborate with technical experts from the four cosponsoring Operational Centers (OCs) of the SDE program.

We are seeking an experienced IT Project Manager with a robust background in software development and a proven track record in leading mobile application projects. Join us at Médecins Sans Frontières and contribute your expertise!
