• A strong understanding of logistics coordination, supply chain management, and operational support in remote or disaster-affected settings.

What We’re Looking For

We are seeking senior logisticians and project managers with experience in operational logistics, supply chain, or humanitarian response—ideally with deployments in the Pacific—who can operate independently and as part of cross-functional teams in high-pressure, low-resource environments. The ideal candidate will have strong project management, problem-solving, and communication skills, as well as cultural competency and the ability to engage diplomatically with diverse stakeholders. You should be willing and able to deploy at short notice, including to remote or austere locations.
