RedR Recruitment  

 

RedR operates a recruitment service which is designed to serve:

  • Individuals who wish to offer their services to humanitarian programmes.
  • Aid agencies which wish to find appropriate personnel for their programmes.

It should be noted that most RedR offices do not directly employ any personnel to send on aid programmes but assists the frontline agencies in finding their appropriate people.

The RedR Registers

The Members of RedR's Registers form a unique body of highly motivated and competent individuals who can be called upon at very short notice to strengthen the response of front-line humanitarian agencies.
Members of RedR's registers are carefully interviewed and selected for their personal and professional qualities and references taken. While engineering and related technical skills lie at the heart of RedR, the range of competencies represented on the registers continues to grow. The ability to work effectively in a team without taking unnecessary risks under stressful and often dangerous conditions is considered to be of utmost importance.

RedR seeks to find the best match between the requirements of any assignment and the profile of available members. RedR's membership includes those with many years experience in disaster work as well as those just starting in the sector. Programme managers/co-ordinators and highly specialised technical experts as well as those with practical hands-on skills are all represented on the registers and a growing number of members have experience in assessing needs and establishing programmes in the critical first few weeks of an emergency.
If you would like to join the RedR Register, or you are an agency interested in using the Register to find appropriate personnel.

To join or use the RedR register, please contact your local office

The RedR Recruitment Database

The Recruitment Database differs from the Register in that the service can be tailored to the requirements of the requesting agency. The database holds the curricula vitae of personnel but they may not have been interviewed nor references taken. This could be done, if requested, by RedR or the agency may chose to do it themselves

The service is provided to organisations working in humanitarian programmes and our aim is to find the best person to meet the needs of the organisation. We have many years experience in finding, selecting and assessing humanitarian personnel and in working closely with a wide range of humanitarian organisations.

We can provide candidates with a wide range of expertise, including engineering and health, logistics, management, administration and finance and much more.

Organisations we work with include CAFOD, Care International, Care Australia,Catholic Relief Services,CHF International,DFID, Concern Worldwide, Handicap International UK, International Rescue Committee, Islamic Relief, Merlin, Oxfam, the Red Cross, Save the Children, UNHCR, UNICEF, UN, OCHA and World Food Programme.
