Private Sector Fundraisers

UNHCR is an international frontline humanitarian organization operating in approximately 126 countries, with 388 offices, worldwide, to help people who have
been forced to flee their homes. Some 6,600 staff are directly employed by the organization. To meet the needs of our rapidly expanding global fundraising programme,
UNHCR is looking for talented fundraisers to join the Private Sector Fundraising team. We are seeking a variety of profiles, from face-to-face experts to corporate fundraising
specialists.

- A university degree (Bachelors or Masters) in a field relevant to the functions in the
job description: Marketing, Business Administration, Fundraising, Public Relations,
Public Administration, Communications or a related discipline;
- minimum of three years of international working experience in the relevant
functional area;
- Excellent knowledge of English and working knowledge of another relevant UN
language (Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish). Additional languages would
be an asset;
- Ability to work well in a multicultural team.

Focusing on two main income pillars, leadership giving and individual giving, UNHCR’s Private Sector Fundraising Service (PSFR) plays a crucial role in helping
expand the organization’s funding base, while ensuring a sustainable and predictable stream of income. Although currently representing a small portion of
UNHCR’s overall revenues, the contribution from the private sector is nonetheless significant and rapidly increasing as is evidenced
by the more than US$ 100 million in funds raised for 2011.
