**Can you provide strategic HR leadership to support emergency health operations in a complex conflict setting?**
UK-Med is a frontline medical aid charity. Born of the NHS, we’ve been working for over 30 years towards a world where everyone has the healthcare they need when crises or disasters hit.
We are currently expanding our emergency health response in Gaza, where communities are facing a prolonged and highly complex humanitarian crisis. We are seeking an experienced HR Manager to lead and deliver high-quality, field-based human resources support to enable safe, effective, and responsive programme delivery.
As HR Manager, you will play a critical role in supporting the Gaza response by ensuring workforce planning, recruitment, staff wellbeing, safeguarding, and HR compliance systems are effectively implemented. You will work closely with field leadership and HQ teams to maintain a capable, supported, and resilient workforce, while ensuring duty of care and staff welfare remain central in a high-risk operating environment.
Our ideal candidate will be an experienced humanitarian HR professional with strong operational expertise in emergency settings, proven ability to support international teams in complex and insecure contexts, and the judgement and resilience required to manage workforce challenges in a rapidly evolving crisis.
