JOB CONTEXT: Since October 2023, Gaza has been plunged into an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe marked by mass destruction, displacement, and loss of life. By October 2025, 67,173 Palestinians were killed and 169,780 were injured while 90% of the population—2.1 million people—had been displaced multiple times. The health system is on the verge of collapse, humanitarian access remains extremely limited, and the entire population faces crisis or worse levels of food insecurity, with nearly half a million people at risk of famine. Attacks on hospitals, schools, and shelters continue, while widespread explosive ordnance contamination endangers civilians and obstructs humanitarian operations. Approximately 25% of the injured—around 22,500 people—require immediate and long-term rehabilitation, including thousands of children who have suffered life-changing injuries, with Gaza now home to the largest group of child amputees in modern history. HI Palestine is currently operating under the authority of the Emergency Division, with a dedicated governance framework adapted to the scale and complexity of the crisis. This arrangement, confirmed until the end of 2026, is intended to provide the structural flexibility and operational responsiveness required in the current context, while also anticipating and preparing for a transfer back to the Region of Mashreq. Palestine Coordination is split between Ramallah and Amman, with a West Bank area office located in Ramallah and a Gaza area office in Zuwayda. In Gaza, HI operates three offices: one in the central area (Zuwayda), one in the north (Gaza City), and one in the south (Khan Younis). The mission's operational strategy relies on 4 pillars: Health (Rehabilitation and P&O), Armed Violence Reduction, Atlas Logistics, and Education. Cross-cutting components include IHA, MHPSS, Protection Mainstreaming, and DGA. The total budget for 2026 is expected to range between 8 and 12 million EUR. HI is among the organizations that have not received registration from the Israeli authorities for the year 2026. As such, significant challenges and uncertainties remain to be addressed at the program level. YOUR MISSION: Reporting to: Country Director. Team managed: HR Department.
