Support Services Manager

DRC (Danish Refugee Council), founded in Denmark in 1956, is Denmark`s largest and the world`s leading non-profit, independent, rights-based refugee organization.

Our vision is to assist refugees, internally displaced people, and their host communities to a dignified life. We protect lives and human rights and empower beneficiaries throughout conflict displacement by providing shelter, food, and hope in terms of work, education, and integration towards a sustainable future.

Since 1998, programmes in the South Caucasus are designed through a "protection lens", ensuring that all activities integrate protection principles. As such, we will continue to work on expanding our knowledge and ensure durable solutions are provided to IDPs, returnees and host communities, and as well as make IDPs, returnees, host communities and persons in a refugee-like situation aware of and actively claim their rights, through legal assistance and awareness raising.

The main DRC donors in the South Caucasus in 2021 are the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the German Development Bank KfW, the European Union, UNDP, UNHCR and GiZ (Gesellschaft für Zusammenarbeit). Further fundraising efforts have been undertaken with other donor organizations, which could potentially affect organizational priorities, the scope of work and tasks related to this position. The operations span across the whole of Georgia with over 45 employees in 4 offices, including two field offices in Abkhazia.
