Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You will be the backbone of WFP’s Lusaka office operations, coordinating staff travel bookings, visa processing, and per diem calculations while managing asset inventory, disposal, and maintenance records. Your day-to-day ensures field teams get where they need to go safely and that every laptop, vehicle, and generator is accounted for—critical for WFP’s food assistance logistics across Zambia.
Key skills to highlight
Showcase your ability to juggle travel logistics (booking flights, tracking expenses) and asset tracking (using inventory software or Excel). Bring evidence of handling procurement or fleet management in a UN or NGO setting. Strong attention to detail, fluency in English, and familiarity with Zambian travel regulations (e.g., immigration, fuel taxes) are non-negotiable.
Taf4All CV tip
Create a “Travel & Assets Snapshot” table at the top of your CV: list 3–4 specific achievements (e.g., “Managed 200+ staff travel requests per month with 98% on-time compliance” or “Reduced asset loss by 40% through monthly audits”). This immediately signals you understand the role’s dual focus.
Before you apply
WFP never charges fees for applications or interviews. If anyone asks for payment to “secure” this role, it’s a scam. Verify the posting on WFP’s official careers portal (career.wfp.org) before sharing personal data.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready
ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
