Formation / DiplĂ´mes

Madagascar remains one of the countries facing significant development and humanitarian challenges, with children being disproportionately affected by poverty, climate shocks, recurrent emergencies, limited access to basic services, and persistent inequalities. UNICEF Madagascar works alongside the Government, development partners, civil society and communities to promote and protect the rights of every child through integrated programmes in health, nutrition, education, child protection, social policy, WASH and emergency response. To deliver results efficiently and accountably in such a complex operating environment, UNICEF relies on strong operational systems, effective risk management practices, and robust oversight mechanisms. The Operations function plays a critical role in ensuring that financial, administrative and governance processes support programme delivery while safeguarding resources and maintaining compliance with organizational policies and standards. Within this context, the Senior Operations Associate (Risk Management and HACT) contributes to strengthening the office’s risk management and assurance framework. The position supports proactive identification and mitigation of operational, fiduciary and compliance risks, quality assurance of HACT activities and follow-up of corrective actions, while promoting efficient use of resources and continuous process improvement. Working closely with programme and operations teams, implementing partners and field offices, the incumbent contributes to enhancing accountability, transparency, value for money and organizational performance, thereby supporting UNICEF Madagascar in achieving sustainable results for children.

  • •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.
