Ses missions principales consistent à réaliser des évaluations globales des risques et des vulnérabilités pour chaque bénéficiaire, à concevoir et animer des ateliers de sécurité physique et numérique, en présentiel ou à distance, et à en évaluer l’impact via des exercices de suivi-évaluation. Il assurera également des consultations individuelles de sécurité, un appui en urgence en cas d’incident, une réponse de gestion de crise, ainsi qu’un conseil continu adapté à l’évolution de la situation sécuritaire dans les pays d’intervention, avec un souci constant de protection des journalistes et de leurs sources. Le profil recherché allie une solide expérience opérationnelle et des compétences pédagogiques. Le candidat ou la candidate doit justifier d’au moins cinq ans d’expérience en gestion des risques de sécurité en Afrique de l’Est, incluant une connaissance des contextes de crise et de conflit et un travail antérieur auprès de journalistes ou de médias en danger.

D’excellentes aptitudes en communication interculturelle, une grande flexibilité, un esprit d’équipe et une maîtrise courante de l’anglais sont requis; la pratique de langues locales est un avantage comparatif. Sur le plan contractuel, il s’agit d’une consultance en freelance, sur une base ad hoc et sans volume d’heures garanti. Le contrat s’étend de septembre 2026 à juin 2027, pour une durée totale d’environ dix mois, avec une présence attendue de trois mois par semestre à Nairobi et/ou à Kampala.
