Human Resources and Organisational Development Officer AT WaterAid Nigeria

Job description

It’s hard to believe that today over 663 million people still don’t have clean, safe water and over 2.4 billion live without a toilet. The resulting diseases kill one child every minute.

Nearly 60 million people – 31% of the Nigerian population – do not have access to safe water; while 71% of the population lacks access to basic sanitation, that’s over 130 million people without a toilet!

Around 45,000 children under the age of five in Nigeria die from diarrhoeal diseases caused by the nation’s poor levels of access to water, sanitation and hygiene.

WaterAid is looking for a Human Resources and Organisational Development Officer to play a vital role in changing this narrative and contribute to our mission to transform lives with safe water, sanitation and hygiene in the world’s poorest communities

The Human Resources and Organisational Development Officer will have the space to learn and apply cutting edge people management principles and practices in a highly dynamic global organisation. This exciting role will be challenged to apply great initiative and innovative thought in managing day to day operational HR activities including recruitment, induction, performance management, managing employee engagement processes and activities, administration of staff benefits and manage human resources records/documentation.

The ideal candidate will have a graduate level qualification in the social or management sciences, and be a certified HR practitioner of at least six years standing. The candidate will clearly demonstrate strong expertise as an HR generalist and experience gained about best practices in contemporary people management especially in the key areas of responsibility: recruitment, induction, performance management, managing employee engagement processes and activities, administration of staff benefits etc.
