Recruitment notice: A CASHIER at Première Urgence Internationale (PUI)

Context

Première Urgence Internationale (PUI) is a Non-Governmental Organization of international solidarity, non-profit, apolitical and secular. Its objective is to meet all the basic needs of civilian victims endangered, marginalized or excluded by the effects of natural disasters, wars and situations of economic collapse. PUI is present in 22 countries, in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the Caucasus and the Caribbean, and operates in the areas of food security, health, nutrition, infrastructure rehabilitation, water and sanitation and economic recovery.

 

 

 

PUI has been present in Cameroon since 2008, first on the East / Adamaoua front then in the Far North (EN) in 2014/2015, via its base in Maroua. It carries out emergency and recovery activities in Water, Hygiene and Sanitation (WASH), Nutritional Food Security and Livelihoods (SANME), Essential Household Items (AME)/Shelter. Since 2017, PUI has expanded into Logone-et-Chari (LC) from its base in Kousseri where teams carry out projects in SANME, EHA, Abri AME as part of the Rapid Response Mechanism (RRM).

In addition, Cameroon has been facing an internal crisis since 2016 in the English-speaking regions of the North-West and South-West. This situation leads to population movements fleeing to areas considered safer, particularly in the West region which is one of the main reception points for the displaced and in which PUI has decided to implement a project RRM inspired by the project in the Far North and adapted to the local context. This project covers the Food Assistance, WASH and Shelter/AME sectors.
