**Context & Mission
***:
For 50 years, MSF has been providing medical assistance to populations facing life-threatening crises: mainly armed conflicts, but also epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare. All these situations require appropriate medical and logístical resources.
The Programme Responsible (RP) and Deputy Programme Responsible (ARP) are central positions in MSF, accountable for the activities of the organisation in the field and acting as interface between the missions and the headquarters.
This comes with a responsibility to ensure coherence and dynamism at all levels of the OCG by:
- organizing the best possible circulation of information coming from the field,
- making coordinations aware of headquarter issues,
- promoting internal understanding and visibility of programmes (i.e. presentation to the Geneva morning info point),
- using the various forums in the office to share operational challenges, dilemmas, concerns and achievements.
**Responsibilities**:
- In accordance with the Charter, the Chantilly / La Mancha agreements and the operational policy of the OCG, the Programme Responsible ensures the overall relevance, timeliness and quality of MSF’s assistance for populations in danger (within a selected group of countries).

- Creates and maintains a network of relevant political, humanitarian, medical, academic contacts to ensure the best knowledge of the environment for the teams working in the field, especially in tense contexts.
- Monitors the level of exposure to risk affecting teams in the field and validates the security frame proposed by the heads of mission for each project;
- Supervises, advises, supports and evaluates the heads of mission in the fulfilment of their global responsibilities / duties; in this perspective, delivers them all useful information and visits the missions at key moments (explos, programme definition phases and/or reorientations due to evolving needs, context or policy).
- Organizes the best level of headquarter support to field operations by optimizing the input, the expertise and control function of professionals from different departments, each representing a technical field necessary for the good running of projects in the field.
- Monitors the implementation of programmes and the good running of the mission, by analyzing the situation and programme reports sent by the coordination, and providing feedback; is accountable for the timely reporting on operations, including towards institutional donors who support MSF’s action in the field.
