**Organizational Context**:
The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) is the world’s largest humanitarian organization, with a network of 191-member National Societies (NSs). The overall aim of IFRC is “to inspire, encourage, facilitate, and promote at all times all forms of humanitarian activities by NSs with a view to preventing and alleviating human suffering and thereby contributing to the maintenance and promotion of human dignity and peace in the world.” IFRC works to meet the needs and improve the lives of vulnerable people before, during and after disasters, health emergencies and other crises.

IFRC is part of the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (Movement), together with its member NSs and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The work of IFRC is guided by the following fundamental principles: humanity, impartiality, neutrality, independence, voluntary service, unity, and universality.

IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its Headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The Headquarters are organized into four main Divisions: (i) National Society Development and Coordination; (ii) Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; (iii) Management and Accountability; and (iv) People and Strategy.

IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. IFRC also has country cluster offices and country offices throughout the world, as well as services hubs. Together, the Geneva Headquarters and the field structure (regional and delegations) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.

IFRC has a zero-tolerance policy on conduct that is incompatible with the aims and objectives of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, abuse of authority, discrimination, and lack of integrity (including but not limited to financial misconduct). IFRC also adheres to strict child safeguarding principles.

The Ethical Practices Department oversees four main functions of IFRC: (i) fostering of an ethical culture; (ii) safeguarding and prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse and harassment; (iii) protection, gender and inclusion (PGI); and (iv) risk management.

The Director, Ethical Practices Department, reports directly to the Chief of Staff and Under Secretary General, who leads the People and Strategy Division. The position is located in the IFRC Headquarters in Geneva.

**Job Purpose**:
The Director is responsible and accountable for providing day-to-day management and operational support to the requirements of the organization in the areas of ethics, safeguarding and prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse and harassment, PGI, and risk management to promote trust and accountability to affected populations, partners, donors, and staff.

The Ethical Practices Department is a new entity that brings together multiple functions into one strategically aligned department. It directs IFRC’s work in ensuring that the organization operates in accordance with highest ethical standards, leads the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of ethical policies and practices, provides leadership and direction to IFRC’s work around safeguarding and prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse and harassment and PGI in programmes and operations, and fosters a strong risk management approach for the organization.

**Job Duties and Responsibilities**:
The Director will be responsible for a unified structure and approach that creates greater synergies for the new team’s operations and delivery. The Director manages and convenes the heads of each pillar, who support the Director as the departmental management team, responsible for setting shared goals and monitoring the progress of the department’s work plans. The Director plays a central role in achieving this transformation by fostering an ethical and transparent culture as well as enhancing the work of IFRC and the impact of programmes and operations. The Director has the following duties and responsibilities:

- Provide direction and oversight to the Ethical Practices Department that initially has four main pillars:

- Pillar 1**:Ethics**. Foster an ethical culture in line with IFRC policies, rules and regulations, and promote transparency and accountability across the organization.
- Pillar 2**:Safeguarding and prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse and harassment.**Ensure that IFRC-funded humanitarian programmes and operations are safe, and that the principle of ‘do not harm’ is mainstreamed in all IFRC activities.
- Pillar 3: Strengthen the PGI capac
