- UNHCR Netherlands is looking for an enthusiastic professional to support the Private Partnerships & Philanthropy (PPH) programme in the Netherlands.

Who are we?

Established in December 1950, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is mandated to lead and co-ordinate international action to protect and assist refugees, forcibly displaced communities and stateless people. UNHCR works in over 135 countries to protect and care for over 84 million people.

UNHCR is funded almost entirely by voluntary contributions from governments with a portion coming from the private sector. In 2020 income from the private sector contributed 10% to UNHCR’s overall budget. UNHCR operates private sector fundraising programmes in over 30 markets.

In the current global context, new support for and deeper engagement in the refugee cause is essential. Particularly, expanding private sector fundraising to broaden the donor base is imperative in times of ever-growing humanitarian needs and increased competition over scarce governmental resources. UNHCR’s Private Sector Partnerships (PSP) plays a crucial role in helping expand the organization’s funding base, by raising funds from both individual giving and private sector sources, ensuring a sustainable and predictable stream of income.

This position will sit within UNHCR’s Private Partnerships & Philanthropy team (PPH) in the Netherlands, which aims to raise funds from Foundations, Major Donors and Corporations in the Netherlands to support UNHCR’s work.
