Médecins Sans Frontières Vacancies for Medical Staff, November 2014


Médecins Sans Frontières is a private, non-profit international humanitarian organization dedicated to providing medical assistance to populations in crisis, without discrimination and regardless of race, religion, creed or political affiliation.


Since June 2008, in close collaboration with Jigawa Ministry of Health, MSF has been active in Jahun General Hospital with the objective of improving access to obstetric and neonatal care for women of childbearing age in order to reduce the maternal and neonatal mortality rates and increase the quality and quantity of care for women with existing fistula.
To be able to cover some Human Resources gaps (annual leave, maternity leave, sick leave, etc.) or to response effectively to an eventual increase of the activity, MSF wants to constitute a pool of medical daily workers that can be called at any time in case of need.

For this reason, MSF is presently seeking applicants for the following positions:



1.            Medical doctor
2.            Midwife
3.            Nurse-Anaesthetist
4.            Nurse
5.            Nurse Assistant
