WAM Technical Field Manager, Peru
The starting salary package for this position is £65,324 GBP / approx. $88,700 USD including all allowances.
This is an unaccompanied post.
About MAG:
MAG (Mines Advisory Group) is an international humanitarian organisation based in Manchester, UK, and working in 32 countries. We remove landmines and unexploded ordnance to release safe and productive land for communities, and work to reduce the threat of armed violence by supporting governments to safely manage weapons and ammunition. In 1997, MAG was a co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for our work campaigning for the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention.
About the role:
Our Technical Field Managers are the core of our work and actively manage and lead our teams of staff to safely implement our life saving Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) projects. Reporting to the Technical Operations Manager, you will implement all aspects of Weapons and Ammunition Management (WAM) and related tasks in accordance with Standard Operating Procedures. This will include performing large scale EOD operations across the country, delivery of training to stakeholders, rehabilitation and/or construction of new facilities and monitoring of all staff carrying out technical operations to ensure safe practices and in order to build a local capacity for WAM activities. In addition, you will support the Technical Operations Manager (TOM) in ensuring overall safe execution of all MAG technical activities within the country.
About the Peru programme:
Since 2017, MAG has been conducting dedicated Physical Security and Stockpile Management (PSSM) activities in Peru. Currently, it is implementing a Conventional Weapons Destruction Programme and additional capacity building activities, both of which are funded by the US Government.
MAG effort in Peru is focused on enhancing the national PSSM capacity and reducing the risk and impact of unplanned explosions at munitions sites (UEMS) as well as the consequences of weapons and munitions being diverted to the illicit arms trade. Unplanned explosions and arms proliferation both have a devastating humanitarian impact and strategically destabilising consequences; both of these issues represent a tangible concern in Peru and in the wider Latin America and Caribbean Region (LAC). Recently MAG is carrying out a scale-up of its business operation in Peru and in the LAC region.
