Team Leader Abidjan Learning Center (ALC) (m/f/x) – MSF Belgium

CONTEXTWithin the HR department of MSF Belgium (Operational Center of Brussels – OCB), the People Development Hub aims to develop and enhance the skills, attitudes, and knowledge of the MSF global workforce to meet MSF’s operational needs and objectives. Within this hub, our Learning and Development unit (L&D) has for objective to continue building an inclusive learning organization that accommodates learning and development, recognizes the MSF staff as our main asset, and is focused on the interaction between the individual, the work context and the goals of our organization.

One of the strategic goals is to co-create and support L&D closer to the workplace by further securing connection to our countries of operation. This passes by different actions such as boosting the learning culture in operations, strengthening the capacity of the L&D teams and transforming our L&D offer to be more sustainable and accessible to all. For all these reasons, we have decided to continue investing in the Abidjan Learning Center ALC.

The ALC is a delocalized Learning Center, aligned to the OCB Networked strategy, that allows a stronger L&D offer in West Africa for OCB as well as other partners, while supporting the overall activities of the L&D unit.
