Social Worker (Cоціальний/а працівник/ця)

INTERSOS is a humanitarian organization on the front-line of emergencies, bringing assistance to victims of armed conflicts, natural disasters and extreme exclusion with particular attention to the protection of the most vulnerable people.

Since 1992 our humanitarian workers have been helping people affected by humanitarian crises: we provide first aid, food, shelter, medical assistance and basic goods. We ensure that basic needs, as education, access to clean water and health assistance, are met.

An INTERSOS emergency team is in Lviv where we are launching an intervention to assist internally displaced people and support local health facilities close to the fighting areas, already under high pressure due to the influx of displaced people and the shortage of doctors, drugs and medical supplies. We are supporting an oncological hospital and some shelters in Lviv and we also started operating in Vinnytsia, both in the city and in the surrounding areas, with protection and health care activities. Another emergency team arrived in Odesa to deliver trauma kits and meet the growing needs of the population.

INTERSOS is opening a position of Social Worker in Vinnitsia (with frequent travels in Vinnitsia oblast).
