Overview
World Vision International is strengthening its global Staff Care & Well-being approach to ensure that staff are supported not only through formal services, but through clear systems, accessible resources, and consistent follow-through that translate commitment into impact.
We are seeking a Coordinator, Staff Care & Well-being to help ensure that the operational, learning, and coordination foundations of the function are strong, reliable, and responsive.

Why this role matters

You do not need to be a subject-matter expert in mental health or staff care, but you do need to care about dignity, sustainability, and creating conditions where people can do their work well.
