§ Archival Expertise: Specialist-level understanding of core archival principles (provenance, original order, metadata, data management, ingest, accessioning). Expertise in arrangement, description, and preservation techniques for digital archives.

§ Technical Prowess: Specialist skills in managing digital archives and repository systems. Experience with archival metadata standards and their application. Proven ability to ingest, arrange, and describe digital records. Technical expertise in managing, preserving, and managing metadata for digital archival records including building and maintaining semantic ontologies.

§ Data Science Acumen: Strong knowledge of data models and AI applications in archival contexts. Experience with automatic metadata generation, digitization projects, and machine learning for information extraction.

§ Essential Skills: Excellent organizational, analytical, and communication skills (written and oral French and English). Ability to work independently and collaboratively in a multicultural environment. Proficiency in MS Office applications.

What we offer:

The ICRC offers a unique opportunity to contribute to the preservation of an invaluable part of human history. As a Digital Archivist, you will play a vital role in safeguarding and digitizing the ICRC's archives, a rich collection documenting humanitarian action during conflict and violence from 1863 to the present. This is a chance to shape the future of how these historical records are accessed and utilized, ensuring that future generations can learn from the ICRC's legacy and understand the evolution of international humanitarian law. You will be part of an organization dedicated to humanitarian protection and assistance, contributing directly to its mission of accountability, transparency, and informed decision-making.
