Rashad Ahmed Saeed Ismail Taiz, Yemen (ashamsani2@gmail.com), (Mobile: +967-771208108) July 20, 2025 Dear in Concerned Team, I am writing to express my interest in a position with your organization. With over 10 years of humanitarian experience in protection coordination, strategic planning, multi-stakeholder engagement, and program management across Yemen’s complex contexts, I am confident my expertise aligns with your requirements and make me a competitive candidate for this role. As a Manager of Accountable and Inclusive Programming (AIP) at the International Medical Corps (IMC), I led cross-sectoral initiatives to align programs with Core Humanitarian Standards (CHS), designed protection strategies, and mobilized resources for inclusive interventions. This included developing community feedback mechanisms (CBRM) and ensuring accountability to affected populations (AAP) across project cycles. My work as a Senior Protection Officer at the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC) equipped me with critical cluster coordination skills. I represented NRC in Sana’a Protection Cluster meetings, developed protection mainstreaming tools for livelihoods and education sectors, and managed protection budgets. I also spearheaded protection assessments and monitoring frameworks in coordination with M&E teams. At Oxfam GB, I managed partnerships with local NGOs and government entities, assessing capacities and designing tailored capacity-building plans. This honed my ability to foster multi-stakeholder collaboration. My contextual knowledge of Yemen’s humanitarian landscape, especially IRG-controlled areas like Taiz and Hodeidah, ensures my grounded coordination abilities. This experience have developed my knowledge and the key qualifications required for this position like team management, capacity building, partnership building & management, protection coordination, closter and community engagement, strategic leadership, Yemen field work context, and language & Analysis abilities. In addition, my background in protection mainstreaming, resource mobilization, and community accountability which positions me to effectively undertake the different tasks outlined in this role in alignment with humanitarian principles and the organization strategy and objectives. Thank you for considering my application. I am available to start immediately and welcome any further discussion in this regard. Sincerely, Rashad Ahmed Saeed
