The UNICEF Office in DRC is looking for an experienced international Cold Chain Logistics Specialist (Vaccine Management) at P-3 level. Based in Kinshasa and working under the guidance of the Immunization Supply Chain Manager, you will support the Ministry of Health and provincial EPI teams to strengthen vaccine management, cold chain performance, and logistics coordination, for routine immunization, supplementary immunization activities, and the ongoing response to polio outbreaks. Your work will translate directly into fewer stock-outs, less wastage, better temperature monitoring, stronger data, and ultimately, more children reached with life-saving vaccines.
This is a role for someone who thrives at the intersection of technical excellence and field reality, a logistician at heart, a coach to national teams, and a trusted partner to government counterparts and GPEI partners alike. You will help shape the systems that keep DRC on the path toward a polio-free future, while building the routine immunization foundations that will protect generations to come.
If you are that person, passionate about making a lasting difference for children in DRC, energized by complex operational challenges, and ready to bring your expertise to one of the most consequential immunization programs in the world — join UNICEF, the world's leading organization for the defense of children's rights. Together, we can ensure that no child in DRC is left behind because a vaccine didn't reach them in time.
The DRC was certified free of wild poliovirus in 2015 but circulating vaccine-derived polioviruses (cVDPV1 and cVDPV2) remain a significant public health threat. Between 2017 and 2025, the country reported 1,292 variant poliovirus cases. Intensified response efforts reduced cases from 540 in 2022 to 18 in 2025. In 2026, four cVDPV2 cases were detected in Maniema Province, while the latest cVDPV1 case was reported in June 2025 in Tsopo Province. The DRC remains among the highest-risk countries in the WHO African Region, requiring sustained campaigns and stronger routine immunization.
Routine immunization is hindered by persistent bottlenecks, limited cold chain capacity, weak stock management, inadequate temperature monitoring, poor equipment maintenance, stock-outs, and inconsistent data quality, all of which undermine vaccine potency and programme performance.
Under the technical supervision of the Polio Coordinator, the Health Specialist (Data Management – Polio) will strengthen the cVDPV1 and cVDPV2 outbreak response, focusing on data quality, equity analysis, accountability, and evidence-based decision-making.
The incumbent will contribute to: (i) improved quality, availability, and use of polio and routine vaccination data; (ii) evidence-based decision-making for outbreak response; (iii) improved performance and equity of vaccination campaigns; (iv) strengthened accountability through digital payment systems; and (v) sustained progress toward interruption of cVDPV transmission in the DRC.
The consultancy aims to generate a comprehensive, human rights–based and equity focused analysis of the situation of children and adults with disabilities in Syria, with a view to strengthening national systems, informing disability inclusive policies, and improving access to services across sectors.

The assignment will also evaluate system readiness, community attitudes, accessibility of justice mechanisms, existing referral pathways, and the roles of key stakeholders.
