International Postings

The international work of UNHCR is diverse and highly challenging. It may range from one of many specialist positions in the agency's headquarters in Geneva to becoming a protection officer, program or logistics expert in some of the world's most difficult trouble spots such as Afghanistan or Liberia. International positions are not recruited through Australia for UNHCR’s Sydney office, therefore if you would like to learn more we recommend you visit the international website.
