Main objectives
Carry out the assessments and ensure the implementation, day-to-day management and control of the 
technical part of projects in the energy (and HVAC if relevant) domain, in accordance with MSF 
protocols, standards and procedures in order to ensure the optimal functioning of the project and the 
infrastructures and efficient use of systems and equipment.
- In collaboration with his/her managers, provide support and guidance to the field staff in order to 
ensure that all electrical (and HVAC if relevant) installations comply with MSF standards, protocols 
and procedures, and the preventive and corrective maintenance is done accordingly.
- Carry out evaluations, feasibility and detailed studies of the project to present hierarchical superiors 
different possible solutions to the difficulties encountered in his/her area of specialization, namely 
the installation, construction and commissioning of electrical (and HVAC if relevant) installations. In 
direct contact with staff, identify project needs and manage responses of requests by establishing Vac#2026119
priorities.
- Provide support to the teams in the field in the energy (and HVAC if relevant) domain and assist in 
the training of project technicians to make them autonomous for preventive maintenance, basic 
troubleshooting and small jobs. Ensuring that technicians are able to implement safely procedure 
for themselves and users. 
- Guides and supports the field teams to define and implement preventive and corrective 
maintenance procedures
- Raises the awareness on energy use for all staff and advice on strategies to improve energy 
efficiency of the site. 
- Provide training for technicians on appropriate use and maintenance of existing and new 
installations.
- Act as an itinerant support of the mission implementing proposed solutions when needed and 
provide managers with duly documented technical advice.
- If necessary, defines procedures and / or protocols for the proper functioning of the electrical (and 
HVAC if relevant) installations in the field.
- Performs regular inspections of the interventions and condition of the electrical (and HVAC if 
relevant) installations.
- Participates in the evaluation of local actors and ensures the quality of services and supplies.
- Checks and advises on international orders for consumables and replacement equipment.
- Ensures the management of stocks and equipment in his/her specialty area at mission level
- Ensures that all design, operating and maintenance documentation is up to date (report, asset 
management tool, diagrams and layouts, consumption reports, power assessments, cooling and 
heating need assessments).
- Ensure that the right equipment and electrical tools are in place and correctly used. 
- Identifying, defining and implementing solutions and strategies that reduce the environmental 
footprint of the electrical installations (and HVAC if relevant) in the mission/projects. These 
strategies englobe not only technical solutions but also how the electrical installations are used, 
maintained and managed. The main objective of reducing the environmental footprint entails 
energy efficiency, reducing the carbon dioxide emissions, a proper waste management and the use 
of sustainable and adapted solutions according to the context.
Main responsibilities 
and tasks
- Conduct electrical safety and compliance assessments for all MSF facilities, including RCD testing, 
earthing checks, and other electrical safety inspections, and ensure adherence to MSF technical 
standards.
- Carry out HVAC condition assessments across mission facilities and contribute to the identification 
of corrective and preventive maintenance needs.
- Conduct renewable energy and solar feasibility assessments at project level, acting as technical focal 
point for the evaluation of external companies’ technical capacity and proposed solutions.
- Implement technical action plans developed jointly with the Mobile Support Technician (MST) 
Following assessments and evaluations.
- Evaluate the quality and compliance of purchased electrical and energy-related materials, including 
market assessments to identify reliable and technically sound suppliers.
- Propose and promote environmentally sustainable and energy-efficient solutions, including energy 
efficiency assessments to optimize consumption and reduce operational costs.
- Provide technical guidance and problem-solving support for electrical, HVAC, and renewable energy
installations and systems, ensuring standardized implementation in line with MSF guidelines.
- Provide technical advice and capacity building to staff on the safe use of electrical systems and 
equipment, including training of designated logistics personnel on basic and preventive use.
- Support routine minor maintenance activities and collaborate with logistics teams to develop and 
implement preventive maintenance plans for electrical, HVAC, and energy systems to minimize 
downtime and disruptions.
