The Forum on Early Warning and Early Response (FEWER) is a new
international consortium of 22 IGOs, NGOs and academic institutions
(from Africa, Asia, North America, and East/West Europe) which
produces conflict early warning reports for decision-makers at
national, regional and international levels. Early warning pilot
projects have been established in Central Africa and the Caucasus. 
The aim is to collect and analyse information on crisis prone/affected
areas and develop reports with strategic responses for concerned
parties.
 
FEWER now requires a dynamic Executive Director to lead the
Secretariat (headquarters) of FEWER, and establish FEWER as an
initiative with a significant international role in supporting
conflict prevention efforts. The Secretariat is currently hosted by
International Alert (London) and will, in future, be located either in
Britain or Switzerland.  The Secretariat is staffed by four people.

The Executive Director will have extensive practical knowledge of
early warning in conflict areas and the capacity to lead and develop
FEWER. He/she will be responsible for fund-raising, monitoring quality
standards, and ensuring that member organisations are effectively
supported in their early warning work.  He/she has to be capable of
engaging decision makers in a variety of states, NGOs, international
organisations as well working with researchers in academic
institutions.  The salary level is � 35-40 000. FEWER is an equal
opportunities employer.
