Administration Intern

About this role

UNHCR is seeking an Administration Intern to support its Representation Office in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, during a period of transition as the office prepares to relocate to shared premises with UNICEF. The internship offers practical exposure to records management, information handling, and administrative coordination within a United Nations humanitarian agency. The intern will assist with the review, organization, digitization, and secure transfer of designated physical records. The work must take account of available storage space and business continuity needs as the office prepares for the move.

Under staff supervision, the intern will support day-to-day activities connected with preparing records for relocation, maintaining orderly information handling, and coordinating administrative tasks linked to the premises change. The position is intended to provide hands-on learning while contributing to the office's operational readiness. The source does not specify particular academic credentials, years of experience, or mandatory technical skills for this internship. It states that an intern is required to support the office and that the work will be performed under staff supervision.

No separate list of preferred or desirable qualifications is provided. Applicants should therefore refer to the standard job description and any additional guidance from UNHCR for detailed eligibility requirements. UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, is the employer. The role sits within the UNHCR Representation Office in Dar es Salaam, which is preparing to share premises with UNICEF.

The assignment is therefore closely tied to an office relocation and records management exercise. The contract is a full-time internship based in Dar es Salaam. The target start date is 16 November 2026. The posting indicates that the position does not require a functional clearance and is not remote.

The intern will work under staff supervision. No salary, stipend, or other benefits are mentioned in the supplied text. Applications must be submitted through UNHCR's process by 4 November 2026.
