HR manager in Team4ua

Introduction:

In 2024, Ukraine announced a mandatory evacuation due to increased shelling and air attacks by Russian forces on the frontline regions. Daily shelling of Kharkiv Oblast, Sumy Oblast, and Donetsk Oblast has led to significant internal migration, and more than 15,000 civilians in Pokrovsk are under immediate threat. According to the UN, more than 300,000 people in these regions need support, but financial resources for evacuation are limited.

Project "Emergency assistance and evacuation support" from Team4UA offers a comprehensive solution that provides safe transportation and temporary housing for civilians from risk areas. The TERA Consortium, created by Team4UA together with Ukrainian NGOs, includes East SOS as a leading associate partner, as well as the Charitable Organization Aid Coordination Center and Angels of Salvation as members of the Consortium, coordinating evacuation efforts with a focus on vulnerable population groups.

Team4UA Description:

Team4UA is a Ukrainian charitable organization established in March 2022 with experience in the field of emergency relief, recovery and innovative reconstruction projects. We cooperate with UN agencies (WFP, UNICEF) and international organizations and foundations (Mercy Corps, TED). Since its founding, Team4UA has provided humanitarian assistance to 2.3 million people, including implementing projects such as the construction of a school in Lviv using 3D concrete printing technology.

Team4UA was created by a team of former technology entrepreneurs who combined their skills and experience to solve the most important long-term needs of Ukraine. The organization has extensive experience working in frontline regions and areas most affected by hostilities, in particular near the border with Russia. Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, our activities have covered the most difficult-to-reach areas, as well as those with the highest concentration of internally displaced persons or people returning home.

Team4UA teams are based in Lviv, where they provide administrative and financial support, in Kyiv, where our headquarters is located, and in Dnipro, where operational activities, monitoring and evaluation of projects are carried out.
