Every year MSF sends over 3,000 international field workers to join more than 37,000 locally hired staff around the world. They provide emergency medical assistance to people whose survival is threatened by armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from health care or natural disasters.
We have a particular need for medical doctors (General Practitioners), epidemiologists, psychologists, obstetricians/ gynaecologists, orthopedic surgeons and anesthetists. These roles have increased in the field, especially in conflict settings, and we are launching more programs focusing on mother-child and reproductive healthcare. We very much welcome applicants from these profiles.
MSF-Hong Kong accepts applications from residents/domiciles of these regions:
Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Myanmar, The Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam
If you are a resident or citizen of a country not in this list, please visit our international page to find your nearest MSF office.

Recruitment and assessment sessions
MSF-Hong Kong organises recruitment and assessment sessions periodically in greater China and many Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia. During the session, recently returned field workers give a presentation about their mission and share their experiences in the field with potential field workers. Information sessions are often combined with recruitment sessions.
If you meet the requirements for the field position(s) and are interested in being one of the field workers, we welcome you to join the information sessions. The sessions will give you better understanding of work in the field and help you prepare for your future mission. If your background and experience does not match with the available field positions, you might want to consider working as an office volunteer.
