We are currently looking for a GIS Officer to be part of a project supporting local actors in conflict-affected areas to plan and implement localised humanitarian and early recovery activities. This role involves supporting the assessment team in the collection and management of spatial datasets, and the development of maps for REACH and its partners.
REACH Initiative is a unique humanitarian NGO, which provides research, data, and analysis to support more effective humanitarian intervention in crisis contexts. By providing precise and rigorous information on the humanitarian situation of crisis-affected populations in Ukraine, REACH informs better aid delivery and more transparent and reliable decision making. In Ukraine, REACH is hosted by our sister organisation, ACTED.
Present in Ukraine since 2014, REACH has scaled up its activities following the escalation of the conflict in February 2022. REACH is working across the country to provide humanitarian actors with rigorous data and in-depth analysis to ensure aid interventions are timely, appropriate, and relevant. As part of this, the Humanitarian Infrastructure and Damage Unit (HIDU) analyses the short- and long-term humanitarian impact of conflict-related damage to the built and natural environments, identifies and tackles knowledge gaps, and supports the humanitarian community and national authorities in addressing the immediate consequences of the conflict and informing a sustainable and climate-sensitive recovery.
In this context, IMPACT is looking for an experienced GIS Officer to be part of a project supporting local actors in conflict-affected areas to plan and implement localised humanitarian and early recovery activities. Within this project, implemented in close coordination with various IMPACT units and external partners, the GIS Officer will provide direct GIS consultative support and capacity building activities. This involves regular meetings with local partners, the development of mapping products and geo-spatial datasets, remote sensing tasks, and the planning and facilitation of capacity building activities such as workshops and training sessions. In addition to technical GIS proficiency, the ideal candidate will possess good communication skills and experience in facilitation and stakeholder engagement.
