Country Background:

NRC has been present in Iraq since 2010 helping to support the almost ten million people who are in need of immediate help.  As violence continues to escalate across the country, 3.4 million Iraqis are now displaced and reaching people in need remains one of our greatest challenges. We expect new waves of displacement as the crisis prolongs and needs surge, particularly in areas with heavy fighting.  We have scaled up our response across Iraq to meet the large-scale crisis facing the country and we prioritise reaching more vulnerable people in areas that are difficult to access.

We are seeking a motivated humanitarian professional to join our growing team in Iraq. They are a university graduate with at least 3 years’ experience in an international NGO in an emergency setting, including M&E capacity and systems development. They have thorough experience with and knowledge of principles and current approaches to monitoring and evaluation in relief and development programs, using both quantitative and qualitative methods. They also have an understanding of data and information needs for program management and decision making.

We are particularly looking for an individual with strong project and people management skills, experience facilitating the capacity building efforts of diverse colleagues, including local partner agencies. Also demonstrated ability to transfer knowledge to diverse audiences through training, mentoring and other formal and non-formal methods.

If this sounds like you, apply now to join one of the world’s leading INGO’s and be part of a team of highly motivated and expert staff who are making a difference to the most vulnerable people in the world's biggest displacement crisis.
