Background

Established in 1951, IOM is leading inter-governmental organization providing services to governments and migrants in the field of migration. With 146 member states and offices in more than 100 countries, IOM is dedicated to promoting humane and orderly migration for the benefit of all. As an important function of its mandate, IOM is the Cluster Lead Agency for Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) for natural disaster-induced displacement situations under the 2005 IASC Humanitarian Reform. The CCCM Cluster convenes a range of UN, NGO and other actors to meet the needs of the camp management and coordination sector, by producing key interagency tools, building capacity, and developing shared advocacy and policy.

On the basis of learning from a range of humanitarian settings, and the experiences of other clusters, the need for rapidly deployable capacity to support inter-agency responses has been identified as a key need in the CCCM Cluster.

Under the overall supervision of the Head of Preparedness and Response Division (PRD), the direct supervision of the Global Coordinator (CCCM, DTM and Shelter), the successful candidate will contribute to the improvement of the quality and impact of IOM CCCM operations and support the Global CCCM Cluster, with a particular focus on protection issues and strengthening capacity of cluster members, partners, and national authorities.
