Senior Assessment Officer Cross-Cutting Unit Support for Afghanistan

vor 2 Monaten

Genf, Schweiz Impact Initiatives Vollzeit
We are currently looking for an Assessment Officer / Senior Officer to support cross-cutting research portfolios on Afghanistan, from HQ.

IMPACT has been active in Afghanistan since 2016, launching its flagship REACH and AGORA initiatives in 2018. Working across all 34 provinces, including hard-to-reach areas, the Afghanistan team’s research supports and facilitates emergency response efforts immediately following conflict or natural disaster, inter-sectoral research that informs humanitarian planning and prioritization cycles, as well as more long-term oriented resilience and recovery activities with cross-cutting climate change research. IMPACT Afghanistan currently has three research portfolios that focus on programming in key response areas: one portfolio focuses on inter-sectoral research that feeds directly into emergency humanitarian planning and prioritization (including real-time monitoring), the second works closely with partners and coordinating bodies to improve and increase the sustainability of programs, and the third uses area-based assessments, advocacy, and strategic engagement to support longer-term durable solutions and resilience programming in Afghanistan.

IMPACT Afghanistan has established a strong presence as a key information actor across the Afghanistan response. The mission is looking to strengthen its current research portfolios by ensuring that additional assessment support is consistently available to teams to ensure high quality delivery of diverse programming.

The Assessment Officer / Senior Officer will be responsible for supporting a diverse portfolio of research including multi-sectoral and inter-sectoral research, real-time monitoring and emergency warning systems, climate change preparedness, area-based assessments for durable solutions and sustainability, cash and markets, and other key topics as they arise. The Officer / Senior Officer should have a solid understanding of different research cycles and methodologies and be able to quickly learn and apply these within the context of different topics, with guidance from IMPACT Afghanistan and IMPACT HQ colleagues. This profile should be able to write terms of reference and design research, input on tools, oversee data collection and analysis, and write up findings in factsheets and presentations. Depending on level of seniority, this profile may also take on external engagement with key stakeholders in clusters and working groups to gather subject matter expertise and share back key findings for decision making.

This position requires technical understanding of research, ability to quickly learn, creativity, independence, and an interest in the Afghanistan context. The position will be based in HQ and will fall under the supervision of a Senior Assessment Officer or Research Manager (depending on seniority). Candidate should have strong technical skills and be able to analyze and present key findings.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
  • For this position, gross salary between 5’500 CHF and 5’700 CHF monthly (before income tax).
    • NB – IMPACT salaries are strictly determined by our salary grid depending on the grade of the position and the level of education and experience of staff. A contribution to medical insurance of 520 CHF per month is already included in the salary figure.
  • Insurance covering professional and non-professional accidents throughout the period of employment with IMPACT.
  • Health insurance, life insurance and repatriation assistance in case of field visits/temporary deployments.
  • Enrolment in IMPACT Initiatives Research Foundational Learning Programme within the first 3 months from the start of contract.
  • Applicants must hold a valid work permit for Switzerland or be EU/EFTA citizens.
  • Up to 40% of remote work on a weekly basis.
