**_ Context:_**

Under the overall supervision of the Director General and direct supervision of the Deputy
Director General for Operations, the Director, Department for Data, Insight and Policy
Coordination (DIPC) is responsible for leading institutional efforts on migration and displacement
data, strategic research and foresight, and shaping IOM’s work on evidence and rights-based
migration policy, law and innovative and comprehensive programming.

The Department works across IOM and with external partners to deliver on the three objectives
of IOM’s Strategic Plan: saving lives and protecting people on the move, driving solutions to
displacement and facilitating pathways for regular migration as well as advancing the
implementation of the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and accelerate
progress towards attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Comprising the Policy, Knowledge and Research Division, Global Data Institute, and IOM
Development Fund, DIPC works as an in-house think tank and enabler that seeks to empower
IOM as a thought leader and global convenor on migration and displacement, including as
Coordinator and Secretariat of the UN Network on Migration. To this end, the Department plays
a leading role in primary data collection and research on human mobility to inform analysis,
assistance, evidence-based narratives and anticipatory policy and programmatic action,
leveraging emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence and big data, where relevant.

In the context of profound global transformations and challenges impacting migration
governance across the globe — from climate change impacts to demographic shifts,
digitalization, urbanization and geopolitical tensions — the Department promotes a culture of
learning and innovation within IOM. In addition, the Department collaborates closely with
external partners in the UN system, governments, academia, civil society and the private sector
to develop and promote people-centred solutions and transformative approaches within IOM’s
programming for maximum impact and results.

**_ Core Functions / Responsibilities:_**

1. Direct and lead the development and implementation of a vision and strategy for the
Department of Data, Insight and Policy on Migration which is aligned with the organization's
Strategic Plan and goals.

2. Provide strategic leadership and expert advice on migration data, research, and policy, both
internally and externally by developing new policies, research that is informed by data,
evidence, and strategic foresights, and that promote the rights and interests of migrants and
their host communities.

3. Provide advisory support and close engagement with Member States on the Global Compact
for Migration (GCM), migration governance programming, and migration diplomacy and
dialogue.

4. Expand and strengthen partnerships in the pursuit of the GCM and Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) including direct support for mainstreaming migration consideration into
development sectoral policies and facilitating dialogue platforms for exchanging good policy
practices and experience, and South-South and Triangular cooperations.

5. Promote the use of Data for insight and strategic foresight that facilitates regular migration
pathways, including analytics on gender, age, nationality, educational and skill profile to enable
pathways design and timely analysis of emerging trends and population movements.

6. Direct and lead the Department's budget, staff, and projects while ensuring high-quality
outputs and outcomes.

7. Build, strengthen and maintain strong relationships with key actors and networks in the
migration field, including governments, donors, civil society, academia, media, and the private
sect
