General profile requirements

In humanitarian crises, all actors must be able to rely on secure information. They need to know how many people are in an area, what the needs of the affected population are and which organisations are already providing support.

For this purpose, Information Management Officers collect, process and share data and information. They thereby support humanitarian coordination and enable the provision of rapid and effective assistance.

ZIF is looking for Information Management Officers who can perform at least two of the following four Information Management tasks: Data management, Mapping, Graphic Design/Web Management and Data Analysis.
