1. Duty Station of the Consultancy: Ukraine, Home based (with frequent time spent at the IOM Kyiv Office)
2. Duration of Consultancy: 6 months, with possibility of extension pending available funds and satisfactory job performance
3. Nature of the Consultancy

Under the overall supervision of the Chief of Mission (CoM) and the direct supervision of the Project Officer (HREF) and with technical guidance from the Information Management Officer, the Consultant will be engaged to develop a robust information management approach and relevant tools for HREF. The primary objective is to ensure that information is effectively stored, updated and made accessible to relevant stakeholders. The Consultant will assess internal and external information management gaps, propose an approach to addressing these gaps, and develop appropriate, user-friendly tools.

1. Project Context and Scope

This consultancy supports the project “Hromada Reconstruction and Empowerment Facility (HREF)” - a project financed by the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany through the German Development Bank (KfW) - to contribute to hromada-driven recovery processes that strengthen resilience and promote durable solutions for conflict-affected communities in Ukraine.?
The ongoing war in Ukraine has led to large-scale population movement. To support the creation of conditions that are conducive for durable solutions, IOM has developed a multi-sectoral, area-based and community-driven approach towards resilience and recovery at the local level. This includes restoration of critical public infrastructure and services, as well as other socio-economic recovery interventions. The HREF aims to empower hromada authorities and diverse local actors to develop and implement resilience and recovery plans through inclusive participatory planning. This will help tailor the recovery interventions to the local context and needs and focused on priorities as identified by communities themselves. Focus is on the restoration of public services through the rehabilitation and enhancement of damaged infrastructure, paired with community-based activities that help build resilience to recurring stressors.?
The project serves 25 hromadas in 12 oblasts and is being implemented across nine programmatic units of IOM Ukraine. The Consultant will play a pivotal role in shaping the project’s internal and external information management approach.
