We are currently looking for a Data Officer to support our team in occupied Palestinian territory (oPt):
Following the attacks on 7 October 2023, and Israel’s subsequent aerial and ground operations in the Gaza Strip, the humanitarian situation in the occupied Palestinian territories (oPt) has deteriorated markedly. The 2.2 million residents of the Gaza Strip are facing severe humanitarian challenges, with urgent needs that must be addressed to avert further loss of life. Additionally, the hostilities in Gaza have heightened tensions in the West Bank, impacting freedom of movement, livelihoods, and the broader humanitarian context.
Against this backdrop, IMPACT Initiatives is planning a range of research activities to support an evidence and needs-based humanitarian response. In previous years, IMPACT Initiatives has facilitated inter-agency Multi-Sector Needs Assessments (MSNA) as well as sector-specific research in the oPt.
Under the management of the IMPACT Data Specialist (DS), the Data Officer (DO) is responsible for the production of IMPACT’s analysis products in oPt. The ideal candidate would be eager to work within a dynamic and motivated team, will have a strong data management background, and a focus on using critical thinking to solve data problems in complex environments.
The Data Officer will be responsible for the production of analysis products, including the preparation of research design, data analysis plans, data collection tools, data cleaning scripts and processes, analysis scripts, analysis outputs and (as relevant) production of web maps and information management systems.
