Desired Candidate Profile
Desired Candidate Profile:
The incumbent will work in a dynamic environment with recurrent security incidents. The function requires some field missions to areas subjected to military action. The successful candidate should be well versed in the programmes and tools used by UNHCR and should be able to produce tailored information products to support the office’s outreach with local authorities and donors. H/she should have the skills to use the data received to provide analysis on trends and gaps to support prioritization of interventions.

Operational Context:
The war in Ukraine has led to extensive suffering and displacement. By 2024, 14.6 million people need humanitarian assistance, with 3.7 million internally displaced and 6 million refugees across Europe, mainly women and children. The destruction of civilian infrastructure, especially the energy sector, has severely disrupted access to essential services like electricity, water, heating, healthcare, education, and social protection. Humanitarian access remains challenging, particularly in areas under temporary Russian control, necessitating a deep understanding of protection needs and the implementation of community-based approaches in volatile areas. Odesa, Mykolaiv, and Kherson have faced varying conflict levels due to their proximity to conflict zones, resulting in significant displacement and complex security environments. Military operations and checkpoints are common, affecting movement and access. Odesa Oblast: As a strategic port city, Odesa has seen influxes of displaced persons. The urban environment presents unique challenges in shelter and integration, requiring effective coordination with local authorities and communities. Mykolaiv Oblast: Proximity to conflict zones makes Mykolaiv critical for humanitarian intervention, facing infrastructure damage and access issues. Efforts focus on immediate relief and long-term recovery support. Kherson Oblast: Kherson experiences significant displacement and security concerns. Disruption to its agricultural base affects food security, with humanitarian responses providing emergency aid and supporting agricultural recovery.
