Description

IMPACT Initiatives is a humanitarian think-and-do tank based in Geneva, Switzerland. The organization aims to support evidence-based decision-making for humanitarian and development programming through data collection, analysis, and dissemination. IMPACT is the implementing partner of REACH, a multi-agency initiative created in 2010 that supports humanitarian actors to improve planning and decision-making through in-depth, reliable information and analysis.

All of IMPACT’s programs are implemented in support of humanitarian coordination structures. IMPACT’s team comprises specialists in data collection, management, and analysis, as well as experts in humanitarian response, GIS, and remote sensing.

Mission

IMPACT is seeking multiple (Senior) Analysts to work with our teams across acute humanitarian crises. These roles will lead to a new flagship analytical output that provides a concise, actionable understanding of acute humanitarian needs across geographies and population groups within a crisis. At a time when the humanitarian sector is facing unprecedented challenges, these roles will play a pivotal function in ensuring increasingly scarce aid is prioritised according to need.  
 
The (Senior) Analyst role at IMPACT is a unique opportunity to produce work that will directly influence humanitarian prioritisation decisions, including—but not limited to—the Humanitarian Programme Cycle (HPC), HNRPs, and donor resource allocation. Analysts will review and synthesised data, conduct structured analysis using IMPACT’s global analytical guidance, and produce a short, high-impact external brief, working closely with GIS, data, and design colleagues to incorporate visual elements where relevant. These roles would suit technical staff who enjoy working with large amounts of data, but who are able to situate the technical work they do in the bigger picture to achieve humanitarian impact.
