Standard Job Description

Senior DIMA Coordinator

Organizational Setting and Work Relationships

The UNHCR Data Transformation Strategy 2020-2025 envisions that by 2025 UNHCR becomes a trusted leader on data and information related to refugees and other persons of concern, thereby enabling actions to protect and to empower persons of concern. The Strategy stipulates investing in four complementary priority areas: data management and governance; information systems; capacities and skill development; and culture for evidence-informed decision-making. The strategy envisages data and information management functions in UNHCR carried out in a complementary and inter-linked manner between Headquarters Divisions and Services, Regional Bureaux, country operations and key external partners, including persons of concern.

An important element is the establishment of Data, Identity Management and Analysis (DIMA) units in all Regional Bureaux and potentially corresponding units in country operations, led by a senior staff to ensure that UNHCR has a capacity to produce, in line with global standards, quality data, information products, conduct region-level analysis, guide registration and identity management, and advise on responsible and effective data use at country- and regional-levels.
The DIMA position is an integral part of the Regional Bureau, with line management provided by the Regional Director (or delegated to senior managers), and functional lines with the data service in Headquarters and relevant Divisions. This will be the basis for strengthened collaboration with other relevant entities in UNHCR, and externally with UN agencies, humanitarian and development partners, governments, private sector and NGOs.

Senior DIMA Coordinator oversees implementation of UNHCR data-related strategies, policies and standards for information management, statistics, registration and identity management in the respective region or country operation. In close coordination with the other global services and within the Bureaux, Senior DIMA Coordinator also monitors and oversees, as relevant, the development of systems and processes for operational data within their areas of responsibility. Furthermore, the incumbent provides guidance and technical support to other stakeholders, including country offices and partners, on robust and efficient data design, collection, processing, sharing, analysis, dissemination, data storage and archiving methodologies. Senior DIMA Coordinator acts as a service provider in regards to data and information management for operations and ensures that UNHCR is able to fulfill its global commitments to the Inter Agency response in IDP situations. In IDP situations, DIMA provides data, statistics and information management support to the three UNHCR led Clusters.

DIMA is a client-oriented, multi-sectoral service that has integrated internal coordination with all Bureaux or Country units, particularly with the Protection Coordination Pillar.
Within the Bureau or country office, Senior DIMA Coordinator acts as an advisor to senior management and governance mechanisms/bodies on data management matters, including resource allocation and partnerships. For corporate operational systems, Senior DIMA Coordinator has a delegated role to undertake business analysis for regional- or country-level tools where needed, coordinate the prioritization of requirements for meeting regional or country specific systems development to be further reviewed and approved for implementation at the global level.

Regional DIMA teams leverage innovations from country operations and share best practices across the region and elevate globally relevant innovations to the attention of other regional DIMA Coordinators as well as Data Service at Headquarters.
Under the leadership of the Regional Bureau Director (or delegated to senior managers), the Senior Data, Identity Management and Analysis (DIMA) Coordinator leads the DIMA activities. S/He oversees the DIMA¿s overall activities, including managing staff with responsibilities for information management, statistics, analysis, registration and identity management including digital identity and operational data management. The DIMA Coordinator advises and guides on the establishment of data governance structures with the Regional Bureau or country operation.

The Senior DIMA Coordinator identifies, leads and implements country and regional capacity development plans to improve data literacy vertically and horizontally. Furthermore, by building strong, coordinated, inter-related and transparent information systems as relevant to the region and/or country, the Senior DIMA Coordinator contributes to building knowledge within the Bureau and country operations.

The grade level of the positions with this role can be P4 or P5 depending on the number of the persons of concern under the Area of Responsibility (AoR) as well as the structure and location of the Bureau in which the position operates.

They do so within their delegated authorities, in line with the regulatory framework of UNHCR which includes the UN Charter, UN Staff Regulations and Rules, UNHCR Policies and Administrative Instructions as well as relevant accountability frameworks. In addition, staff members are required to discharge their responsibilities in a manner consistent with the core, functional, cross-functional and managerial competencies and UNHCR¿s core values of professionalism, integrity and respect for diversity.
