BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE POSITION:

About WFP:
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes. Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

To learn more about WFP, visit our website and follow us on social media to keep up with our latest news: LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.

The World Food Programme has developed and is continuing to enhance and maintain a set of digital solutions to manage:
• the identities and entitlements of its beneficiaries,
• the operational parameters of the programmes that transfer benefits to them, and
• the assurances and insights to ensure related risks are properly managed,
• the collection and storage of data for questionnaires and surveys,
as well as multiple solutions to manage, analyze, and visualize data.

What will you do in this position?
SCOPE is WFP’s beneficiary and transfers management platform that supports the WFP programme intervention cycle from a technical perspective. The SCOPE platform is a web-based application used for beneficiary registration, intervention setup, distribution planning, transfer, and distribution reporting. SCOPE is intended and continuously developed and improved to fully support all WFP transfer modalities: cash, voucher, and in-kind, for a variety of project activities. WFP also plans to develop/use a broader set of tools and provide related services beyond the current SCOPE capabilities.

To support SCOPE users in their ability to maximize the SCOPE platform, there is a dedicated Service Support function servicing the globe. The SCOPE Service Support (Operations) team is based in Nairobi, Kenya with an extended presence in each of WFP’s Regional Bureaux. The team provides technical support to over 3,000 WFP users in 60 Country Offices (CO) as well as to external users.

The staff from the Country Offices of the Western Africa region, as well as those from the Regional Bureau (RB), need support in several digital solutions used to collect, manage, store, and analyze beneficiary data or provide services to beneficiaries. Such tools include MoDA, our implementation of ODK, as well as School Connect, a platform to manage school students' information, and others.

To ensure the effective operation of SCOPE and of the other digital tools of WFP, there are Regional Support positions at the Regional Bureau, that work in concert with the SCOPE Service Support team in Nairobi, predominantly, and with the support teams corresponding to the other digital solutions, providing technical support as well as training and orientation to the RB and COs staff.
