WFP seeks candidates of the highest integrity and professionalism who share our humanitarian principles.
Selection of staff is made on a competitive basis, and we are committed to promoting diversity and gender balance.
ABOUT WFPThe United Nations World Food Programme 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.
ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXTThese jobs are found in WFP Ethiopia, Mekele Sub Office. We are seeking to fill a position of Protection Officer to work with field colleagues to ensure that WFP implements an operation which aligns with WFP’s humanitarian principles and its obligation to do no harm.
JOB PURPOSEWith a direct reporting line to the Head of Programme, the Protection Officer will be responsible for integrating protection and conflict sensitive standards into WFP’s emergency response in Tigray. Within corporate frameworks and in support of the country office protection team, the Protection Officer will coordinate with relevant units and actors to:
 i. Translate WFP Protection and Accountability Policy and the conflict sensitive minimum standards into practice in the Tigray emergency response, ii. Systematise the collection, management, and mixed-method analysis of protection relevant data (quantitative & qualitative) to identify risks linked to food and nutrition insecurity and interventions, iii. Develop and/or adapt WFP assessment, planning, measurement and training methods, guidance and tools to mitigate these risks through and within WFP’s interventions, by identifying, implementing and monitoring mitigation measures for each identified risk. Within an emergency setting, WFP requires a Protection Officer experienced in building an evidence base to inform programmatic decision-making and identify areas requiring targeted support; coordinating with relevant stakeholders internally and externally; and working with communities and community influencers to build inclusive systems to establish protection-related approaches, ensuring community access to and acceptance of safe, appropriate and relevant interventions.
