CARE
is scaling up response efforts within the Middle East as it is obvious
that there will be a clear humanitarian need in the years to come both
inside Syria – depending on risk parameters – and in neighboring
countries.
The Safety and Security Manager is responsible for maintaining oversight of safety and security policy and strategy, developing contextual analysis, building capacity within the Country Office and Hub office safety and security teams, and developing and implementing context appropriate CARE safety protocols and procedures across CARE’s field and program locations as they relate to CARE’S Syrian emergency response. This position is based in Amman (Jordan), with a significant portion of time spent visiting field locations and providing support to CARE’s Emergency Response Team located in programmatic hubs in neighboring countries to Syria.
The position is detached from the CSU to provide direct support to the CARE (Syria) country office, and will support the WoS Country Director, the Hub Directors, the Regional Security Manager and CARE’s Safety and Security Unit (CSU) in maintaining oversight for operations inside Syria. The focus will be on a connected security strategy that works through four linked countries within the MENA region
Whilst supporting the overarching mission objective of the CSU – providing the safest possible working environments for CARE staff – S/He will work closely with staff, partners, communities and peers to enhance the capacity of the four Hub offices, providing routine and timely analysis and incident reports to the Country Director and Regional Security Manager, deploying as needed in support of Country Office teams, and developing regionally consistent strategies for the management of safety and security.
All operational security matters will remain the responsibility of the supporting Country Offices (in which CARE Syria has established programmatic hub), and through them to the relevant CARE Lead Member.
Key to the success of this post will be the Safety and Security Manager’s ability to be able to effectively coordinate across the various stakeholders involved in the emergency response and provide support to the areas it is most needed. One of the key challenges in this operating environment is information; high-quality and timely analysis – complete with actionable advice and recommendations – is a core facet of this role. The post-holder is also expected to work closely with implementing partners and be able to solve problems at a local level and demonstrate the ability to produce effective strategies and provide technical advice.
