Project Background:
The Jordan Himaya project is a USAID-funded activity that aims to enhance access to and quality of essential services and protection for survivors of gender-based violence (GBV) in Jordan. The project has two outcomes: 1) survivor-centered institutional capacity improved, and 2) legislative frameworks for protecting survivors and responding to violence strengthened. To achieve these outcomes, the project will apply a survivor-centered systems-strengthening approach to improve prevention, response, and protection services, and to support the development and implementation of survivor-centered legislation and policies. The project will work with and through local partners, including a Jordanian partner consortium and an all-Jordanian key personnel team, to leverage their expertise and ensure the sustainability and impact of the project interventions. Outcome 1 will inform research, advocacy, and policy changes in Outcome 2, while reforms supported under Outcome 2 will be implemented and enforced by institutions and service providers that have gained stronger capacity under Outcome 1.
General Objective:
The IT Systems Specialist will play a pivotal role in the Himaya project, providing comprehensive IT support and strategic technological insights. This position involves leveraging the Institutional Support Fund (ISF) to procure targeted equipment, systems, and tools, ensuring robust material support to the Government of Jordan (GOJ) stakeholders. The IT Specialist will collaborate with the Deputy Chief of Party and the technical team to conduct needs assessments and stakeholder consultations, identifying material needs and guaranteeing that ISF interventions are results-driven.
In partnership with ConsultUs, the IT Specialist will undertake a mapping exercise to standardize case management and establish a unified Information Management System (IMS). This initiative aims to enhance existing administrative systems, align case management processes, and explore the creation of a shared, secure database for evidence-based decision-making. The IT Specialist will apply survivor-centered methods to understand processes and access gaps from the survivors’ perspective.
The IT Specialist will also contribute to Himaya’s cross-sectoral Integrated Results (IRs) by providing niche technical and management expertise. Working under the Institutional Capacity Lead, the IT Specialist will engage with national and sub-national counterparts to embed survivor-centered assistance at the institutional level and support Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and Community-Based Organizations (CBOs) through grants, ensuring the quality delivery of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) services in target hot spots.
