Mission and objectives
The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programmes, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favouritism.
Context
UNICEF in the State of Palestine works to uphold the rights of children to access services and protection, from early childhood through to adolescence. Our objective is to ensure that every child in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, irrespective of background or circumstance, has an equal chance to fulfil their potential.
UNICEF aim to significantly increase mobilization of supplies, which requires a rapid scale-up in logistics operations on the ground. A robust information management system will be essential to enhance control and visibility over supply and logistics operations.
Under the direct supervision of the Chief of Supply and Logistics, and in close collaboration with supply and logistics operations in Gaza, this role supports the monitoring of performance measurements and management results within the UNICEF supply chain. This includes ensuring accurate and cohesive methodologies and calculations, actively monitoring key supply chain segments, and contributing to the provision of required statutory reports and statistics. The role also ensures data accuracy for supply and logistics results through the coordination of inputs, validation of information, and the use of consistent and documented working approaches and tools.
