Save the Children is the world's leading independent organisation for children. We work in 120 countries. We save children's lives; we fight for their rights; we help them fulfil their potential. We work together, with our partners, to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives. We have over two million supporters worldwide and raised 1.9 billion dollars last year to reach more children than ever before, through programmes in health, nutrition, education, protection and child rights, also in times of humanitarian crises. Following a major transition, our international programmes are now delivered through a merged operation with 15,000 staff, managed through seven regional hubs and reporting to a relatively small, central office.

• Liaise with field offices to ensure that appropriate humanitarian context data is collected at a local level and shared regularly to support risk monitoring and analysis.
• Liaise with other humanitarian agencies and with relevant government actors, and regularly check resource repositories (e.g. reliefweb.int, data.humdata.org etc) to access humanitarian datasets and other resources to support humanitarian analysis. 
• Compile existing disaggregated (age/gender) data on the needs of children, marginalised and deprived groups and the state of the humanitarian response / aid system in country to inform programmatic decisions.
• Identify data gaps (quality of datasets, geographic disparities, sensitivities, etc.) to assist Save the Children and partners in intentional primary data collection and in advocating for better humanitarian data.
• Maintain up-to-date data, information and resources and ensure data and evidence is easily available and accessible at Country Office level for the response team, and for global purposes (e.g., on global Knowledge Management platforms)
• Humanitarian Analysis, Presentation & Learning:
• Monitor contextual developments (social, political, economic) and map key crisis drivers (deteriorating factors, structural inequalities, response trends, access issues etc.) at local, national, and sub-regional level to contextualize humanitarian needs assessments and plans.
• Work closely with response / humanitarian leadership by providing evidence and analysis to inform upcoming key decisions.
• Share regular analyses of the most relevant information (humanitarian context) in a concise and engaging way, focusing on contextual dynamics of relevance to children (as being impacted by as well as agents in crisis), including through production of maps and infographics.
