Data Manager
Data Managers collect, store and process large humanitarian datasets. They ensure that accurate and reliable data is shared with other humanitarian actors. They also offer advice to partners on technical solutions.
During their assignment, Data Managers may furthermore design, develop and manage databases, spreadsheets and other data tools to collect and analyse humanitarian data. Ensuring that data privacy and security protocols are met is therefore one of the main priorities of Data Managers.
Data Managers are characterised by detail orientation and are able to deliver high-quality data management even under pressure. In addition, they have the ability to build teams and partnerships in order to gather and share data.
