Site Supervisor Assistant (Staryi Sambir)

The IOM Mission in Ukraine was established in 1996. In line with IOM’s global strategy, IOM Ukraine aims at advancing the understanding of the opportunities and challenges of migration in the Ukrainian context. The IOM Mission in Ukraine provides assistance to internally displaced persons (IDPs) and conflict-affected people, fights trafficking in human beings, assists the Government in dealing with irregular migration, improving its migration management system, and creating migrant-inclusive health practices and policies. IOM supports the development of comprehensive and evidence-based migration policies and legislation in line with international norms and builds government’s capacity in harnessing the development potential of migration, among others, by creating incentives for migrants’ remittances investment and offering evidence-based policy advice to enhance labour migration management. During 24 years of presence in Ukraine, IOM has assisted over half a million migrants (Ukrainians and other nationalities), IDPs, potential migrants, victims of trafficking and other vulnerable groups, directly or through its project partners.

Within this portfolio, IOM’s Housing Programme contributes to durable solutions by expanding access to safe, affordable and energy-efficient housing for internally displaced persons (IDPs) and other vulnerable groups, aligned with the Government of Ukraine priorities and municipal recovery plans. IOM’s Housing Programme implements a diverse pipeline of housing interventions such as rehabilitation of existing buildings, repairs of conflict-damaged residential stock, new construction, and innovative prefabricated/modular solutions. Under the overall supervision of the Chief of Mission and the Programme Coordinator (Housing & WASH), and the direct supervision of the National Project Officer (Senior Engineer), the UN Volunteer will support the monitoring of housing and infrastructure projects, repairs, and rehabilitations of damaged buildings, in coordination with relevant colleagues, partners and municipalities.
