Job Description<\/strong>


We aim to make our programs a model for the highest global standards and to cultivate power and lasting change not just for our clients but for all people affected by humanitarian crises. To achieve that vision, the IRC\u2019s Technical Excellence (TE) group, located within the Crisis Response, Recovery and Development (CRRD) Department, provides technical assistance to IRC\u2019s country program staff and shares what we learn to influence policy and practice.

IRC\u2019s Technical Excellence team is comprised of five teams or sector \u201cUnits\u201d which have deep expertise in their respective fields: Education, Economic Wellbeing, Governance, Health, and Violence Prevention and Response, as well as three enabling teams which provide measurement, program quality improvement, and finance\/grant management support. Technical teams are also matrixed with a team that focuses on the quality and content of cross-sectoral programming in emergency responses.

IRC\u2019s Technical Excellence teams offer five core services to IRC country programs and the wider organization:
1. Program Design: We support country and regional teams to design state of the art programming, incorporating the best available evidence, cost data, and expertise of what has worked elsewhere, with the knowledge that country teams, partner organizations and our clients bring to the table.
2. Quality Assurance: We partner with our measurement teams to design and drive the use of indicators to measure progress towards outcomes; we partner with regional and country teams to review program delivery progress and help address implementation challenges and adapt interventions to changed circumstances.
3. Business Development: We partner within and outside the IRC to design winning bids and identify winning consortia; we deploy technical expertise in public events and private meetings to position IRC as a partner of choice.
4. Research & Learning: We partner with our research lab to design cutting edge research to fill evidence gaps, and with country teams to learn from implementation such that we continuously improve our future design and delivery.
5. External Influence: We showcase the IRC\u2019s programs, technical insights and learning in order to influence and improve the humanitarian sector\u2019s policy and practice.

The Governance Technical Unit amplifies the voices of people impacted by conflict and crisis, including the climate crisis. We empower people to control their future by championing their right to influence issues and shape systems that affect their cities, towns, and communities.
To achieve this, we:
1. Empower people to influence and participate in decisions that affect their lives,
2. Influence national\/local service delivery systems to provide effective and responsive services, and
3. Promote collaboration between individuals, groups, and leaders to promote alignment and resolve differences peacefully.
