    - Implement hygiene promotion initiatives appropriate to the context in close collaboration with engineering colleagues to ensure that technical and social aspects of water and sanitation programming are integrated.
    - Ensure that all work is carried out in a way that is sensitive to community needs and promotes the full and equal participation of women.

    - Draft interim and final narrative donor reports according to donor requirements.
    - Liaise directly with communities, elders and local authorities on hygiene issues, as well as other agencies operational in Lower and Middle Juba (particularly any carrying out similar activities) regularly to ensure coordination and effective implementation of activities.

    - Any other duties as required.

    In addition, the M&E Officer will be in charge of all monitoring and evaluation related activities including:
    - Design the M&E system (outputs, outcomes, impact with set of indicators and MoV) for the KELSA project to ensure that verifiable data is supplied, analyzed and reported.
    - Monitor KELSA project performance using results-oriented monitoring instruments to evaluate their achievement of results and performance targets.
    - Ensure the incorporation of environmental and gender issues in the analysis of the KELSA project performance.
    - Work in collaboration with consultants on carrying out both the baseline and external evaluation of the KELSA project
    - Undertake qualitative surveys to understand processes and impacts, and to determine the extent to which needs are being satisfied (which will be largely a participatory process; designing the necessary surveys, studies and interviews forms).
    - Provide M&E training to relevant local stakeholders if necessary; and
    - Submit monthly and quarterly monitoring reports to the Senior Project Manager and Emergency Program Coordinator highlighting areas of concern and progress.

    - Minimum 4 yrs relevant work experience in humanitarian context or complex emergency.
