About PIN Ukraine

People in Need (PIN) is a Czech Republic-based NGO globally working in the relief and development sectors. PIN has been active in Ukraine since early August 2014 and the humanitarian programme has been rapidly expanding since then. Currently, PIN is one of the major humanitarian and aspiring development actors in eastern Ukraine providing neutral and independent aid to conflict-affected people in Government and Non-Government Control areas (GCA and NGCA). The PIN representative office is located in Kyiv. PIN’s field office in Sloviansk functions as the main base for PIN’s operations in GCA and supporting office for the PIN field office in Stakhanov/Kadiivka in NGCA.

The total volume of the current programs is 6 million USD, funded by ECHO, BHA, UNICEF, EU, UHF, Czech MFA and other donors. PIN Ukraine follows its 2019-2022 strategy comprising emergency response and development pillars around Good Governance and Community Engagement, Social Protection and Inclusion, Sustainable Livelihoods and Environment. Under its emergency response, PIN is providing assistance to the conflict-affected populations within the WASH, Shelter/NFI, Food Security and Livelihoods and Protection (PSS) sectors. Where possible, PIN then seeks to achieve a smooth transition towards early and longer-term recovery and development efforts in the region focusing on the thematic pillars of its 2019-2022 strategy and under a Nexus agenda.


About the role

Under the strategic guidance of the Programme Director, you will be responsible for consolidating and expanding WASH programming from the current emergency response towards longer-term recovery and development projects and advocacy. At present, while WASH programming is not explicitly added as a standalone pillar of the development strategy for 2019-2022, it is included under PIN Ukraine’s Sustainable Livelihoods and Environment pillar. By facilitating an interface between existing WASH interventions and potential development programming, it is expected that the position will contribute to creating new opportunities for a revised strategy in 2023 with strong WASH ambitions.

More specifically, the role includes the following dimensions. You will work closely with the emergency response teams delivering WASH assistance in various forms to consolidate PIN’s track record and added value. You will network and identify strategic entry points for programming, building upon emergency assistance towards interventions on water governance, water safety planning, water quality/sanitation/wastewater management, environmental sustainability in WASH projects and/or other relevant domains. You will develop projects and actively work with the Programme Director and Grants and Reporting Manager to fundraise for new WASH interventions. You will closely cooperate with the Advocacy team to generate evidence and formulate key messages to realise the right to water in the context of eastern Ukraine. Additionally you are expected to contribute with WASH-related expertise to the good design and implementation of WASH activities under various projects. Throughout these dimensions you will work closely with PIN technical advisors to ensure the full integration of conflict-sensitive, pro-poor and participatory, gender-responsive and inclusive WASH agendas in the context of eastern Ukraine.
