Country Representative for Ukraine, based in Kyiv
Country: Ukraine Organization: IMPACT Initiatives Closing date: 6 Nov 2025 WHAT IS IMPACT INITIATIVES ? OUR AIM: IMPACT aims to shape practices and influence policies in humanitarian and development settings, to positively impact the lives of people and their communities. Created in 2010, IMPACT is a Geneva-based NGO and the largest independent data provider in contexts of crisis. We aim to support a range of stakeholders in making better, more informed decisions in humanitarian, stabilisation, and development settings. We believe that a key pathway to better planning and decision making is direct engagement with local communities. How do we work? IMPACT takes an initiative-based approach to structuring our programming. Each initiative has a specific aim, operational model, and portfolio of solutions. REACH strengthens evidence-based humanitarian decision-making through efficient data collection, management, and analysis - before, during, and after an emergency. PANDA improves the impact of humanitarian and development interventions through programme design, assessments, and monitoring & evaluation. AGORA promotes localised and multi-sectoral aid action in support of the recovery and stabilisation of crisis-affected communities, in partnership with local stakeholders Through our global team of research specialists, on average IMPACT publishes more than 1,700 information products on a yearly basis. IMPACT was launched in 2010, at the initiative of Acted, an international NGO whose headquarters are based in Paris. The two organizations have a strong complementarity formalized in a global partnership, which allows IMPACT to benefit from Acted’s operational support in countries of intervention. We are currently looking for a Country Representative to lead our Ukraine country office. Position: Country Representative Contract duration: 24 months Start Date: 13 January 2026 Location: Kyiv, Ukraine Application Deadline: Applications close on 30 November 2025, but early applications are encouraged and will be processed as they are received. COUNTRY OVERVIEW IMPACT has been active in Ukraine since 2015, working primarily in government controlled and non-government-controlled areas of Donetsk and Luhansk. Following the full-scale invasion in February 2022, IMPACT significantly scaled-up its activities, operating across the whole country to support evidence-based planning and prioritization. IMPACT Ukraine’s research portfolios are structured across four strategic objectives: Providing timely and relevant data and analysis to inform decision-making in response to new and evolving information needs. Ensuring systematic and independent tracking of humanitarian needs and vulnerabilities to inform effective prioritization, accountability to affected populations, and coordination. Making information and analysis available to support sustainable and community-focused planning, policy, and programming in response to longer-term challenges associated with the conflict. Strengthening the capacity of civil society and authorities to use data to collaborate and respond sustainably to current and future needs.
