These country offices aim to assist roughly one-third of all of WFP’s beneficiaries (approx. 30 million) in some of the most critical humanitarian emergencies of our time. RBC is also active in the ‘Changing Lives’ side of WFP’s mandate, helping national governments and local communities improve nutrition, livelihoods, school feeding, social protection, climate and disaster risk reduction and other programmes that build resilience and support development.

**BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT**:
As the largest humanitarian agency in the world, WFP is well-known for its ability to respond to crises and quickly deliver assistance to people in need at scale. However, WFP must also ensure that its programmes, first and foremost, do not inadvertently cause harm to affected populations while contributing to their safety and security, dignity, inclusive participation and empowerment. Recognising this, WFP has made a number of corporate commitments related to humanitarian protection, accountability to affected populations (AAP), disability inclusion, gender equality and women empowerment (GEWE), protection against sexual exploitation and abuse (PSEA), personal data protection and privacy (PDPP), conflict sensitivity and contributions to peace (CS/CtP), environmental and social safeguards (ESS).
Over the past few years, RBC has responded to an unprecedented level of emergencies - caused or exacerbated by the compunding effects of conflicts, displacement, climate change, Covid 19 and the global food crisis - while maintaining ongoing operations. Considering the scale and nature of WFP operations across the RBC region, which covers 15 country offices in North Africa, Middle East and Eastern Europe, RBC is upscaling its support to all operations and programmes for the operationalization of corporate cross-cutting commitments.
The incumbent will be the Regional Protection Adviser, and the Regional PSEA Focal Point. S/he will be directly responsible for the direct supervision, leadership and coordination of an integrated Cross-cutting Team in RBC that includes one Protection and AAP Advisor, one Gender Advisor, one Data Protection Advisor and one ESS Advisor. S/he will also be expected to coordinate closely with other RBC colleagues who work on other cross-cutting themes, especially conflict-sensitivity and youth engagement. The position will be based in the Humanitarian and Transition Unit/Programme Division and will be reporting directly to the Regional Head of Humanitarian and Transition Unit and the Regional Head of Programmes.
**KEY ACCOUNTABILITIES (not all-inclusive)**:
- **MANAGEMENT**:Directly supervise the Regional Gender, AAP, Data Protection and ESS Advisors and act as RBC's PSEA focal point.
- **EXTERNAL COORDINATION**:Represent RBC vis-à-vis counterparts in headquarters and in relevant interagengy fora.
- **TECHNICAL GUIDANCE**:Ensu
