<h4>Context and environment</h4>
<p>Basrah Oil Company (BOC) is undertaking the Seawater Treatment Facilities (STF) project to provide treated seawater to the oil fields in southern Iraq (for injection). The STF will be located on the west side of the Khor Al Zubair, upstream of the port of Umm Qasr and will have the following key components:</p>
<ul>
<li>Site development and non-process facilities.</li>
<li>Ancillaries and buildings.</li>
<li>Seawater intake and outfall structures.</li>
<li>Material off-loading facility.</li>
<li>Seawater clarification, filtration and deoxygenating processes.</li>
<li>Chemical addition systems.</li>
<li>Shipping pumps.</li>
<li>Power generation.</li>
<li>Utilities.</li>
</ul>
<p>FEED was completed (June 2016) with Phase 1 capacity of 7.5 million barrels of water per day (MMBWPD) of treated seawater, with a subsequent Phase 2 of 5 MMBWPD for a total buildout capacity of 12.5 MMBWPD. The project was placed on hold upon the completion of FEED.</p>
<p>In 2018 BOC launched a call for tender on the FEED, but instructed bidders to reduce capacity to 5.0 MMBWPD, with provision for a future addition of 2.5 MMBWPD for a total build-out phase of 7.5 MMBWPD.</p>

<h4>Context and environment</h4>
<p>Basrah Oil Company (BOC) is undertaking the Seawater Treatment Facilities (STF) project to provide treated seawater to the oil fields in southern Iraq (for injection). The STF will be located on the west side of the Khor Al Zubair, upstream of the port of Umm Qasr and will have the following key components:</p>
<ul>
<li>Site development and non-process facilities.</li>
<li>Ancillaries and buildings.</li>
<li>Seawater intake and outfall structures.</li>
<li>Material off-loading facility.</li>

<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles & Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p> International Organization for Migration Project Context and Scope The project titled Inclusive Stabilization Partnerships for Reintegration and Empowerment (INSPIRE) is a five-year programme (July 2026 June 2031) funded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (MFA) and implemented by the International Organization for Migration (IOM). INSPIRE will operate in Ninewa, Anbar, and Salah al-Din Governorates, with national-level engagement in Baghdad. The project aims to address key barriers faced by vulnerable internally displaced persons (IDPs), returnees (including Iraqi individuals from northeast Syria), and host community members in accessing basic services, civil documentation, and durable solutions. It operates across three interconnected levels: individual, community, and systemic, organized under three outcomes: Outcome 1: Improved access to basic services and durable solutions pathways for vulnerable displaced populations Outcome 2: More resilient and cohesive communities in areas of high return, with empowered local civil society structures Outcome 3: Enhanced national and local government capacity to plan, coordinate, and deliver services to Iraqi citizens Inception Phase Recognizing Iraq's evolving context, with shifting return and displacement patterns, changing funding priorities, and significant differences across governorates and districts - INSPIRE will begin with a three-month inception phase. This phase is critical to ensure that the five-year programme is evidence-based, context-sensitive, and strategically targeted from the outset. The Inception Phase will produce one core output: the Inception Report. The Report will contain: A detailed Year 1 Intervention Plan, identifying priority locations and beneficiary groups based on current conditions; and A five-year Strategic Impact Monitoring Framework, aligned with INSPIRE's Results Matrix and Theory of Change. The Inception Report will integrate multiple data sources, including: IOM Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) data; funding and intervention mapping to identify gaps where INSPIRE can add value without duplication; field consultations with local authorities, community leaders, and potential beneficiaries; and interviews with Government of Iraq (GoI) counterparts, local CSOs, UN agencies, and international partners. The Inception Phase will conclude with a Validation Workshop convening the Government of the Netherlands, relevant Iraqi ministries, the UN Resident Coordinator's Office (RCO), and key partners to finalize the Year 1 workplan and agree on coordination structures, including annual revision mechanisms. The INSPIRE inception phase requires specialized expertise in programme design, durable solutions programming, stakeholder consultation methodologies, conflict-sensitive analysis, and strategic results framework development. Given the time-bound nature of the inception phase and the need for independent technical expertise to support the development of the Inception Report and associated strategic frameworks, these services cannot be fully met through existing project staffing resources during the inception period. Therefore, IOM seeks to engage a consultant to provide targeted technical advisory support for this assignment. Organizational Department / Unit to which the Consultant is contributing Under overall guidance of the Chief of Mission (CoM), and the direct supervision of the Senior Programme Coordinator in close coordination with the involved IOM teams. The consultancy is open to international consultants and will be primarily remote. Field missions to Iraq will be required for stakeholder consultations, fieldwork, and facilitation of the Validation Workshop. Mission timing and locations will be agreed with the IOM Senior Programme Coordinator based on operational needs and security considerations. Scope of Work The consultant will provide senior-level technical advisory support and facilitate the analytical and consultative process for the development of the INSPIRE Inception Report and associated strategic frameworks. The consultant will provide advisory services only and will not have decision-making, supervisory, or representational authority on behalf of IOM The consultant's responsibilities include: Conducting a comprehensive desk review of relevant secondary data sources, including IOM DTM reports, existing assessments (legal, protection, MHPSS, livelihoods), prior IOM project documentation, and national/UN strategic frameworks (UNSDCF, National Plan to End Displacement, Yazidi Survivors Law, INAP III) Developing and implementing a stakeholder consultation methodology, including Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) and focus group discussions, with GoI counterparts (federal and KRG), local CSOs, UN agencies, international partners, community leaders, and affected populations across Ninewa, Anbar, and Salah al-Din Conducting a funding and intervention mapping exercise to identify ongoing and planned interventions in target areas, assess complementarity, and identify gaps where INSPIRE can add value Analysing IOM DTM and other displacement data to ensure targeting reflects current displacement and return dynamics Development of a strategic Year 1 Intervention Plan, including prioritized locations, target beneficiary groups, preliminary activity plans, and indicative resource allocation, in coordination with the IOM programme and MEAL teams Developing a five-year Strategic Impact Monitoring Framework aligned with the INSPIRE Results Matrix, Theory of Change, and SRoL/DSH indicators Supporting the facilitation, preparation and documentation of the Validation Workshop with the Government of the Netherlands, Iraqi ministries, UNRCO, and key partners Incorporating stakeholder feedback and finalizing the Inception Report for submission and publication </p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph"></p><ul><li>Advanced university degree (Master's or equivalent) in Political Science, International Development, Humanitarian Affairs, Conflict Studies, Sociology, Migration Studies, or a related field.

Operational Context:<br>After more than three decades of political turmoil and armed conflict that profoundly affected its population, Iraq is gradually emerging into a period of relative stability. The country is making progress towards sustainable development, including efforts to resolve protracted displacement. Iraq continues to host significant numbers of refugees and asylum-seekers and pursues an inclusive policy that enables their access to national services. Despite these advances, substantial humanitarian and development needs persist.<br>As of the end of 2025, Iraq generously hosts more than 348,600 refugees and asylum-seekers, of whom 88 per cent are Syrian nationals. Approximately 80 per cent of this population resides in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI). While most refugees and asylum-seekers live in urban and peri-urban areas, around 30 per cent continue to reside in nine refugee camps nationwide. Iraq also continues to have large numbers of internally displaced people (IDPs), including some 102,000 IDPs who live in IDP camps. <br>In this evolving context, UNHCR in Iraq has transitioned from a humanitarian response to an approach that increasingly supports development-oriented solutions. UNHCR works closely with the Government of Iraq and partners to support refugees and asylum-seekers in accessing protection, public services such as education and healthcare, and economic opportunities, while also advancing durable solutions for both refugees and IDPs. <br>Accordingly, UNHCR’s Multi-Year Strategy (2025–2029) envisions that forcibly displaced populations in Iraq will have enhanced access to legal protection, inclusive and quality basic and protection services within national systems and improved economic opportunities.<br>b. Desired Candidate Profile:<br>- Strong interpersonal and communication skills are essential for this role, as the incumbent will be expected to build trust and maintain effective relationships with refugee communities, often in complex and sensitive environments.<br>- Demonstrated experience in engaging with a wide range of stakeholders, including humanitarian/development partners, government authorities, and community representatives is crucial to ensure coordinated and inclusive protection responses.<br>- The ability to monitor, assess, and interpret protection trends and risks is vital. The incumbent should be capable of synthesizing complex information and translating it into concise reports and actionable recommendations.
