Organizational Context and Scope
Under the overall supervision of the Chief of Mission and the direct supervision of the Senior Emergency Coordinator, the Shelter, Land and Site Coordination (SLSC) Sector Coordinator will be responsible for coordinating the Shelter, Land and Site Coordination (SLSC) Cluster at both national and sub-national levels, ensuring effective, integrated and protection-centered service delivery through strengthened partner coordination, evidence-based planning and decision-making, and robust monitoring, reporting, advocacy, and accountability mechanisms in support of the humanitarian response for the Shelter, Housing, Land and Property (HLP), and Site Coordination functions of the merged cluster.

Building on the Cluster's existing coordination architecture and partner engagement, the incumbent will support the transition toward a unified sector model that strengthens operational coherence, improves service referrals, and reinforces accountability to affected populations.
