Coordination

• Contribute to organisational risk registers and management dashboards, and provide regular strategic updates to senior management and the Board as required.
• Coordinate and share information with security counterparts in peer organizations, NGO fora, and relevant UN and humanitarian coordination mechanisms, representing Geneva Call’s perspectives and ensuring GC benefits from collective analysis and good practice.
• Advise senior management on the interface between humanitarian principles, access, and security risk management, ensuring all staff understand GC’s mission, code of conduct, and how these shape day‑to‑day security behaviour, negotiation, and acceptance strategies.
• In close collaboration with IT, develop and maintain operational policies and procedures for digital and information security (secure communications, data protection, safe use of platforms and devices), ensuring alignment with the wider SRM framework and emerging threats. Promote the use of appropriate technology and data for smarter, more anticipatory security decision‑making.
