**Duration**

3 months

**Organizational Context**:
The IFRC is led by its Secretary General, and has its headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. The headquarters is organized into three main divisions: (i) National Society Development and Operations Coordination; (ii) Global Relations, Humanitarian Diplomacy and Digitalization; and (iii) Management Policy, Strategy and Corporate Services.

The IFRC has five regional offices in Africa, Asia Pacific, Middle East and North Africa, Europe, and the Americas. The IFRC also has country cluster delegations and country delegations throughout the world. Together, the Geneva headquarters and the field structure (regional, cluster and country) comprise the IFRC Secretariat.

The Global Strategic Planning and Reporting Centre is part of the Strategic Planning Department, which is part of the Office of the Secretary General and aims to bring the IFRC planning process to the next level, with a greater focus on membership-wide planning, monitoring and reporting, high-level objectives and contextual analysis. It also supports the IFRC leadership to develop and foster new proposals and initiatives to promote the IFRC network.

The Strategic Planning Department oversees a country-level planning process called ‘Unified Planning’, bringing together ongoing emergency operations and longer-term work, and based on a Federation-wide planning approach. Federation-wide country plans are elaborated at country level in the four IFRC official languages, and with formats suiting the needs of the relevant National Society. Internal Federation-wide reporting on the country plans follows IFRC standard reporting timeframes, i.e. a mid-year report (January to June) and an annual report (January to December). These plans and reports are accessible to the IFRC network only. For donors and the general public, more standard and coherent versions of the plans and reports are produced centrally and contain the needed information to attract funding at country-level. In this connection, the Global Strategic Planning and Reporting Centre (also referred to as the Global Reporting Centre) was established in late 2023, in New Delhi, India to produce the **IFRC network country plans** and standard narrative **reports** against the plans.

This position is located in New Delhi, India.
