Database Consultant
Closing date: 01 Feb 2018
Background
The Danish Refugee Council (DRC) is a humanitarian, non-governmental, non-profit organization founded in 1956 that works in more than 30 countries throughout the world. DRC fulfils its mandate by providing direct assistance to conflict-affected populations – refugees, internally displaced people (IDPs) and host communities in the conflict areas of the world; and by advocating on behalf of conflict-affected populations internationally, and in Denmark, on the basis of humanitarian principles and the Human Rights Declaration.
Objectives
In support of DRC’s livelihood objectives, DRC Jordan is requesting the submission of technical proposals for the design and development, including full testing, of an online job matching database. The database will be used primarily to assist DRC with its job placement programmatic objectives, enhancing DRC livelihood’s capacity and allow for DRC to access and place a larger number of Jordanian and Syrian beneficiaries into private sector employment. The databases primary function will be for internal use and allow DRC to store private sector employer information and vacancies alongside of beneficiary information. It will then automatically generate matches between the two based on beneficiary skills and experience and employer needs. This will allow for a DRC to more efficiently place a larger population of beneficiaries.
As part of the overall initiative, the consultant will conduct a scoping assessment of other databases and websites with similar functionality to uncover how DRC’s new database can best be used internally as well rolled out as a public function which allows job seekers and employers to post on their own, without duplicating the services of other INGOs.
The consultant will then develop an external module that is accessible to employers and job seekers based on the scoping assessment of what is already available and what gap DRC’s database can fill.
The consultancy objects are therefore as follows:
Initial scoping assessment of DRC programmatic needs in relation to the proposed database, as well as an assessment of other databases and websites with similar functionality to uncover possible paths for public use without duplication.
Development of internal job matching database
Development of external use of the database by both job seekers and employers as well as DRC partners, based on initial assessment of market needs.
Methodology
The consultant will develop the database in cooperation with DRC’s IM Field Coordinator, MEL Manager, and livelihoods team. The process will be as follows:
Desk research and preliminary assessment of DRC’s programmatic needs as well as other databases and websites with similar functionality to uncover gaps and uses for DRC’s database.
Design the multifunctional database architecture, subject to approval before the development phase, that allows for internal use of a job matching and employer tracking function for DRC livelihoods programs.
Design an external module of the website, based on the preliminary assessment that allows for public use by employers and for employers to post vacancies that are then automatically matched with DRC’s beneficiary list as well as allowing for job seekers to create profiles and search for vacancies.
Run an initial assessment to evaluate the technological (server capacity) and personnel requirements for the functionality of the online database.
Develop both the internal and external database, allowing for different levels of access for DRC’s super admin, DRC livelihoods staff, employers and job seekers.
Perform full testing on the website to ensure its functionality and capacity is met
Train DRC staff on use of the website, and relevant staff on admin and management of the website.
