Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You will lead the collection, verification, and mapping of humanitarian services across Kampala, ensuring refugees and vulnerable populations can access critical aid. Daily tasks include field visits to partner organisations, data entry into IRC’s digital platforms, and producing clear service directories that frontline teams use in real-time.
Key skills to highlight
Strong analytical thinking for cross-checking service data and spotting gaps. Proficiency in mobile data collection tools (e.g., Kobo Toolbox, ODK) and Excel. Proven ability to build trust with community leaders and government offices in Kampala. Experience with refugee or urban displacement contexts is a major plus.
Taf4All CV tip
Replace generic “data entry” with a concrete example: e.g., “Mapped 80+ health and legal services across 3 Kampala divisions using Kobo Toolbox, achieving 95% verification rate within 2-week deadlines.” This shows you understand the role’s field reality.
Before you apply
IRC never charges fees for applications or interviews. Verify any email asking for money or personal bank details—report to report@rescue.org. Only apply via IRC’s official careers portal or trusted job boards.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready
ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
