Overview of position

El Miskin

Camp is a formal displacement site in Jere Local Government Area, Borno State,

established seven years ago supervised by the State Emergency Management Agency

(SEMA). The camp currently accommodates nearly 2,000 households. Although many

humanitarian organizations have withdrawn because of funding constraints, a

limited number continue to provide hygiene promotion, protection, camp

management and medical outreach services. However, this assistance remains

insufficient, and the camp continues to face serious gaps in access to clean

water and adequate sanitation and latrine facilities, as well as healthcare,

Education

and shelter services.

Under the

SD3R project, our client will rehabilitate and upgrade two existing boreholes,

construct and commission one new borehole, install twenty water points/tap

stands, and rehabilitate fifteen priority sanitation blocks. These works are intended

to improve access to safe water, strengthen sanitation conditions and reduce

public-health risks in the camp.

Supporting

El Miskin Camp directly contributes to SD3R objectives because the camp hosts

DDRR-reintegrated clients, returnees, internally displaced persons and members

of nearby host communities. Improving shared water and sanitation services will

reduce health and protection risks, ease pressure on vulnerable households, and

promote peaceful coexistence and sustainable reintegration amid declining

humanitarian assistance.

The WASH

works will be implemented from October to November 2026. Activities will

include final technical assessments and confirmation of the bills of

quantities, procurement and contractor mobilization, construction and

rehabilitation, inspection and testing, commissioning, and handover of the

completed facilities to camp management and the WASH committees.

Working

under the overall supervision of the DDRR Programme Manager and in close

technical coordination with the designated WASH focal point, the WASH Field

Assistant will support and supervise the day-to-day implementation of WASH

activities at El Miskin Camp. The incumbent will monitor contractors and site

workers, verify the quality and progress of works, promote compliance with

approved designs, bills of quantities, our client procedures and relevant

safety and WASH standards, engage camp stakeholders, and provide timely field

reports.

Role objectives

Support the day-to-day monitoring of WASH construction and rehabilitation activities at El Miskin Camp in accordance with approved workplans, schedules, technical specifications and instructions from the supervisor and designated WASH focal point.

Monitor progress of the rehabilitation of two boreholes, construction of one new borehole, installation of twenty water points/tap stands and rehabilitation of fifteen sanitation blocks, and report progress and site observations to the supervisor.

Conduct routine site checks and take basic measurements to support verification of quantities, materials and completed works against approved bills of quantities, drawings and specifications.

Assist in checking that construction materials delivered to the site correspond with approved

with a technical certificate/diploma in Civil Engineering, Water Resources, Environmental Engineering, Public Health Engineering, WASH, Construction or a related field, with relevant field experience; or

Completed university degree in Civil Engineering, Water Resources, Environmental Engineering, Public Health Engineering or a related field with relevant practical experience.
