The Forensic Expert for Data & Analytics plays a key role in supporting the ICRC’s efforts to clarify the fate and whereabouts of persons who went missing in connection with the 1990s and the 2008 armed conflicts in Georgia.
The position ensures that all data generated through search, excavations, exhumations and identification processes is accurately managed, consolidated, and analysed to support effective case management and maximise case resolution to ultimately provide answers to the families of missing persons.
Working as part of the ICRC’s Missing Persons program, the role contributes to the design, development, and maintenance of a comprehensive Data Management System that integrates information from multiple sources and technical repositories. The expert ensures that data is structured, interoperable, and aligned with institutional standards, including Prot6 and Resolve, and maintains strict adherence to data protection and legal requirements.
The position further supports the responsible transition of the Missing file to the concerned authorities by preparing and transferring relevant data, developing documentation, and building local capacities in forensic data management, monitoring, and reporting. As a technical specialist, the role provides expert guidance on forensic databases, workflows, and procedures, ensuring continuity and quality of ICRC’s operations in search, recovery, examination, and identification of human remains.
