BACKGROUND AND ORGANIZATIONAL CONTEXT: Zambia is facing an elevated risk of significant food security impacts associated with the forecasted 2026/27 El Niño event. Current regional analysis identifies Southern Africa as particularly exposed to reduced rainfall during the main November–March rainy season, with food security impacts expected to develop progressively following the end of the agricultural season and subsequent lean season period. Zambia enters this period following a strong 2025/26 agricultural season and record maize harvest, creating an important window for early preparedness and strategic use of available national food supplies. At the same time, the evolving El Niño outlook presents significant risks to the 2026/27 agricultural season and subsequent food security situation. Zambia's current planning scenario anticipates a progression from preparedness and anticipatory action through assessment and repositioning to potential scaled response and recovery, with humanitarian needs potentially peaking during the 2027/28 lean season. The response will require strong coordination across programme, RAM, supply chain, finance, partnerships, communications, field operations and other functions, as well as close engagement with Government, cooperating partners, UN agencies, donors and regional and corporate WFP structures. Lessons from Zambia's 2023/24 El Niño response demonstrate the importance of early and coherent decisions on targeting, transfer modalities and transfer values; strong Government and inter-agency coordination; evidence and analytics; logistics readiness; and timely resource mobilization. Against this background, WFP Zambia seeks an experienced Emergency Coordinator to provide dedicated coordination and strategic-operational oversight of the Country Office's El Niño preparedness and response. PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT The Emergency Coordinator will provide overall coordination of WFP Zambia's El Niño preparedness and response, ensuring that analysis, programme decisions, operational planning, supply chain and delivery arrangements, resources, partnerships and implementation are brought together i
