Role Guidance and Helpful Context (to strengthen your application)

Project Development (Manager / Deputy / Assistant Manager)
Show how you turn a problem into a fundable project. Good applications mention: a concise problem statement, a theory of change or logic model, activity-based budgets, procurement plans, KPIs, and a monitoring framework. Mention comfort with PC-I style documents, government procedures, and audit-ready files. Demonstrate coordination with federal/provincial departments and partners.

Material Hubs (Deputy Manager)
Emphasize relief warehousing competencies: cycle counts, FEFO/lot tracking, dispatch documentation, pre-positioning strategy before monsoon/cyclone seasons, and surge operations. Strengths include inventory accuracy, clean stock cards, GPS-tagged dispatch evidence, and audit readiness.

Urban & Regional Planning — URP (Assistant Manager)
Describe experience translating hazard/risk data into spatial decisions: safe siting for shelters/warehouses/EOCs, evacuation routes, and access constraints. Mention tools (e.g., GIS), how you work with municipal/provincial data, and experience with multi-stakeholder planning.

Communication & Networks (Assistant Manager)
Highlight resilient communications: EOC networks, VHF/HF radio, satellite phones, redundancy, device issuance logs, and uptime under pressure. Add brief examples of incident tickets closed, SOPs you implemented, or exercises you supported.

Tech Multimedia
Show that you can turn complex response updates into clear visuals fast: alert infographics, situation-report snippets, short clips, and field photos with proper captions/attribution. Accessibility matters: readable type, color contrast, and concise language.
