MAHKOTA - MIS Specialist

Cardno is the Managing Contractor of MAHKOTA, an Australian Government initiative, which provides support to help Indonesia better reach and benefit the poorest, and address key binding constraints to growth, competitiveness and rising inequality through ongoing labour market and social protection reforms. The Government of Indonesia is committed to accelerating the pace of poverty reduction and the President of Indonesia has declared that poverty reduction is among the highest development priorities of his administration.
  
The Australian Government is a partner with the National Team for the Acceleration of Poverty Reduction (TNP2K) under the office of the Vice President of the Government of Indonesia. TNP2K is a policy think tank to improve the quality and effectiveness of Indonesia's poverty reduction programs that reach millions of poor Indonesians. The next phase of social protection support from November 2015 through to October 2019 is MAHKOTA Indonesia - Menuju Masyarakat Indonesia Yang Kokoh Sejahtera (Towards a Strong and Prosperous Indonesian Society).  It will continue to provide support to help Indonesia better reach and benefit the poorest, as well as address key binding constraints to growth, competitiveness and rising inequality through ongoing labour market and social protection reforms.
 
Referring to the 2015-2019 National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN 2014-2019), the current administration plans to develop a more comprehensive social protection system by 2019. As one of the strategies to accomplish this, the current Government of Indonesia (GoI) administration commits to reform or transform the current rice subsidy program 'Raskin' into a broader food assistance program that will not merely provide rice but also other kinds of food with new distribution mechanism to reduce leakages. In agreement with this plan, the current administration will gradually improve benefit disbursements by transitioning to delivery of cash or vouchers instead of in-kind transfers to beneficiaries, particularly in areas with sufficient networks of local agents/retailers. This measure has been considered appropriate, since in-kind disbursements have raised complications regarding program efficiency, effectiveness, transparency, and accountability in the past.
 
We are currently looking for MIS Specialist under Raskin Reform Activity TNP2K. The MIS Specialist will be responsible for leading the requirement analysis, design, and development of Management Information System (MIS) for pilot period and initial implementation of cashless food assistance program, with complaint handling system (CHS) being integrated into the MIS. In addition, he/she will be responsible for supporting relevant ministries (Kemenko PMK and Kemendagri) for further development/modification  of Raskin Management Information System and Complaint Handling System (Raskin MIS/CHS).  He/she will report to the National Implementation Coordinator/Team Leader for the Pilot and support activities of the Cashless Food Assistance Program and work closely with Complaint Handling Specialist and Application Developer.  He/she will coordinate and work with the entire team of the initiative.
