Role description and task arrangements

Collaborate on the future of nature monitoring in the Netherlands. Are you an experienced data analyst and do you love nature? Do you want to make a real impact on the conservation of biodiversity in the Netherlands? Then this is your chance to work on an urgent nature program.

The national nature monitoring improvement program
is looking for reinforcement!

We are looking for a driven data analyst to play a key role in improving nature data monitoring and reporting on behalf of the State (Ministries of LVVN, I&W, Defense) and the cooperating provinces.

Background Nature Monitoring Improvement Program.

 We are working on the necessary and urgent improvements in the national system of nature monitoring, information facilities and reporting, arising from the joint information needs. This is a task jointly supported and taken up by all organizations involved.

The activities in this program are organized along three substantive program lines, arising from the various forms of monitoring: Nature Measures, Environmental Conditions and Target Reach. Each program line has one or more project team(s). Each project team coordinates the activities and works with representatives and experts from the participating organizations on the results of the program. In addition to the three substantive program lines, there is a Data and Information Delivery Team. This team consists of enterprising, proactive and, above all, driven people who are willing to take action. There is room for creativity and together we are responsible for the results. From this team We support the substantive program lines and build a data infrastructure for nature data.

What you will do 
As an Information and Data Analyst, you will be the connecting link between the Data and Information Delivery Team and the Goal Reach program line. Target Reach focuses on improving monitoring for assessing nature quality. The aim is to ensure that the data from monitoring is complete and uniform. Within Target Reach there are 4 projects, you will be supporting the first three:
  • Species Monitoring
  • For Uniform Assessment Frameworks
  • Habitats of VHR species.
  • Vegetation and Habitat Type Mapping.

You will help to clarify information needs, map and test available (fragmented) data sources and assess the quality and usability of datasets. For this we are looking for someone who on the one hand has a thorough understanding of information flows and on the other hand has an eye for the user. Separating main and side issues is of course of great importance here. Within the program we work iteratively and learn by applying, failing and improving. Many projects therefore have a dedicated pilot team.

Within target reach, you will work with project leaders, subject matter experts, the data steward of Data and Information Delivery Team and external parties. We are looking for someone who has no trouble and enjoys delving into the nature domain and moves easily in a complex stakeholder field of provinces, central government, terrain management organizations (tbo's) and consultancies. We see knowledge of the nature domain as an advantage. You also have extensive experience in determining information needs and, together with the service designer, translating these into information products.

Responsibilities
  • Retrieve and specify information needs from subject matter experts, project leaders and stakeholders
  • Inventory, review and assess data sources for quality, timeliness, reliability and usability
  • Establishing information and data models and capturing and documenting them
  • Making impact analyses and modeling data and information flows
  • Inventory, analyze and record data models of supplying partners
  • Organize, participate and supervise information sessions with subject matter experts
  • Coordinate with Data Steward and project leaders within the program
  • Identify bottlenecks and advise on solutions in the field of information services

Profile
  • A communicatively strong personality who can move quickly and take responsibility
  • Structured and analytical. You know how to make complex matters concrete and can switch well at different levels
  • Organizational awareness and experience in a multi-stakeholder setting with diverse interests
  • Knowledge of and experience with processes and developments in the field of, geo-information, digital government.
  • Knowledge of and experience with processes and developments related to nature is an advantage


Number of hours per week: 28 - 36 hours (partly at BIJ12 office location in Utrecht, partly at home) 
Renewal options of 2 times 12 months. 
 
Renewal is on otherwise unchanged contractual terms (including the hourly rate).
