Organizational Setting<\/span><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n\n
\n
\n

Under the guidance of the UNFPA Representative, the International Operations Manager (IOM), leads strategic planning for operations, setting of management targets, and outsourced services.<\/p>\n

The IOM leads a broad portfolio ranging from financial and human resources management; procurement; IT; travel and logistics; common services; to security of UNFPA premises and staff.\u00a0 The IOM advises the Representative on course correction; compliance, cost effectiveness; and creative responses to emerging complex challenges.<\/p>\n

Job Purpose:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The IOM has a leading role in achieving key results which have an impact on the overall economy, efficiency and effectiveness of Country Office operations, and the functioning of UNFPA in line with the use of corporate resources in the following areas:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Financial Services<\/li>\n
  • Human Resources<\/li>\n
  • Procurement and Logistical Services<\/li>\n
  • ICT<\/li>\n
  • Implement UN agenda on Common Services and Joint Procurement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The IOM is accountable for supporting the effective development and delivery of an innovative Country Programme focused on population and development and universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights, including maternal health, family planning, gender, and adolescent and youth empowerment.<\/p>\n

    Through delivery of effective programmes, including in emergency settings, you serve on the frontline, supporting the organization\u2019s ability to deliver high quality results.\u00a0 Your ultimate accountability is to the people that you serve; the most vulnerable, excluded, or marginalized and for the causes that you serve; human rights, sustainable development and humanitarian relief.<\/p>\n

    How You Can Make a Difference:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirth is safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled. UNFPA\u2019s new strategic plan (2018-2021), focuses on three transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and harmful practices.<\/p>\n

    In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical staff, who embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and with full conviction.<\/p>\n

    UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results; we need staff who are transparent, exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.<\/p>\n
