Job Description

Background and Organizational Context

UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender, nationality and culture. Individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence.

UNDP does not tolerate sexual exploitation and abuse, any kind of harassment, including sexual harassment, and discrimination. All selected candidates will, therefore, undergo rigorous reference and background checks.

In support of the new Country Programme Document (CPD, 2020-2025) launched in mid-2020 which entailed a reconfiguration of the CO’s policy and programme management architecture and the new Regional Programme (RP, 2022-2025) currently under development, taking into consideration the findings and recommendations of the OAI management audits in late 2020, and learning from experience and feedback from clients on operations services, UNDP-Ethiopia is in the process of reconfiguring its operations structure and transform its business processes through automation, with a first set of actions completed in July 2022 for reconfigured staffing and business process automation in place by December 2022.
