1. Weekly Job Bulletin
Week 15
Looking for opportunities or promising talents
for positions in the area of development?
Does your Organization/Employer offer any
vacancies that could be a match for previous
JPOs or SARCs? Please feel free to forward
us any vacancy to
asdrubal.santana@undp.org and we will add
them to the weekly bulletin!
This week’s highlight – Positions in the Procurement Sector
From buying fleets of heavy duty
vehicles needed in the most
inaccessible parts of the African
continent to purchasing needles and
thread for a self-help project in Pakistan,
UN Agencies look for professionals who
can help the organisation to meet its
goals around the world by obtaining the
goods and services required.
Procurement is an essential function to
achieve the UN’s mandates and in some
cases, it is seen as a model for
developing the capacity of recipient
governments (read more here). For this
reason, this week we are highlighting
positions within the Procurement Sector.
