Finance Assistant до UNFPA
UNFPA is the lead UN agency for delivering a world where every pregnancy is wanted, every childbirthis safe and every young person’s potential is fulfilled. UNFPA expands choices and possibilities forwomen and young people to lead healthy and productive lives. Our work is derived from the ICPD Programme of Action; that all human beings are entitled to equal rights and protections and no one should be left behind in the fulfilment of their fundamental human rights. In a world where fundamental human rights are at risk, we need principled and ethical leaders, who embody these international norms and standards, and who will defend them courageously and with full conviction.
UNFPA’s new strategic plan (2022−2025), focuses on three transformative results: to end preventable maternal deaths; end unmet need for family planning; and end gender-based violence and harmful practices.
UNFPA is seeking candidates that transform, inspire and deliver high impact and sustained results.
We need UNV who are exceptional in how they manage the resources entrusted to them and who commit to deliver excellence in programme results.
The war in Ukraine has caused civilian casualties and the destruction of vital infrastructure, forcing millions of people to flee their homes seeking safety, protection, and assistance.
They are in urgent need of protection and support. A considerable number of people — mostly elderly, women and children, and people with mobility problems — have remained in villages located very close to the frontline. Most of these people are stranded in areas where there is active fighting or which are subject to heavy daily shelling, and often have limited access to services and basic needs, relying mostly on what is being provided by the local authorities, humanitarian partners, and volunteer groups.
Requirements for candidates:
- 3 years of experience in finance
- Ability to work with computer and office software packages (MS Word, Excel, etc.).
- Ability to perform in a physically challenging working environment.
