Спеціаліст/ка із закупівель / Procurement Clerk (ПРООН, Київ, Дніпро, Львів, Ужгород, Одеса)

This UNV assignment is part of The United Nations Recovery and Peacebuilding Programme (UN RPP). The UN RPP has addressed priority needs in the east of Ukraine arising since the outbreak of the armed conflict in the spring of 2014.
