Description du poste

The Office of Human Resources (OHR) in the Department of Management Strategy, Policy and Compliance (DMSPC) is conducting a comprehensive job analysis in the UN Secretariat. This is a prerequisite for innovating and adapting ways of attracting, recruiting and nurturing talent, including young and diverse talent. It entails ensuring that generic job profiles used in the United Nations reflect updated and forward-looking responsibilities and the skills needed in the workforce to be fit for the future. These generic job profiles set the parameters for hiring managers to publish job openings. The generic job profiles need to be inclusive and free of bias. OHR has developed a job analysis methodology to support that goal. The Individual Consultant (IC) will support these efforts by providing GJPs with updated responsibilities and the skills required to perform them, enabling the Organization to attract the broadest global talent through inclusive recruitment.

• Document the process and all information needed to develop and maintain GJPs, in the form and manner indicated by OHR.
• Provide regular updates on progress to the project manager and team members, as needed.
• Support other Staff Selection 2.0 priorities, as assigned.
