Grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, UN Women works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. Placing women's rights at the centre of all its efforts, UN Women leads and coordinates United Nations System efforts to ensure that commitments on gender equality and gender mainstreaming translate into action throughout the world. It provides strong and coherent leadership in support of Member States' priorities and efforts, building effective partnerships with civil society and other relevant actors. The overall objective of the Inter-Governmental Support Unit is to ensure that UN Women provides the inter-governmental bodies with the substantive support and inputs they need for successful deliberations related to gender equality and the empowerment of women. Within the Unit there are three focus areas, including: support the work of the main intergovernmental bodies of the United Nations (General Assembly, Economic and Social Council, Security Council, GA/ECOSOC/SC), plan, organize and support the sessions of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW); plan, organize and support the sessions of the UN Women Executive Board (EB). The Administrative & Finance Associate reports to the Director and is responsible for managing the timely and effective delivery of a whole range of administrative and financial services ensuring compliance with organizational financial rules, regulations, policies, procedures and approved allocations.

NOTE: In July 2010, the United Nations General Assembly created UN Women, the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women. The creation of UN Women came about as part of the UN reform agenda, bringing together resources and mandates for greater impact. It merges and builds on the important work of four previously distinct parts of the UN system (DAW, OSAGI, INSTRAW and UNIFEM), which focused exclusively on gender equality and women's empowerment. More information on UN Women can be found through www.unwomen.org. All applications must include (as an attachment) the completed UN Women Personal History form (P-11) which can be downloaded from http://www.unwomen.org/about-us/employment Kindly note that the system will only allow one attachment. Applications without the completed UN Women P-11 form will be treated as incomplete and will not be considered for further assessment. | |
