Education Cluster Coordination Roster (e-GWR), P-2-3-4,

The purpose of this announcement is to attract suitable candidates to be included on UNICEF’s e-Global Web Roster (e-GWR). The e-GWR is used by UNICEF to identify candidates to deploy to countries in emergencies on short term assignments. Therefore, it is not a regular vacancy announcement but rather an outreach campaign to attract candidates interested in short term emergency assignments. Candidates with suitable emergency profiles will be placed on the e-Global Web Roster to be considered for short term (3-6 Months) emergency assignments worldwide. Candidates will be responsible for periodically updating their profiles so that recruiters may view candidates’ most recent work experience. In case of emergency in any of the UNICEF programme countries, candidates considered for emergency assignments will receive e-mail queries of interest and availability from UNICEF DHR Emergency Unit.

Candidates will:

  • be expected to deploy within 1 to 2 weeks from confirming to UNICEF DHR Emergency Unit their interest and availability;

  • be deployed on 2 to 6 month assignments on a Temporary Appointment (TA) or consultancy (SSA) contracts (for external applicants);

  • or be deployed on 1 to 3 month missions (for internal applicants).

Key expected results:

The objective of a country-level Education Cluster is to ensure a timely, coherent and effective education response by mobilizing stakeholders to respond in a strategic manner to a humanitarian crisis. Guided by the IASC ‘Generic Terms of Reference for Sector Leads at Country Level’ Cluster Coordinators will lead and facilitate this process through:

  • inclusion of key humanitarian partners;
