We are currently seeking qualified candidates to apply for Consultant position (Job No: 594925), based in Kigali, Rwanda, for a five-month office-based assignment. UNICEF operates across more than 190 countries and territories, dedicated to safeguarding children’s lives, upholding their rights, and enabling their full potential from early childhood through adolescence. Joining UNICEF offers professionals the opportunity to contribute meaningfully to a global mission that serves as both a career and a calling. Our organization fosters diverse career pathways enriched with professional growth and personal development, empowering staff to fulfill their purpose while advancing the rights of children and communities worldwide. We seek individuals who are eager to contribute to a vibrant and inclusive culture, supported by a competitive compensation and benefits framework. The successful candidate will provide expert technical assistance to the National Council for Persons with Disabilities (NCPD) to enhance disability mainstreaming within national and local government planning and budgeting frameworks. Responsibilities include strengthening planning, budgeting, and monitoring tools; evaluating the integration of disability inclusion in sectoral and district plans; and advocating for systematic inclusion of disability considerations in government priorities and resource allocation. In close collaboration with NCPD, the Ministry of Local Government (SINALOA), the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (MINEFI), and other key stakeholders, the consultant will facilitate capacity development, conduct planning consultations, and ensure quality assurance to embed disability inclusion across government planning and budgeting cycles. The role also involves coordinating advocacy initiatives to reinforce institutional commitment and accountability for disability inclusion, alongside contributing to analytical and systems-strengthening tasks such as mapping disability indicators across government information systems, conducting capacity assessments, developing disability management information and referral systems, and analyzing the costing of disability support services. These efforts aim to build a robust evidence base and institutional systems essential for advancing disability-inclusive governance and service delivery in Rwanda. Qualified applicants must meet the following criteria: a Master’s degree in Social Policy, Public Policy, Development Studies, Economics, or a closely related field. A minimum of five years of professional experience is required in disability inclusion, government planning and budgeting systems, public financial management, monitoring and evaluation, institutional capacity development, and multi-stakeholder coordination within decentralized governance settings. Fluency in both English and Kinyarwanda is essential, with proficiency in French considered advantageous. Strong analytical, capacity-building, facilitation, and report-writing skills are also required. Desirable

Expert Application Advice
When tailoring your CV for UNICEF Bangladesh, don’t just list your years in finance—show how you’ve mastered les compétences demandées dans l'annonce with real results. For senior roles, a concrete metric or outcome proves you’re ready to lead, not just manage.
UN process — Complete an up-to-date, role-specific UN P11 — a generic P11 is disqualifying. Apply within 72 hours of posting: UN agencies often close applications once volume thresholds are reached.
Key figures — Budgets managed, cost savings achieved, audits closed on time: prepare 3 precise financial achievements with amounts. African CFOs often test IFRS or local GAAP knowledge — be ready with specific examples.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
