Expert Application Advice

What this role involves
You will advise the Ghana PlanetGOLD project on legal frameworks for artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM), focusing on formalization, environmental compliance, and human rights. Day-to-day tasks include reviewing national mining laws, drafting policy recommendations, and supporting stakeholder consultations with government agencies and mining communities.

Key skills to highlight
Demonstrate expertise in Ghanaian mining law, ASGM regulatory reforms, and environmental justice. Strong candidates show experience in legal drafting, multi-stakeholder engagement, and familiarity with UNDP’s sustainable development goals. Fluency in English and knowledge of local mining contexts (e.g., Obuasi, Tarkwa) are assets.

Taf4All CV tip
In your CV’s experience section, lead with a specific ASGM or mining law project—e.g., “Advised on legal formalization of 50+ small-scale miners in Western Region.” Use Ghana-specific terms like “Minerals and Mining Act 2006 (Act 703)” to prove local knowledge.

Before you apply
UNDP never charges fees for applications or interviews. Verify this role on the official UNDP jobs portal (jobs.undp.org). Be cautious of unsolicited emails requesting payment for “visa processing” or “priority placement.”

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

  • 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.
