Expert Application Advice
What this role involves
You will manage UNFPA’s IT infrastructure in Accra, ensuring network reliability, troubleshooting hardware/software issues, and supporting staff with digital tools. Daily tasks include monitoring system performance, coordinating with vendors, and providing training on cybersecurity basics. This role is hands-on and requires you to keep field offices connected, especially during health or humanitarian operations.
Key skills to highlight
Show expertise in network administration (LAN/WAN, firewalls), Microsoft 365, and IT asset management. Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., Azure) and basic database support is a plus. Strong problem-solving and the ability to explain tech to non-tech colleagues are essential. Certifications like CompTIA A+ or Cisco CCNA will set you apart.
Taf4All CV tip
Add a “Systems Support” section listing specific tools you’ve used (e.g., Active Directory, VoIP, Cisco routers). Quantify impact: “Reduced downtime by 30% through proactive patch management” or “Supported 50+ remote staff during COVID-19.” This aligns with UNFPA’s need for reliable, scalable ICT.
Before you apply
UNFPA never asks for payment to apply or interview. Verify the recruiter’s email ends with @unfpa.org. Report suspicious requests to the UN fraud hotline. Apply only through the official UNFPA careers portal.
🎯 Make your application ATS-ready
ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

- •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.
