UNICEF, the world's largest provider of vaccines for developing countries, supports child health and nutrition, good water and sanitation, quality basic education for all boys and girls, and the protection of children from violence, exploitation, and AIDS. Funded entirely by voluntary contributions from individuals, businesses, and foundations, UNICEF is dedicated to advancing the rights of every child.

We are currently seeking a Deputy Representative Programme at the P-5 level. This is a full-time position requiring an MBA, MSc, or MA qualification. The role is based in the field of Project and Program Management.

Key Functions and Accountabilities:

CO Programme planning and development, support to the Representative on managing the CO, monitoring and quality control of Programmes, representation, alliance building and UN System coordination, private sector engagement and partnerships, innovation, knowledge management and capacity building.

Profile:

To qualify as an advocate for every child, you will have an advanced university degree in social sciences, international relations, government and public relations, public or social policy, sociology, social or community development, or another relevant technical field. A minimum of ten years of professional development experience that combines technical and managerial leadership in development cooperation at the international level, some of which served in developing countries, is required. Relevant professional experience in any UN system agency or organization is considered an asset. Experience in humanitarian settings is strongly desired.

Skills:

Negotiation skills, emotional intelligence, risk-taking ability, soft skills required in sensitive political settings, and the ability to work well under pressure in high threat environments. Fluency in English is required; knowledge of a local language is an asset. Relevant experience at country level, particularly in development, fragile settings, and humanitarian contexts, is desirable.

  • 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.
