Technical Coordinator

UNDP’s Programme of Assistance to the Palestinian People (PAPP) was established through a resolution adopted by the UN General Assembly on 20 December 1978, calling upon UNDP “to improve the economic and social conditions of the Palestinian people”. In partnership with Palestinian institutions, civil society, communities and donors, UNDP’s goal is to empower the Palestinian People to establish a viable State that is able to realize the right to development for its people and support their socioeconomic resilience. Since its establishment, UNDP/PAPP has delivered over USD 1.5 billion in development assistance to the Palestinian people.  UNDP/PAPP places empowerment, resilience and sustainability at the centre of its operation and focuses on three priority areas: the Gaza Strip, East Jerusalem and Area C of the West Bank, where the needs are the greatest. UNDP/PAPP is active in four thematic areas: democratic governance and the rule of law; economic empowerment and private sector development; environment and management of natural resources; and public and social infrastructure. UNDP is currently seeking the recruitment of a Technical Coordinator under a National Personnel Services Agreement (N-PSA), to work under the direct supervision of the TEA Project Manager, in  collaboration and liaison with relevant TEA team members (Logistics Coordinator and Technical Specialists) and  the Programme Design &  Implementation Analyst and other units, in order to ensure effective delivery of the TEA project in line with the Project’s approved Results Framework and Annual Work Plans.  The expected duration of the agreement is 8 months. Extension of the agreement will be conditional to the satisfactory performance evaluation as well as availability of funding under the project.
