Terms and Conditions
Project Background:
In Haiti, UNOPS has been supporting the electoral process since 2005 through a number of procurement and logistics-focused projects. These projects and associated activities contribute to the UN’s coordinated support for Haiti.
The PM will lead an existing UNOPS project with extremely high visibility and a timeline managed by external stakeholders. Given the importance of this project, the PM will work on a daily basis with the Country Representative and the Head of the Programme. The PM will be leading a multi-disciplinary team of more than 40 personnel working across multiple offices across Haiti. While the position depends on the extension of the project’s ongoing funding, HTCO is preparing its senior management team in anticipation of a rapid launch.
The Senior Project Manager is responsible for the day-to-day operations of the project(s) and provides services to the different donors, partners and beneficiaries. The Senior Project Manager acts on behalf of the Project Board to manage the project on an ongoing basis during the Implementation Stage. The main responsibility of a Senior Project Manager is to ensure that the project outputs are delivered within the specified project tolerances of time, cost, quality, scope, risk and benefits. He/she is expected to meet the organization’s performance and delivery goals.
The Senior Project Manager is responsible to create the Implementation Plan, use the Project Initiation Documents (PID), Legal Agreement and have a thorough understanding of the terms, conditions, and the respective roles and responsibilities of the partners/stakeholders to ensure the project(s) outputs are capable of meeting the business cases for both UNOPS and the partner(s). Success of the project(s) and hence Senior Project Manager will be based on the defined Success Criteria.
The senior project manager for Implementation projects will be managing project(s) which ultimate goal is to provide implementation services that contribute to the achievement of partners’ goals. The variety of projects is quite diverse and can range from management of grants, development of strategies to delivery of training or providing technical assistance.
UNOPS has been working in Haiti for 20 years with the Haitian Government, other United Nations agencies and international organizations to support them in project management, procurement and logistics services. UNOPS also provides communication and governance support, as well as technical expertise in engineering and infrastructure for the implementation of projects that have a positive impact on the lives of Haitians. Over the past few years, the Haiti Country Office has mainly implemented major infrastructure projects (roads, schools, renewable energy), health-related procurement such as medical equipment and ambulances, and management and services in support of the government.
Haiti is a non-family duty station, facing significant security issues in its capital Port-au-Prince and some areas outside of the capital city. Projects are implemented primarily outside the capital, with more conducive security conditions. UNOPS Haiti management can be described as one led by a collaborative leadership, with strong support provided to each Project Manager and personnel. Most national and international personnel have worked long-term in-country for UNOPS.
