To achieve its objectives, IPMG has established
three interrelated and interdependent work streams, namely, Strategic Initiatives,
Standards, and Engagement Assurance. IPMG is managed overall by the Director of
IPMG and supported by a Programme Support Unit.
Engagement Assurance, managed by the
Head of Engagement Assurance includes
the following units: Organizational Project and Programme Management Office (OPMO),
Risk-based Performance Assessment (RBPA), Infrastructure Design Review (Infra
DR) and Engagement Acceptance (EA).
The Engagement Assurance team supports the successful development, design and delivery of
engagements through a robust system that promotes excellence, consistency and
sustainability. The range of expertise in Engagement Assurance includes inter alia Capacity Assessments on Infrastructure and Project
Management, Quality Assurance on infrastructure designs, provision of a
decision-enabling structure supporting the oversight and management of UNOPS
portfolio and implementation of policies and the management of Engagement Assurance
processes for all ongoing and closing engagements.
The engagement assurance team works
across the aforementioned areas to help reduce organizational risk and improve
project performance.
Working within the Infrastructure and Project Management Group
(IPMG), the successful incumbent will be responsible for providing technical
support to Engagement Assurance and IPMG, with a focus on Risk-based Performance Assessment. The aim is to provide support on
information analysis/desk reviews, preparation/participation on associated
field missions and support the corresponding post-missions follow up activities.
