The United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS) is an
operational arm of the United Nations, supporting the successful implementation
of its partners' peacebuilding, humanitarian and development projects around
the world. Mandated as a central resource of the United Nations, UNOPS
provides sustainable project management, procurement and infrastructure
services to a wide range of governments, donors and United Nations
organizations. With over 8,000 personnel spread across 80 countries,
UNOPS offers its partners the logistical, technical and management knowledge
they need, where they need it. By implementing around 1,000 projects for
our partners at any given time, UNOPS makes significant contributions to
results on the ground, often in the most challenging environments.
The Management Support Centre (MSC) supports the
establishment and maintenance of global management services engagements with
partners, in close coordination with regions, country offices and practices.
Within MSC a small team of specialists is responsible for supporting the
development of new service lines and identifying potential partners and their
needs through market research, strategy development and business case
preparation.
Under the overall guidance and direct supervision of the
Business Market Specialist, and in close coordination with the other members of
MSC, the Business Planning Specialist will be mainly responsible for developing
strategic plans to help expand existing UNOPS service offerings, and
establishing newly identified service lines, based on market analysis, and in
coordination with the technical specialists in MSC.
