PG has developed in past years a series of procurement business intelligence and data analysis tools, building on the increased use by the organization of eProcurement systems and modules (eSourcing system, ERP’s contract management and supplier performance evaluation modules, etc.). This is currently being enhanced through a corporate reporting initiative, led by the ICT department in cooperation with other relevant groups. In addition, the organization has made a number of improvements in recent years on the guidance and tools for offices to develop procurement strategies and plans.
The Procurement Group has decided to create this new position to further develop and lead its approach to the oversight of procurement activities across the organization, including by leveraging data for strategic decision making; and to conduct procurement capacity, risk and performance assessments.
Due to the nature of the job, the selected candidate is expected to travel occasionally to field offices, particularly to conduct capacity assessment and development missions.
It is expected there will be constant interaction and collaboration with other PG teams and key stakeholders, including UNOPS Regions and offices, and other HQ groups such as: IPMG, ICT, IPAS, HQCPC, IAIG, FG, ECO.
