Thailand Operations Hub (THOH) is a UNOPS business unit under the UNOPS Asia Regional Office and it was established to better support, develop and oversee the UNOPS portfolio of projects in South East Asia and the Pacific.
The Hub comprises two main offices –THOH Thailand based in Bangkok and THOH Indonesia based in Jakarta and its current portfolio spans HR transactional services, financial management services, procurement services and project implementation services currently being provided to a wide range of other UN entities, INGOs and Governments/Government agencies in South East Asia and the Pacific.
In Indonesia, the Bogor Agricultural Institute (IPB) and Columbia University’s Earth Institute, as UNOPS main partners, have developed a “Fire Risk System” which contributed to the development of policy frameworks for responding to land and peat fires. This line of work is anticipated to scale up in 2017 through the GAMBUT project (‘Generating Anticipatory Measures for Better Utilization of Tropical Peatlands), comprising capacity building, policy development, technical expertise and knowledge enhancement, and stakeholder coordination. Additionally, UNOPS is engaging with current and other donors and partners on various initiatives in Indonesia.
In the context of THOH’s ongoing
operations in Indonesia, UNOPS is looking for a highly-motivated Project
Management Intern to support the UNOPS Indonesia management team in Jakarta.
The Project Management Intern will report to the Office and Programme Manager in Jakarta and
will support the implementation of THOH’s projects in country. The incumbent
will be liaising extensively with colleagues at THOH Thailand as well as relevant
offices at UNOPS Asia Regional Office and UNOPS Headquarters.
