Individual Consulting Services Expert Consultant, GSSC Finance section, Budapest, Hungary, 12 months, office-based, with travel. UNICEF’s Global Shared Services Centre (GSSC) provides Individual Consultant Services (ICS) supporting the contracting and administration of individual consultants across UNICEF. As part of the continued evolution of ICS, UNICEF is seeking to strengthen the way individual consultant talent is identified, accessed, managed and evaluated. Current opportunities include greater use of Long-Term Agreements (LTAs), stronger consultant talent data, simplified access to exceptional expertise, improved rate transparency and stronger guidance for both UNICEF users and consultants
The Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo has declared an outbreak of Ebola Virus Disease affecting Ituri and other affected or at-risk provinces. National authorities, with the support of humanitarian partners, have activated emergency coordination and response mechanisms to contain transmission and protect affected communities.
The outbreak is unfolding in a complex humanitarian environment marked by insecurity, population displacement, high mobility, constrained access to essential services and weak water, sanitation, hygiene and infection prevention and control systems. These conditions heighten the risk of transmission in health facilities and communities and require rapid, well-coordinated and technically rigorous WASH/IPC action.
The geographic expansion of the outbreak, the operational complexity of the response and the need to align interventions across national, provincial and health-zone levels require senior leadership. An experienced profile is therefore required to provide the strategic expertise, technical authority and convening capacity needed to lead UNICEF's WASH/IPC response and support Government-led coordination across affected and at-risk areas.
The purpose of the assignment is to provide technical support to the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES) in Lao PDR
to develop a conceptual framework and roadmap for establishing a school readiness assessment system, drawing on
MoES’ existing School Readiness Competencies (SRC) targeting children aged 5 to under 6 years (one year before primary
grade one entry).
The existing MoES’ SCR sets standards on school readiness across five domains, namely 1) physical development, movement
and hygiene; 2) cognition and learning; 3) language and communication; 4) emotional development; and 5) social
development. SCR is an essential foundation for children aged 3 to 5 years before they enter primary school. Beyond
expanding equitable access to early childhood education, the MoES also aims to ensure the quality of early childhood
education (ECE) translates into children’s school readiness outcomes. Whilst the CRS hves been integrated into the MOES’
ECE curriculum, teacher guides and training, etc., actual assessment on children’s learning and developmental stans against
the CRS has not yet been undertaken to date, nor is a system to undertake such an assessment yet to be established.

The successful candidates will provide technical, operational and coordination support across programme planning, implementation, monitoring and partnership-building, contributing to both emergency response and longer-term health system strengthening efforts. They will work closely with government counterparts, health partners and UNICEF teams to improve access to quality child health, nutrition, immunization, early childhood development, mental health and rehabilitation services, particularly for the most vulnerable and conflict-affected populations. This is an opportunity to make a direct impact on the lives of children in Ukraine by helping to build more resilient, equitable and child-centered health systems at both local and national levels.

UNICEF is committed to ensuring that all children and young people acquire the knowledge and skills needed to learn, thrive, and transition to further education, decent work, and active citizenship. However, many adolescents, particularly those affected by conflict and displacement, face barriers to formal education due to interrupted schooling, age-grade mismatches, lack of documentation, and legal restrictions. Flexible learning pathways such as accelerated learning, bridging programmes, alternative delivery models, and links to vocational training can help address these challenges, but their implementation remains inconsistent.
This assignment will address three key gaps: limited documentation of effective practices, barriers to certification and progression, and a lack of practical guidance for displacement settings. Drawing on evidence from PROSPECTS partnership countries, the consultancy will identify and analyze promising approaches, examine certification and transition pathways, and develop practical guidance to support UNICEF country offices and partners in expanding quality, flexible education opportunities for adolescents in fragile and displacement-affected contexts.

Under the Global Mental Health Lead, the consultant will deliver a defined set of technical products covering strategic partnerships and investment opportunities, practical guidance and learning resources for country-level systems strengthening, and evidence synthesis and publications. These outputs will strengthen UNICEF's capacity to support countries in planning, integrating and scaling child and adolescent mental health services within health and community systems.
