Job no: 593534
Contract type: Fixed Term Appointment
Level: P-4
Location: State of Palestine (SoP)

UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories to save children’s lives, defend their rights, and help them fulfill their potential, from early childhood through adolescence.

At UNICEF, we are committed, passionate, and proud of what we do for as long as we are needed. Promoting the rights of every child is not just a job – it is a calling.

UNICEF is a place where careers are built: we offer our staff diverse opportunities for professional and personal development that will help them reinforce a sense of purpose while serving children and communities across the world. We welcome everyone who wants to belong and grow in a diverse and passionate culture, coupled with an attractive compensation and benefits package.

Visit our website to learn more about what we do at UNICEF.

For every child, the right to Safety

How can you make a difference?

The security team in UNICEF SoP carries a broad set of responsibilities in a highly complex and volatile environment: including security risk management and compliance, operational security and incident response, humanitarian access facilitation, mission planning and movement coordination, programme security support, physical security and asset protection, emergency preparedness, capacity building and training, and civil–military coordination.

As these demands have grown in scale and complexity, particularly in Gaza, the proposed changes aim to clarify supervision, accountability, and decision‑making across the team, while strengthening field‑based leadership and oversight. The adjustments also seek to reduce the burden currently placed on the Chief of Field Office, ensure sustainable national security capacity in both Gaza and Jerusalem, prepare for increased civil–military coordination linked to the anticipated International Stabilisation Force, and maintain direct support to the Special Representative. Together, these changes position the security function to operate more coherently, responsively, and sustainably across East Jerusalem, the West Bank and Gaza.

The P4 Security Manager functions in a highly complex, fragile and volatile operational setting requiring advanced operational judgement, coordination, negotiation and field security management capabilities. The position plays a key role in the implementation of humanitarian movement and of the security risk management measures enabling the continuity of UNICEF humanitarian operations across Gaza, including support to emergency programmes, inter-agency movements, partner operations and high-risk field missions.

The scale and complexity of the Gaza response require the position to independently manage sensitive security coordination responsibilities, including engagement with de facto authorities, local power brokers, armed actors, convoy coordination mechanisms, community leaders and humanitarian partners to facilitate operational access while ensuring compliance with United Nations security management policies and humanitarian principles.

The Security Manager, P4, serves as the senior operational security focal point for UNICEF Gaza operations. The incumbent provides operational leadership and supervision of Gaza-based security personnel and ensures effective implementation of UNICEF security risk management, humanitarian access coordination, emergency preparedness and operational security compliance.

The role supports senior management through operational analysis, crisis coordination, humanitarian liaison and field-level operational decision support in a highly volatile operating environment.

Reporting to the Senior Emergency Coordinator (SEC)/Chief Field Office (CFO), the Security Manager will work in very close collaboration with the Country Office Security Manager in Jerusalem on technical issues and advise the SEC/CFO on their security duties and responsibilities in the area of responsibility in accordance with UN and UNICEF Security Management Systems.

The Security Manager will also contribute to the UNICEF mandate through strong security risk analysis, advice, and relevant mitigation.

Special Notice
• This temporary job opening is available for a period of 3 months (with the possibility of extension). If the selected candidate is a staff member from the United Nations Secretariat, the selection will be administered as a temporary assignment. • The United Nations Secretariat is committed to achieving 50/50 gender balance in its staff. Female candidates are strongly encouraged to apply. The United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) is taking efforts to improve gender parity, including full implementation of the UN-wide, and Departmental Gender Strategies. We are committed to providing an inclusive culture and exciting opportunities for women in the security and operations field. • While this temporary job opening may provide the successful applicant with an opportunity to gain new work experience, the selection for this position is for a limited period and has no bearing on the future incumbency of the post. • A current staff member who holds a fixed-term, permanent or continuing appointment may apply for temporary positions no more than one level above his or her current grade. • Due to the temporary nature of the position, the eligibility for this temporary job opening may be limited to candidates based at the duty station. • This temporary job opening may be limited to "internal candidates," who have been recruited through a competitive examination administered according to staff rule 4.16 or staff selection process including the review of a central review body established according to staff rule 4.15. • A staff member holding a temporary appointment shall be regarded as an external candidate when applying for other positions and may apply for other temporary positions at any level, subject to section 5.7 below and staff rule 4.16 (b) (ii). Therefore, a staff member holding a temporary appointment in the General Service or related categories may only apply to positions within those categories. For full information on eligibility requirements, please refer to section 5 of ST/AI/2010/4Rev.1 on Temporary Appointments. In its resolution 66/234, the General Assembly further "stressed that the Secretary-General should not recur to the practice of temporarily filling posts in the Professional and higher categories with General Service staff members who have not passed the General Service to Professional category examination other than on an exceptional basis, and requests the Secretary-General to ensure that temporary occupation of such posts by the General Service staff shall not exceed a period of one year, effective 1 January 2013…" Consequently, eligible candidates in the General Service or related categories for temporary job openings in the Professional category that have not passed the competitive examination may be selected only on an exceptional basis endorsed by the Office of Human Resources Management where no other suitable candidate could be identified. • An impeccable record for integrity and professional ethical standards is essential. • Staff members of the United Nations common system organizations who will reach the mandatory age of separation or retirement within the duration of the current temporary need period are not eligible to apply. Submitting an application or selection for the current temporary job opening does not delay or increase the mandatory age of separation. • Retirees above the mandatory age of separation who wish to be considered for the current temporary job opening must indicate the reason for their last separation as "retirement." Such retirees shall not be employed by the Organization, unless (a) the operational requirements of the Organization cannot be met by staff members who are qualified and available to perform the required functions; and (b) the proposed employment would not adversely affect the career development or redeployment opportunities of other staff members and represents both a cost-effective and operationally sound solution to meet the needs of the service. • Upon separation from service, including, but not limited to, expiration or termination of, or resignation from, a fixed-term, continuing or permanent appointment, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment on the basis of a temporary appointment for a period of 31 days following the separation. In the case of separation from service on retirement, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment for a period of three months following the separation. This equally applies, mutatis mutandis, with respect to a former or current staff member who has held or holds an appointment in another entity applying the United Nations Staff Regulations and Rules and who applies for a temporary position with the Secretariat. • An external candidate selected for this position is bound by the prevailing condition of the staff selection system under ST/AI/2010/3, as amended, and ST/AI/2010/4/Rev.1. A staff member holding a temporary appointment who is recruited in the Professional and above categories on a temporary appointment, and placed on a position authorized for one year or longer may not apply for or be reappointed to his/her current position within six months of the end of his/her current service. This provision does not apply to staff members holding temporary appointments and placed on positions authorized for one year or more in duty stations authorized for peacekeeping operations or special political missions. • Applying to this job opening carries an expectation to accept the offer, if selected. Staff members are subject to the authority of the Secretary-General and to assignment by him or her. In this context, all staff are expected to move periodically to new functions in their careers in accordance with established rules and procedures. • Pursuant to section 7.11 of ST/AI/2012/2/Rev.1, candidates recruited through the young professionals programme who have not served for a minimum of two years in the position of their initial assignment are not eligible to apply to this position.

WAM Technical Field Manager (AT/ATO) Lebanon and Jordan

noreply@blogger.com (Admin) — Wed, 03 Jun 2026 16:05:57 +0000

Hiring Organization: Mines Advisory Group

Job Location: Lebanon & Jordan

Closing date: 15 Jun 2026

The starting salary package for this position is £79,524 GBP / approx. $107,400 USD including all allowances.

WAM Technical Field Manager (AT/ATO)
Lebanon and Jordan

About MAG:
MAG (Mines Advisory Group) is an international humanitarian organisation based in Manchester, UK, and working in 32 countries. We remove landmines and unexploded ordnance to release safe and productive land for communities, and work to reduce the threat of armed violence by supporting governments to safely manage weapons and ammunition. In 1997, MAG was a co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for our work campaigning for the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention.

About the Lebanon programme:
MAG launched its Weapons and Ammunition Management (WAM) and Physical Security and Stockpile Management (PSSM) activities in Lebanon in 2017, in close coordination with the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF), the Ministry of Defense, PM/WRA, and the U.S. Embassy in Beirut. The program aims to enhance national security and stability by ensuring the safe storage, management, and disposal of weapons and ammunition, in line with international standards (IATG). Since its inception, MAG has constructed over 20 explosive storehouses (ESH)—creating more than 2,000 m² of safe storage space—and upgraded key sites. Beyond infrastructure, MAG has trained over 90 LAF personnel and conducted 66 site assessments to identify and mitigate high-risk areas. Looking ahead to 2025–2027, MAG plans to expand its work by building new ammunition depots in South Lebanon, strengthening national training facilities, and supporting the LAF in implementing sustainable, decentralized, and safe stockpile management systems, ultimately safeguarding lives and reinforcing Lebanon’s long-term security and resilience.

About the Jordan programme:
Building on MAG’s considerable experience of delivering PSSM interventions globally and elsewhere in the Middle East region, MAG has launched a new project to support the Jordanian Armed Forces’ (JAF) Sustainable Physical Security and Stockpile Management (PSSM), to enhance regional security by reducing at-risk, illicitly proliferated, or indiscriminately used conventional weapons. MAG will work in partnership with the JAF to strengthen their munitions management capacity, enabling implementation of the JAF’s Munitions Infrastructure Master Plan.

About the role:
MAG is seeking experienced Technical Field Managers (TFMs) to support the implementation and safe delivery of Weapons and Ammunition Management (WAM) activities in Lebanon and Jordan.

The role will support the development of national standards related to Small Arms and Light Weapons and Physical Security and Stockpile Management, helping to ensure that national practices align with recognised international guidance.

Working closely with national authorities and programme leadership, the Technical Field Manager will help ensure the safe execution of all technical activities in the countries of operation. This includes providing technical oversight during training delivery, supporting the safe management of technical materials and equipment, and contributing to operational risk management.

The role will also support the mentoring and development of national staff and government counterparts, strengthening local capacity in WAM operations and technical safety procedures. Technical Field Managers will contribute to programme reporting and documentation, producing technical reports, and providing operational feedback to programme leadership.

The position requires strong coordination with colleagues, national authorities, and partner organisations to ensure activities are delivered safely, efficiently, and in line with programme objectives.

You bring experience managing or supporting WAM operations in complex operational environments and are confident in applying technical standards to ensure safety and operational effectiveness. Your experience includes leading or supervising teams, mentoring staff, and supporting the development of technical capacity among colleagues and government counterparts.

You are organised, adaptable, and able to operate effectively in challenging environments, including working independently with minimal supervision. You are able to plan and coordinate technical activities, manage competing priorities, and ensure operational tasks are completed safely and efficiently.

You have strong communication and interpersonal skills and are comfortable engaging with colleagues, national authorities, donors, and operational partners. Fluency in English is essential, alongside strong report writing and IT skills including Word and Excel.

Special Notice
• This temporary job opening is available for a period of 364 days (with the possibility of extension). If the selected candidate is a staff member from the United Nations Secretariat, the selection will be administered as a temporary assignment. • The United Nations Secretariat is committed to achieving 50/50 gender balance in its staff. Female candidates are strongly encouraged to apply. The United Nations Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) is taking efforts to improve gender parity, including full implementation of the UN-wide, and Departmental Gender Strategies. We are committed to providing an inclusive culture and exciting opportunities for women in the security and operations field. • While this temporary job opening may provide the successful applicant with an opportunity to gain new work experience, the selection for this position is for a limited period and has no bearing on the future incumbency of the post. • A current staff member who holds a fixed-term, permanent or continuing appointment may apply for temporary positions no more than one level above his or her current grade. However, a current staff member who holds an appointment at the G-6 or G-7 level may also apply to temporary positions in the Professional category up to and including the P-3 level, subject to meeting all eligibility and other requirements for the position. • Due to the temporary nature of the position, the eligibility for this temporary job opening may be limited to candidates based at the duty station. • This temporary job opening may be limited to "internal candidates," who have been recruited through a competitive examination administered according to staff rule 4.16 or staff selection process including the review of a central review body established according to staff rule 4.15. • A staff member holding a temporary appointment shall be regarded as an external candidate when applying for other positions and may apply for other temporary positions at any level, subject to section 5.7 below and staff rule 4.16 (b) (ii). Therefore, a staff member holding a temporary appointment in the General Service or related categories may only apply to positions within those categories. For full information on eligibility requirements, please refer to section 5 of ST/AI/2010/4Rev.1 on Temporary Appointments. In its resolution 66/234, the General Assembly further "stressed that the Secretary-General should not recur to the practice of temporarily filling posts in the Professional and higher categories with General Service staff members who have not passed the General Service to Professional category examination other than on an exceptional basis, and requests the Secretary-General to ensure that temporary occupation of such posts by the General Service staff shall not exceed a period of one year, effective 1 January 2013…" Consequently, eligible candidates in the General Service or related categories for temporary job openings in the Professional category that have not passed the competitive examination may be selected only on an exceptional basis endorsed by the Office of Human Resources Management where no other suitable candidate could be identified. • An impeccable record for integrity and professional ethical standards is essential. • Staff members of the United Nations common system organizations who will reach the mandatory age of separation or retirement within the duration of the current temporary need period are not eligible to apply. Submitting an application or selection for the current temporary job opening does not delay or increase the mandatory age of separation. • Retirees above the mandatory age of separation who wish to be considered for the current temporary job opening must indicate the reason for their last separation as "retirement." Such retirees shall not be employed by the Organization, unless (a) the operational requirements of the Organization cannot be met by staff members who are qualified and available to perform the required functions; and (b) the proposed employment would not adversely affect the career development or redeployment opportunities of other staff members and represents both a cost-effective and operationally sound solution to meet the needs of the service. • Upon separation from service, including, but not limited to, expiration or termination of, or resignation from, a fixed-term, continuing or permanent appointment, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment on the basis of a temporary appointment for a period of 31 days following the separation. In the case of separation from service on retirement, a former staff member will be ineligible for re-employment for a period of three months following the separation. This equally applies, mutatis mutandis, with respect to a former or current staff member who has held or holds an appointment in another entity applying the United Nations Staff Regulations and Rules and who applies for a temporary position with the Secretariat. • An external candidate selected for this position is bound by the prevailing condition of the staff selection system under ST/AI/2010/3, as amended, and ST/AI/2010/4/Rev.1. A staff member holding a temporary appointment who is recruited in the Professional and above categories on a temporary appointment, and placed on a position authorized for one year or longer may not apply for or be reappointed to his/her current position within six months of the end of his/her current service. This provision does not apply to staff members holding temporary appointments and placed on positions authorized for one year or more in duty stations authorized for peacekeeping operations or special political missions. • Applying to this job opening carries an expectation to accept the offer, if selected. Staff members are subject to the authority of the Secretary-General and to assignment by him or her. In this context, all staff are expected to move periodically to new functions in their careers in accordance with established rules and procedures. • Pursuant to section 7.11 of ST/AI/2012/2/Rev.1, candidates recruited through the young professionals programme who have not served for a minimum of two years in the position of their initial assignment are not eligible to apply to this position. • The Staff Regulations, Staff Rules and administrative issuances governing staff appointments can be viewed at: http://www.un.org/hr_handbook.
