Chemonics International recrute un “Program Implementation Specialist” Retour vers les opportunités

Libya Transition Initiative (LTI) 2
Scope of Work

Background

At the beginning of 2016, Libya’s political future is more uncertain than at any time since the 2011 revolution. Political division, armed conflict and a crisis of legitimacy at the national level have accelerated the fragmentation of Libya’s governance landscape. Regional coalitions which formed in 2014 have fractured during 2015 and cities and municipalities have become increasingly isolated. Libya’s two nominal national governments both exert little authority outside their respective bases in Tripoli and Tobruk. The political elites involved in the UN-sponsored dialogue to form a unity government lack legitimacy and the country lacks a national political leadership that can claim a mandate to negotiate a solution to Libya’s crises. The collapse of the national-level political process and institutions has shifted significant governance responsibilities to local formal and informal actors. Municipal councils are viewed as the most credible institutions, though they face serious challenges to providing services to their constituents.

Purpose

The Tunis-based Program Implementation Specialist (PIS) will be primarily responsible for administrative support to the Libya field team in grant activities under LTI2. The PIS willcoordinate closely with the Libyan heads of offices in Tripoli, Misrata, Sabha, and Benghazi, in addition to day to day coordination with the Deputy Chief of Party (DCOP), M&E Manager, and OTI field staff. The PIS supports implementation and proper documentation for LTI 2 activities in accordance with grant agreements and activity objectives and in line with Chemonics/LTI 2 policies, procedures, and practices. The PIS will also provide direct support to the DCOP and Chemonics Senior Management Team in contract management.
