Organizational Context

The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is the specialized agency of the United Nations that promotes industrial development for poverty reduction, inclusive globalization and environmental sustainability.

The mission of UNIDO, as described in the Lima Declaration adopted at the fifteenth session of the UNIDO General Conference in 2013 as well as the Abu Dhabi Declaration adopted at the eighteenth session of UNIDO General Conference in 2019, is to promote and accelerate inclusive and sustainable industrial development (ISID) in Member States.

The relevance of ISID as an integrated approach to all three pillars of sustainable development is recognized by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which will frame United Nations and country efforts towards sustainable development.

UNIDO's mandate is fully recognized in SDG-9, which calls to "Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation".

The relevance of ISID, however, applies in greater or lesser extent to all SDGs.

Accordingly, the Organization's programmatic focus is structured in four strategic priorities:
Creating shared prosperity; Advancing economic competitiveness; Safeguarding the environment; and Strengthening knowledge and institutions.

Each of these programmatic fields of activity contains a number of individual programmes, which are implemented in a holistic manner to achieve effective outcomes and impacts through UNIDO's four enabling functions: (i) technical cooperation; (ii) analytical and research functions and policy advisory services; (iii) normative functions and standards and quality-related activities; and (iv) convening and partnerships for knowledge transfer, networking and industrial cooperation.

Such core functions are carried out in Divisions/Offices in its Headquarters, Regional Offices and Hubs and Country Offices.

The Directorate of Corporate Services and Operations (COR), headed by a Managing Director, is responsible and accountable for the management of UNIDO's human, financial and material resources, ensuring the capacity of the Organization to fulfil its mandate.

The Directorate oversees a full range of financial, human resources, learning and staff development, procurement, information technology and general services to meet the service support needs of the Organization as a whole.

Additionally, the Directorate houses the Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women Unit and the Ethics and Accountability Unit as well as oversees their operations.

Furthermore, the Directorate provides guidance on personnel security and safety matters and ensures the overall coordination of UNIDO's response in this regard.

This position is located under the Facility Management Services.

As part of the common services, on behalf of and financed by the VBOs, the Facility Management Services (COR/BMS) of UNIDO is responsible for ensuring the safe and reliable operation, maintenance and repair of the Vienna International Centre (VIC) buildings and associated installations according to the local building codes and standards, and according to the VIC operating license conditions.

Functions:

• Propose and develop policies, life cycle maintenance and improvement plans for efficient, effective and safe buildings management, administration, and operations for consideration by the Managing Director of COR, taking into account best practices and standards; promote and proactively implement these policies and standards;
• Manage and administer the operation, maintenance and repair of the grounds, buildings and related installations and equipment of the VIC complex on behalf of, and in close consultation with, the VBOs under the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding on Common Services;
• Provide efficient, effective and quality services to the VBOs for all facility management activities;
• Manage the projects financed by the Common Fund for Major Repairs and Replacements at the VIC on behalf of the VBOs and the Government of Austria;
• Take measures to meet strict requirements in respect of waste disposal, bacteriological and chemical control of the water and air in the buildings;
• In close cooperation with the Learning and Development Services (COR/LED), define, plan, and implement skills related training for its personnel;
