Principal Deputy Director and Head, Budget and Finance Services (P5)

The OSCE has a comprehensive approach to security that encompasses politico-military, economic and environmental, and human aspects. It addresses a wide range of security-related concerns, including arms control, confidence- and security-building measures, human rights, combating human trafficking, national minorities, democratization, policing strategies, counter-terrorism, and economic and environmental activities.

The OSCE Secretariat in Vienna assists the Chairpersonship in its activities and provides operational and administrative support to the field operations and, as appropriate, to other institutions.

The OSCE Secretariat's Department of Management and Finance (DMF) is responsible for managing the material and financial resources of the Organization. DMF consists of Budget and Finance Services, Mission Support Section, Information and Communication Technology Section, and the Information Security and Coordination Unit.

Tasks and Responsibilities:

As Principal Deputy Director and Head, Budget and Finance, you will lead the overall OSCE budgetary, extrabudgetary, and finance activities, including managing the Unified Budget cycle process and preparation of its deliverables. You will oversee the implementation of budgets and other financial resources and provide authoritative advice and guidance to leaders and managers across the Organization on all budget and finance matters.

Furthermore, you will provide critical financial management services to clients, overseeing the budgeting, accounts, treasury, and extrabudgetary functions of the OSCE. You will ensure strategic communication and representation of the OSCE's budgetary policies, strategies, and plans vis-à-vis participating States and internal stakeholders, particularly in the context of the budget cycle with the Advisory Committee on Budget and Finance (ACMF).

As the incumbent of the post, you will report directly to the Director for Management and Finance, who assigns work, sets general objectives, priorities, and deadlines for DMF, while the Secretary General serves as your second-level supervisor. You will directly supervise the Chief of Integrated Resource Management Unit and Chief of Accounts and Treasury Unit, and indirectly supervise a Section of approximately 25 staff members.

More specifically, you will be tasked with the following:

  • Providing authoritative guidance and advice to senior leadership, managers, and administrative staff on budgetary and financial matters, overseeing their implementation OSCE-wide;
  • Managing OSCE-wide budget and finance activities, including overseeing preparation of the full Unified Budget cycle components;
  • Overseeing accounting, financial management, and financial reporting activities, managing assessments and extrabudgetary pledges, and preparation of the annual financial statements of the OSCE;
  • Supporting and advising the Chair and members of the Advisory Committee on Management and Finance (ACMF) on budget and finance matters;
  • Serving as the principal deputy director of the Department of Management and Finance, supporting and advising the Director on key matters;
  • Performing other duties as assigned.

Necessary Qualifications:

  • Second-level university degree in business administration, finance, economics, or a related field; a first-level university degree in combination with two years of additional qualifying experience may be accepted;
  • A minimum of ten years of relevant professional-level experience in budgeting and financial management in the public sector, preferably in an international organization context;
  • A minimum of five years of management experience, including experience organizing and delegating work and supervising staff;
  • Established ability to advise on financial resource policy, budgeting, and other complex financial matters;
  • Knowledge of practical application of programme budgeting and current financial management theory and best practices;
  • Excellent analytical abilities, negotiation skills, and presentation skills;
  • Effective interpersonal skills, able to influence effectively and build partnerships and consensus;
  • Excellent oral and written communication skills in English;
  • Knowledge of another official OSCE language will be considered an advantage;
  • Digital literacy and proficient use of Microsoft Office.

Remuneration Package:

Monthly remuneration is around EUR 11,200, with the actual monthly salary depending on post adjustment and family status. OSCE salaries are exempt from taxation in Austria. Social benefits will include the possibility of participation in the Cigna medical insurance scheme and the OSCE Provident Fund.

The OSCE is committed to diversity and inclusion within its workforce and encourages qualified candidates from all backgrounds to apply.
