Wien, Österreich OSCE Vollzeit

**Background**:
Please note that this position is for the coverage of a staff member who is on leave and is available until mid-September 2024.

The OSCE has a comprehensive approach to security that encompasses politico-military, economic and environmental, and human aspects. It therefore 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. All 57 participating States enjoy equal status, and decisions are taken by consensus on a politically, but not legally binding basis.

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 Conflict Prevention Centre (CPC) plays a key role in supporting and co-ordinating the OSCE's activities in the field, in providing analysis and policy advice to the Secretary General (SG) and the Chairpersonship, in leading work on all aspects of the conflict cycle, and in supporting the various formats dealing with protracted conflicts. The CPC also serves as the focal point in the Secretariat for co-ordinating and developing the OSCE's role in the politico-military dimension.

The Policy Support Service (PSS) serves as the Organization's primary point of contact on all matters concerning field operations; it monitors the implementation of the mandates of the individual field operations and advises the SG and the Chairpersonship on related policy and operational issues. It also analyses early-warning signals regarding the situation in the field and recommends the implementation of relevant preventive or reactive action. Support provided to the SG and the Chairpersonship includes background information, policy support and advice, input to speeches and travel files as well as drafting summary records. PSS facilitates the co-ordination of programmes and activities among field operations and with those of OSCE specialized units within the Secretariat and institutions and assists field operations with their input to the budget cycle process. PSS also provides support for the Chairperson-in-Office's representatives dealing with protracted conflicts and related formats.

The PSS is composed of four regional desks covering Eastern Europe, South-Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia.

**Tasks and Responsibilities**:
As Policy Support Service Assistant, you will report to the Senior Policy Support Officer, with the Deputy Director for Policy Support Service, acting as your second-level supervisor, and will hold the following duties:
Drafting standard correspondence on the basis of instructions received and/or on the basis of own knowledge of the work, including letters and reports from notes and rough drafts. Drafting terms of reference for consultants and temporary staff, as well as other HR related forms. Compiling inputs submitted from Policy Support Officers;

Referring unusual software or printer problems to the technical unit and ensuring that any hardware problems are immediately resolved. Ensuring the availability of office supplies (stationery, toner, paper) and contacting General Services or ICT as required;
