**Vacancy Announcement**

**Only nationals or permanent residents of the country of the duty station are considered eligible.**

***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 Departments/Offices in its Headquarters, Regional Offices and Hubs and Country Offices.

The Directorate houses the technical Divisions of Capacity Development, Industrial Policy Advice and Statistics (TCS/CPS); Circular Economy and Environmental Protection (TCS/CEP); Decarbonization and Sustainable Energy (TCS/DSE); SMEs, Competitiveness and Job Creation (TCS/SME); and Digital Transformation and AI Strategies (TCS/DAS) and the Montreal Protocol Division (TCS/MPD).

This position is located under the Montreal Protocol Division (TCS/MPD) which is responsible for planning, developing and implementing activities in Member States to facilitate compliance with the Montreal Protocol and, in particular, its Kigali Amendment and to support countries to achieve their determined contributions to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases under the Paris Agreement. Making use of the capacity building and policy support, the services of the Unit foster transformation in manufacturing concerning technologies used in refrigeration, air conditioning and insulation with the effect of a reduction and change in working fluids and chemicals and ultimately a reduction of total greenhouse gas emissions.

**PROJECT CONTEXT**

The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer is an international treaty that aims to protect the ozone layer by eliminating the production and consumption of ozone-depleting substances (ODS). Established in 1987 under the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer, this agreement has been ratified by 197 States (Parties). In 1990, the Parties of the Montreal Protocol established the Multilateral Fund for the Implementation of the Montreal Protocol (MLF) to finance “non
- repayable” projects to enable developing countries to meet their commitments under the Protocol.

The incumbent will contribute to the efforts of the Montreal Protocol Division of the Technical Cooperation and Sustainable Industrial Development Department in connection with operational delivery and the design and implementation of innovative solutions. Specially, the incumbent will assist the Montreal Protocol Division with support on Montreal Protocol and Kigali Amendment projects as well as the project funded by GEF, GCF and other potential donors, including
- HCFCs phase-out management plan projects (HPMPs),
- Institutional strengthening projects,
- Kigali Amendment HFCs phase-down management plan projects (KIPs),
- Pilot projects to maintain and/or enhance energy efficiency of replacement technologies and
- equipment in the context of HFC phase-down;
- Maintaining energy efficiency in t
