<p><strong>Tiered Approach</strong></p><br> <p>In line with the commitment to safeguard capacity and support personnel already in the Organization, a majority of UNDP UNCDF/UNV vacancies are advertised using a tiered application process whereby:</p><br> <ul> <li><strong>Tier 0</strong>: UNDP/UNCDF/UNV IP staff holding permanent (PA) and fixed-term (FTA) appointments, whose posts will be abolished, or contracts will be terminated or not renewed during 2026.</li> <li><strong>Tier 1</strong>: Other UNDP/UNCDF/UNV staff holding permanent (PA) and fixed-term (FTA) appointments</li> <li><strong>Tier 2</strong>: UNDP/UNCDF/UNV staff holding temporary appointments (TA), personnel on regular PSA contracts, and Expert and Specialist UN Volunteers</li> <li><strong>Tier 3 or no tier indicated</strong>: All other contract types from UNDP/UNCDF/UNV and other agencies, and other external candidates</li> </ul> <p>Please make note of the Tier(s) indicated in the vacancy title, if any, and ensure that you satisfy the eligibility to apply.</p><br> <p><strong>Background</strong></p><br> <p>The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Country Office in the Kingdom of Bahrain operates within the context of a high-income, net-contributing country, where UNDP engagement is fully funded through government cost-sharing and aligned with national development priorities. Bahrain is implementing an ambitious national reform agenda under <strong>Bahrain Vision 2030</strong> and the <strong>Government Programme (2023–2026)</strong>, with a strong focus on economic diversification, fiscal sustainability, effective governance, environmental resilience, digital transformation, and inclusive human development. As a net contributor country, UNDP Bahrain maintains a lean operational footprint while delivering high-value technical assistance, policy advisory services, and innovation-driven solutions in support of national priorities.</p><br> <p>UNDP Bahrain’s programme is guided by the <strong>Country Programme Document (CPD) 2025–2029</strong>, approved by the UNDP Executive Board in January 2025, and is fully aligned with the <strong>United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2025–2029</strong>. The CPD positions UNDP as a trusted strategic partner to the Government of Bahrain, contributing to UNSDCF outcomes through integrated, multi-sectoral interventions that address complex development challenges at the intersection of economic prosperity, governance and human rights, and environmental sustainability. Under the <strong>Country Programme Document (CPD) 2025–2029</strong>, UNDP Bahrain’s engagement is structured around <strong>three interrelated CPD pillars</strong>:</p><br> <p>(i) <strong>Economic prosperity and sustainable livelihoods</strong>;<br> (ii) <strong>Effective governance, human rights, and access to justice</strong>; and<br> (iii) <strong>Environmental sustainability and climate resilience</strong>.</p><br> <p><br> These pillars reflect national priorities under Bahrain Vision 2030 and the Government Programme (2023–2026), and constitute UNDP’s substantive contribution to the implementation of the <strong>United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2025–2029</strong>.</p><br> <p>To ensure coherence, integration, and efficient delivery within a lean Country Office structure, the Bahrain CO operationalizes the three CPD pillars through <strong>two integrated programme clusters</strong>. The first cluster brings together <strong>Economic Prosperity and Environmental Sustainability; and environmental sustainability and governance, human rights, access to justice, and social inclusion. </strong></p><br> <p>The second cluster focuses on <strong>governance, human rights, access to justice, and social inclusion</strong>, encompassing rule of law, public sector effectiveness, civic engagement, gender equality, and protection of vulnerable groups. This cluster supports national institutions in strengthening accountability, service delivery, and compliance with international human rights standards, while promoting inclusive participation and social cohesion.</p><br> <p>This <strong>two-cluster delivery model</strong> enables the Country Office to manage complexity, promote synergies across CPD pillars, and apply a portfolio approach to programme design, implementation, and partnerships. Staff are therefore expected to work across thematic boundaries, contribute to integrated solutions, and support joint programming within the UN system, while ensuring results-based management, quality assurance, and alignment with national and UNSDCF priorities.</p><br> <p><strong>Duties and Responsibilities</strong></p><br> <p><strong><u>Summary of key functions </u></strong></p><br> <p>Under the overall guidance of Program Analyst (<strong>governance, human rights, access to justice, and social inclusion cluster)</strong>, the National Project Coordinatorwill:</p><br> <ul> <li>Ensuring effective project management of the assigned project by maintaining the delivery of appropriate technical, operational, financial and administrative outputs, while tracking the project progress by monitoring, evaluation and reporting;</li> <li>Provide advisory support on climate resilience and river basin management issues to the Government and other partners;</li> <li>Build the strategic partnerships needed to achieve results;</li> <li>Align the project with UN values and UNDP priorities;
