Background

The UN General Assembly has outlined the need for the UN to pursue more cost-efficient support services by reducing the duplication of functions and administrative and transaction costs. The UN’s efficiency agenda includes the following key workstreams for country-level implementation: Business Operations Strategy (BOS), a framework guiding UN business operations at the country level, which reflects all common services that make economic sense to be developed and executed jointly by UN agencies; Common Back Office, a country level service center consisting of a team of dedicated staff who serve all UN agencies and are responsible for the implementation of some or all the common services reflected in the BOS; and Common Premises, entailing increasing co-location of two or more resident UN entities present in a country.

As one of the eight countries to pilot the UN Delivering as One reform, the UN in Tanzania, under the leadership of the UN Resident Coordinator, has in many ways been a forerunner in developing new ways of working together. Tanzania was among the first countries, where a BOS was developed and is now among the first group of countries where a Common Back Office will be rolled out. This is accompanied by new work on Common Premises, which is starting with a comprehensive interagency stocktaking process scheduled to be completed by February 2022.

To support the implementation of the UN’s efficiency agenda in Tanzania and to strengthen the UN Resident Coordinator Office’s (RCO) overall capacity in business operations, the RCO is recruiting a national Business Operations and Coordination Analyst in Tanzania.
