Baku/04.03.19/Turan: UNDP is hiring creative talent to join a groundbreaking network of Accelerator Labs in 60 countries to re-imagine development
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is creating the fastest learning, rapidly expanding and the largest global network of Accelerator Labs in 60 countries around the world aiming to boost sustainable development and design the new generation of solutions to the most pressing issues of our time. This is reported by the UNDP office in Azerbaijan.
The Accelerator Lab approach is UNDP"s investment in better tackling most critical and challenging risk, such as inequality, unemployment, or technological change. It"s a new way to accelerate impact by providing the capability to learn about what works and what doesn"t in an uncertain policy space in weeks or months rather than years. The idea is to transform our collective approach by introducing new protocols backed by evidence and practice. For more information on the UNDP Accelerator Labs, please visit the global Accelerator Lab Webpage.
The UNDP Country Office in Azerbaijan is among 6 country offices of UNDP across the Commonwealth of Independent States and Europe to become an Accelerator Lab, or AccLab shortly. In each of these countries, UNDP is creating excellent job opportunities for local people with outstanding skills and talent to contribute to a new future.
Globally, UNDP is hiring 180 Heads of Exploration, Heads of Experimentation and Heads of Solutions Mapping for its 60 country offices. In Azerbaijan, the UN Development Programme has announced three openings for these roles and is inviting all interested candidates to use this opportunity to contribute to the country"s development agenda by applying for the advertised positions no later than 11 March 2019.
The new team of experimentation, exploitation and solutions mapping professionals that UNDP is looking for should be open to discovery and capable of articulating insights and ideas through visual thinking.
Having superb competencies in program and portfolio management, the three new roles require the applicants to be at ease with decision-making processes and dynamics of different models of governance.
Put simply, Heads of Experimentation, Exploration and Solutions Mapping should be extremely curious, quirky and fun people in general. UNDP is looking for those who are seen as visionary enthusiasts, strategic thinkers and talented designers. Their highly demanding roles within the new Accelerator Labs will require them to understand systems, the good, the bad and the ugly, and be capable of working within bureaucracies to make change, leverage technology to extend, enhance and multiply exploration, discovery and execution.
Interested candidates who wish to join the UNDP AccLab in Azerbaijan, should apply following the links below:
