In its Resolution A/RES/72/279, the United Nations General Assembly endorsed the transformation of the Development Operations Coordination Office (DCO) as a stand-alone coordination office within the United Nations Secretariat. The new DCO assumes managerial and oversight functions of the Resident Coordinator system under the collective ownership of the members of the United Nations Sustainable Development Group (UNSDG). The Country Business Strategies team (CBSS) located within the Business Management Branch of DCO, serves as the secretariat to the UNSDG Business Innovation Group (BIG), which leads the work on advancing system-wide efficiencies. The main goal of this position is to ensure effective support by DCO to the BIG in operationalizing the system-wide Efficiency Roadmap, which guides the UNSDG to deliver on the requests outlined in the General Assembly resolutions and the Secretary General report. The current roadmap includes the following workstreams: • Business Operations Strategy (BOS): To support UN entities with BOS implementation, to deliver regular updates on the projected cost savings, and standardize and scale the highest-impact services between 2021 and 2024. • Global Shared Services: To fast-track the implementation of services identified in the Roadmap for scale-up by the UN system • Common Back Office (CBO): Establish Common Back Offices for the 50 largest non-crisis UN country teams • Common Premises: Expand Common Premises in the 66 highest cost locations. A new roadmap beyond 2024, which will include updated targets and ways of working, will be prepared by the BIG in the second half of 2024. The position is located at the United Nations Development Coordination Office (UNDCO) Headquarters in New York and reports to the Chief Business Management Branch.
