During the recruitment process, we assess candidates based on the competency framework. Familiarize yourself with our competency framework and its different levels.

UNICEF is committed to diversity and inclusion in its workforce and encourages all candidates, regardless of gender, nationality, religion, or ethnic origin, and people with disabilities, to apply. To foster a more inclusive work environment, UNICEF offers paid parental leave, breastfeeding breaks, and reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities. UNICEF strongly encourages the use of flexible working arrangements. Learn more here.

According to the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD), persons with disabilities are those who have long-term physical, mental, intellectual, or sensory impairments that, when combined with various barriers, may impede their full and effective participation in society on an equal basis. In its Disability Inclusion Policy and Strategy 2022-2030, UNICEF has committed to increasing the number of employees with disabilities by 2030. UNICEF provides reasonable accommodations to support the employment needs of candidates and employees with disabilities. It has also launched a Global Accessibility Help Desk to strengthen physical and digital accessibility. If you are an applicant with a disability who requires digital assistance to complete the online application, please apply through the accessibility button on the UNICEF Careers page.

UNICEF does not employ individuals married to minors (people under the age of 18). UNICEF maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward conduct inconsistent with the aims and purposes of the United Nations and UNICEF, including sexual exploitation and abuse, sexual harassment, abuse of authority, and discrimination based on gender, nationality, age, race, sexual orientation, religion, ethnic origin, or disability. UNICEF promotes the protection and safeguarding of all children. All selected candidates will undergo rigorous reference and background checks and must adhere to these standards and principles. Background checks will include verification of academic credentials and employment history. Selected candidates may be asked to provide additional information to conduct these checks, and those with disabilities may confidentially submit supporting documentation.

OBSERVATIONS

UNICEF appointments are subject to medical clearance. Visa issuance by the host country, facilitated by UNICEF, is required for international positions (IP). Vaccination requirements, including vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19), are also required. If selected, you must be vaccinated as required or have a medical exemption from the relevant UN department. Failure to do so will result in your selection being cancelled.

Government employees considered for employment with UNICEF must resign from their position before taking up the position. UNICEF reserves the right to withdraw an offer of appointment without compensation if a visa or medical clearance is not obtained, or if vaccination requirements are not met within a reasonable period, for any reason.
