Short-Term International Professionals & Consultancies

WFP employs short-term International Professionals and functional consultants largely for emergency situations.

Specifically, short-term staff are employed to support the regular work of the Programme for a limited period –between 3 and 11 months.  Functional consultants are employed for a limited period – not to exceed 11 months – to provide expert advice in a specialized field not readily available to the organisation. Consultants may also be employed on a temporary basis to perform staff functions when staff resources are not immediately available for emergency or operational areas.

We encourage you to register your application with us by creating your Online CV.  Your CV will then be maintained in our recruitment database and should there be an employment opportunity for which you meet the qualifications, the Manager concerned will contact you directly.
