REGIONAL ADVISER, MCH, UNICEF/ROSA, KATHMANDU, P 5

Thursday, 16th of May 2013

I am writing to ask you to flag this recruitment in your esteemed digital organ. It really is a nice job, possibly the overall best I ever had. With only 8 countries to address, albeit some mighty big and challenging ones, it is possible to master the context and  be a real regional resource. And most people really like living in Kathmandu.

I should explain that applications closed on 10 April and the post is no longer showing on our eRecruit system – so potential candidates should contact:

Stephen Adkisson
Deputy Regional Director
UNICEF Regional Office for South Asia

I imagine you will want to decide on the presentation format. Here are the essentials.
