The process should be consultative and inclusive, ensuring the participation of all office staff and empowerment of all management levels.How can you make a difference?In recent years, the global surge in children’s needs has significantly increased the demand for financial resources. However, recent reductions in Official Development Assistance (ODA) from several traditional partners highlight the urgent need to safeguard and strengthen the capacity of UNICEF and its partners to continue delivering essential services to children. The current trajectory of ODA suggests a more constrained humanitarian and development funding environment in the short to medium term.Over the past five years, UNICEF Venezuela has significantly expanded its operations across the country, addressing the needs of children and advocating for their rights in multiple regions. Considering the global funding downturn, the office must now prioritize its core activities and ensure that its workforce is optimally aligned with its strategic objectives.To support this transition, UNICEF Venezuela is recruiting an Organizational Development Consultant to lead a functional review and skills gap analysis of the office structure. This initiative is a key component of the September 2025 Programme Budget Review (PBR) and aligns with UNICEF’s global Future Focus Initiative, which emphasizes efficiency and innovation.

It ensures that all colleagues are collectively consulted and well-informed about the progress of this exercise.
