Project Information:
The project is located in Angola with an approximate team of 12 Staff. The project goal is to implement infrastructure for smallholder Agriculture development composed of markets and irrigation schemes.

Local Context: UNOPS has recently opened an office of permanent representation in Angola.

Sustainability is a key part of UNOPS strategic plan for the Angola Office. Therefore, improving Environmental Management performance by preventing or mitigating adverse impacts on the environment will support sustainability efficiency in delivering projects.

UNOPS is implementing an Environmental and Social Management System (ESMS) aligned to the ISO 14001 standard to help identify and mitigate environmental impacts of its operations.

With this system, UNOPS intends to manage its environmental risks and impacts throughout the life cycle of projects in a systematic manner that leads to continuous improvement and development of local capacity.

Therefore, UNOPS intends to extend the application of the ESMS to all its operations and embed ESMS as a part of normal value creation in the UNOPS business cycle.

Additionally, UNOPS complies with the environmental policies and frameworks of its partners including several multilateral and bilateral donor institutions, governments and other stakeholders.

To ensure compliance with UNOPS own HSE systems and policies, environmental safeguards and policies of partners, UNOPS requires support from qualified Environment Specialists on a retainer basis.

The Environment Senior Analyst will be responsible for identifying interactions of the project with the environment, defining the associated impacts of these interactions and proposing mitigation measures as well as protocols for implementing them.

He/she/them may also be engaged in monitoring and reporting on UNOPS ESMS.

The Environment Senior Analyst will be responsible for assisting UNOPS to adopt and make use of the UNOPS ESMS and ensure compliance with stakeholder requirements including policies and frameworks of bilateral and multilateral donor agencies.

This will involve translations of all environment safeguard policies, requirements and laws into actionable mitigation options and operational documents and the development of plans for implementation of actions.

The Environment Senior Analyst is also expected to support the UNOPS Team with the revision of existing Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIAs) and Environmental and Social Management Plans (ESMPs), and any related tasks, as well as the implementation and monitoring of the safeguards instruments. The consultants will be prepared to travel to any site in or around Angola.

The Health, Safety, Social and Environmental Senior Analyst will report to the Senior Project Manager.

The post is based in Luanda but may change to other locations within Angola depending on project needs.
