The UNDP Bratislava Regional Centre periodically needs the services of editors to edit texts in Russian. The texts are typically translations from English and regard the following topics: democratic governance, poverty reduction, environment and energy, crisis prevention and recovery, gender, HIV/AIDS, capacity development. The Regional Centre currently aims to build a roster of Russian language editors from which it can draw to fulfill a variety of short-term, freelance assignments during the year. Assignments will be carried out remotely; work will be submitted through the internet. | |

Evaluation of Applicants: Applicants will be evaluated based upon experience, education, areas of expertise, and hourly fee. A written test will be administered to short-listed candidates. UNDP applies the ‘Best Value for Money’ Approach - final selection will be based on applicants’ qualifications, written test and financial proposal. Contracting Arrangements: Successful candidates will be placed on the Roster of Editors for a period of 3 years. Placement on the roster does not guarantee a contract. This will depend on UNDP’s future needs. When a request for services is made, UNDP will contract the consultant directly based on need. A Terms of Reference (ToR) outlining each assignment will be provided, and an Individual Contract (IC) will be issued detailing the time frame. Conditions of a particular assignment may be negotiable. Payments: Payments will be made upon UNDP confirmation of satisfactory performance. Application procedures: Qualified candidates are requested to apply online via this website. The application should contain:
Qualified women and members of minorities are encouraged to apply. Due to large number of applications we receive, we are able to inform only the successful candidates about the outcome or status of the selection process. | |
UNDP is committed to achieving workforce diversity in terms of gender, nationality and culture. Individuals from minority groups, indigenous groups and persons with disabilities are equally encouraged to apply. All applications will be treated with the strictest confidence. |
