Background
IOG is currently implementing the “Citizen Centricity and Participation” project, which aims to proactively implement actionable insights obtained from a previous assessment. The primary goal of this initiative is to enhance the quality of citizen-centric service delivery and increase citizen engagement at the local level, especially in public projects. The ultimate outcome aspires to cultivate governance that is more comprehensive, streamlined, and responsive.
Objective
We’re searching for a capable Operations Consultant to work on “Citizen Centricity and Participation” project in Iraq. This assignment strives to improve citizen engagement and service delivery in specific administrative regions. The project’s objectives are twofold:
Scope of work
The Operations Consultant is expected to ensure control in event planning and logistics, manage allowances distribution and financial transactions, uphold financial guidelines, facilitate seamless communication before and during events, oversee vendor contracts, support procurement, and utilize technology for efficient event planning and documentation.
Specific tasks will be as follows:
Compensation
Compensation is based on the standard working day in Iraq, comprising 8 hours according to local practice. The anticipated daily rate ranges from US $180.00 to US $200.00, but the final rate will be decided based on qualifications and experience. This daily rate covers allowances for personal car usage, local transportation, internet, phone, computer, and all daily expenses, acknowledging the challenges posed by the assignment’s location.
This service contract operates on a daily rate payment structure. The agreement entails compensation for work completed, without fringe benefits or paid allowable time off. The terms of this service agreement adhere to GIZ’s financial guidelines and regulations for Grant Agreements.
Invoices and timesheets shall be submitted and duly signed by the Operations Consultant. Timesheets must specify the type of work performed, connected to the designated project task, and the daily hours worked, excluding commuting time to work locations within the home-base province.
The salary is based on a maximum of 160 working days for a 10-month period.
Reimbursables
Reimbursable expenses pertain to actual costs incurred, aligning with financial guidelines and the travel policy in Iraq. Expenses for hotel accommodation, meals, and transportation within Iraq will be reimbursed when traveling to provinces other than one’s home province. Claims for reimbursement must be accompanied by valid receipts, with hotel receipts submitted promptly after payment.
For domestic flights, air transportation expenses should be booked via the most economical and direct route, with economy class as the standard option. Boarding passes or airline ticket stubs must be attached to flight expense claims. In the case of e-tickets, the invoice and boarding passes, if available, should be included in the expense claim.
Adhering to GIZ’s financial guidelines, expenses exceeding US$1,000.00 require the collection of a minimum of three offers for comparison, ensuring a cost-effective choice that provides optimal value for money. It is the contractor’s responsibility to obtain these offers and seek approval. The selected option proceeds upon receiving endorsement from the supervisor.
Contractual Conditions
Successful candidate shall be contracted by a local service provider of the IOG. Hence, he/she has no employment relationship with IOG.
