Supply – Local TA Roster 2023-24 (Hungary)

Job Requisition Type

Evergreen (Formerly known as talent pools, in order to have a balanced number of ready-to-hire candidates who can be deployed at short notice to a vacancy that best matches their skills. Evergreens are primarily used to fill Temporary Appointments.)

Current UNHCR staff members holding an Indefinite or Fixed-term Appointment in the international professional category who are looking for Internal Temporary Assignment (ITA) opportunities – instead of applying to an Evergreen profile – should contact the Emergency and Temporary Staffing Unit.

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is mandated to lead and co-ordinate international action to protect refugees worldwide and find durable solutions for them. Established in 1950, its primary purpose is to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees. It strives to ensure that everyone can exercise the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge in another State, until they can return home voluntarily, integrate locally or to resettle in a third country. Today over 20,000 personnel work in 135 countries helping and protecting millions of refugees, returnees, internally displaced and stateless people.

The Global Service Centre with over 500 staff members from 80 countries supports UNHCR’s global operations in the area of HR, Finance, Accounting, Supply, Procurement, Learning and ICT from Budapest. 

We provide an exciting and diverse work environment where people of multiple professional, academic and cultural backgrounds contribute to our global efforts to protect people forced to flee.
