PFMCBP is a five-year technical assistance program supported by a grant from the International Development Association and a co-financing Multi-Donor Trust Fund. This five-year Program started in late 2006, and is expected to be extended to December 2012. PFMCBP provides technical assistance to strengthen planning, budgeting, public expenditure management and revenue administration for growth and poverty reduction, with emphasis on efficiency, effectiveness, accountability, integrity, service culture, and transparency. </span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#545454'>Early capacity building initiatives undertaken by the Government focused on getting the public financial management system up and running. With such focus, the system that was established remains heavily reliant on the presence of international advisers, who have largely focused on in-line performance and, to a limited extent, on the transfer of skills. From 2007 onwards a more focused approach on capacity-building was implemented. This is being pursued to emphasis the substitution of international for local or regional expertise. </span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#545454'>In August 2009, the Ministry of Finance embarked on a process to redeploy its own staff in line with the functions of its new structure as defined in Decree Law no 12 of 2009. An important step towards this is to complete the staff needs mapping for every work unit within MoF, identify position requirements and develop job descriptions/persons specifications for each position. The adviser is expected to play a lead role in the development of job descriptions and person specifications. The adviser will also support efforts by the PFMCBP to identify specific areas in which external expertise will be needed for the extended program post June 2011.<br> </span><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='page-break-after:avoid'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#545454'>Duties and Responsibilities <u> </u></span><u><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></u></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;text-align:justify'><i><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#545454'>Core functions: </span></i><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";color:#545454'><o:p></o:p></span></p><ul style='margin-top:0cm' type=disc><li class=MsoNormal style='color:black;text-align:justify;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Support the DHRM to provide assistance to other Directorates within MoF in completing their staff mapping needs and fill in the persons specification forms;</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:black;text-align:justify;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Support the MoF in identifying specific TA needs that may be required post June 2011.</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:black;text-align:justify;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Support the MoF in undertaking a comprehensive job analysis within the Ministry of Finance to determine human resources capacity gaps that could be supported with external international and national technical assistance.</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:black;text-align:justify;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Support the DHRM to assist National Directorates to prepare staff development plans consistent with the Ministries strategic planning framework;</span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'> </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></li><li class=MsoNormal style='color:black;text-align:justify;mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Liaise with the PDP implementation officer to identify training needs for each staff, and support the implementation of training programs.</span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></li></ul><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt;text-align:justify;text-autospace:ideograph-numeric'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tw Cen MT","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#545454'>The Complete job description is available at: <span class=generaltext> <a href="http://devnetjobs.tripod.com/3march2011-advisor-timor-leste.html">http://devnetjobs.tripod.com/3march2011-advisor-timor-leste.html</a></span></span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best regards,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Jessica Matthews<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Outreach Coordinator<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>DevNetJobs.org<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="http://www.devnetjobs.org/">www.DevNetJobs.org </a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>------<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Follow our job tweets: <a href="http://twitter.com/devnetjobs">http://twitter.com/devnetjobs</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
