Request for Proposal for Provision of Emergency Coordinator services for 8 months for Papua New Guinea Country Office to assist with Emergency Relief efforts in Earthquake affected areas

Time zone: (GMT 11.00) Eastern Australia, Guam, Vladivostok
Description:

Provision of Emergency Coordinator services for 8 months for Papua New Guinea Country Office to assist with Emergency Relief efforts in Earthquake affected areas (Southern Highlands and Hela) in the Highlands
Background
On 26 February 2018, a 7.5 magnitude earthquake hit the Highlands Region of Papua New Guinea (PNG) affecting around 544, 000 people in Enga, Gulf, Hela, Southern Highlands and Western provinces. Of the 544, 000 people, more than 270, 000 people were estimated to be in immediate need of life-saving assistance. Over the next five weeks, around 200 earthquakes (of up to 6.5 magnitude) and aftershocks have occurred, causing yet more damage and keeping the population in a high state of anxiety. Many people have remained in rough communal shelters, fearful of returning to their land, which in some cases was split open, in other cases, covered by landslides. While numbers fluctuate, around 18, 200 displaced people are staying in informal shelters. Around 54, 000 homes are estimated to be damaged to the point of not being usable.
UNICEF PNG is a small office, located in Port Moresby with no field offices. There were no ongoing projects or activities in the earthquake affected areas before the disaster. The earthquake response represents a significant expansion and rapid scaling up for the Office, in terms of new locations, new partners, and an unplanned large infusion of funds with short durations.
There is insufficient existing staff capacity to direct and manage the six emergency projects, do financial and programme assurance and reporting, and coordinate new partners and well as deployments of staff, surge staff and consultants.
Therefore, UNICEF Papua New Guinea wants to hire an experienced emergency Coordinator for eight months, taking the Office through the expected duration of the emergency funding and projects, including the closure and reporting period.
The contractor/consultant as the Emergency Coordinator will be engaged for eight (8) months and will be responsible in supporting the UNICEF Papua New Guinea Country Office through the expected duration of the emergency funding and projects; including the closure and reporting period. This support is needed because there is insufficient existing staff capacity to direct and manage the six emergency projects, do financial and programme assurance and reporting, and coordinate new partners and well as deployments of staff, surge staff and consultants.
Objective
The contractor/consultant as the Emergency Coordinator will be working in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea with frequent missions to Hela Province (based out of Tari) and Southern Highlands Province (based out of Mendi.) Some travel to Mt Hagen and to other earthquake affected provinces may be required.
Contract duration: Start May 8th 2018 & End date 31 December 2018
All activities and tasks and deliverables are ongoing throughout the employment period. Therefore, rather than being linked to specific deliverables, payments will be tied to ongoing submission of reports and certification that the activities are being successfully carried out.
