WHO CAN APPLY?
Consultants operating in any of the Niger Delta States are encouraged to apply, especially those with experience in implementing Peacebuilding projects.
The consultant should have a minimum of six years of national/international professional experience in providing similar peacebuilding services to either public or private institutions. They must be familiar with standards and guidelines for engaging with traditional institutions, security agencies, government parastatals, and the youth.
Other strengths include managing teams – particularly remote management and field teams in a challenging environment- exercising sound judgment, remaining flexible to a changing climate, and making decisions independently concerning corporate and client interests.
There will be an additional consideration for consultants based in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, and Delta. We will give special attention to any consultant who understands the recommended approach (see pages 3-5 of the TOR) in expressing ideas in their proposal. Furthermore, the consultants must be ready and available to work alongside a technical team from PIND that comprises experts in Peacebuilding and Planning, Monitoring & Evaluation (PM&E).
All P4P organizational members are encouraged to apply.
Consultants that meet the specifications above should forward their profile and technical proposal with a detailed work plan, monitoring and evaluation plan, and budget by email and other mandatory and supporting documents to procurement@pindfoundation.org. The email subject should be ‘Peacebuilding Proposal _ State of Interest.’
