New York, New York, United States UNICEF - United Nations Children's Fund Full time

UNICEF works in over 190 countries and territories to save children's lives, defend their rights, and help them fulfill their potential, from early childhood through adolescence.

At UNICEF, we are committed, passionate, and proud of what we do. Promoting the rights of every child is not just a job – it is a calling.

UNICEF is a place where careers are built: we offer our staff diverse opportunities for personal and professional development that will help them develop a fulfilling career while delivering on a rewarding mission.

We pride ourselves on a culture that helps staff thrive, coupled with an attractive compensation and benefits package.

Visit [our website]) to learn more about what we do at UNICEF.

For every child, Protection
UNICEF is the leading humanitarian and development agency working globally for the rights of every child.

Child rights begin with safe shelter, nutrition, protection from disaster and conflict and traverse the life cycle:
pre-natal care for healthy births, clean water and sanitation, health care and education. UNICEF has spent nearly 70 years working to improve the lives of children and their families.

Working with and for children through adolescence and into adulthood requires a global presence whose goal is to produce results and monitor their effects.

UNICEF also lobbies and partners with leaders, thinkers and policy makers to help all children realize their rights—especially the most disadvantaged.


In an effort to measurably improve UNICEF's ability to deliver better results for children, and to also support the Human Resources reforms, the Division of Human Resources (DHR) is embarking on a transformational process in a number of key areas, including streamlined and efficient talent acquisition, strategic HR business partnering, and results-focused performance management and career development.
