Chief of Party, Counterpart Alliance in Ukraine (To be appointed)
Counterpart will lead a consortium of three PVOs working in Ukraine. The
Chief of Party will have primary responsibility for the start-up and overall
management of the multi-million dollar consortium project designed to
"develop and strengthen indigenous NGOs to provide social services to
vulnerable groups" in Ukraine. (This includes the supervision of all partner
PVOs and sub-grantees.) This person will set-up a primary office in Kiev and
satellite activity offices in two other major cities, hire local field
representatives, and explore the feasibility of using Peace Corps volunteers.
Within the first quarter, a workplan must be drawn up after consultation
with the U.S. PVO partners for the first and second years of the project and
submitted to USAID/Kiev for review and approval. The workplan will include
an assessment of the current NGO legal and regulatory environment, a plan of
action for reform, and a plan for U.S. based training for designated
candidates (after consultation with USAID and the USAID/NET Project).
The Chief of Party will work closely with indigenous NGOs nationwide,
including: identifying and tracking social service and public policy NGOs;
developing a comprehensive training and technical assistance program that
could lead to their sustained growth; organizing conferences, networking
meetings, and roundtables; and introducing mechanisms to broaden NGO
management and sustainability. This person will develop eligibility criteria
from small seed-grants and corporate matching grants to indigenous NGOs and
will oversee the grant program. This person will generally work to ensure
progress towards achieving activity objectives and to improve public
attitudes towards NGOs.
