**Background**:
UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

The Policy, Programme and Intergovernmental Division develops and implements the UN Women program of work on normative, analysis, research, operational and knowledge management that supports the advice and guidance UN Women provides to the intergovernmental process, the UN system, and to UN Women country and regional offices. The Division is organized in thematic sections, which undertake policy research; analyze data on country, regional or global trends; and propose evidence-based options for global policy, norms and standards and for UN Women global programme strategies, policy advocacy, and flagship programmes. In support of UN Women’s normative and coordination mandates, the Division also undertakes substantive preparations for the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW) and drafts reports on behalf of the Secretary-General on multiple topics. With the adoption of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, UN Women is supporting the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) towards achieving gender equality and women's economic empowerment by 2030 to benefit all women in the world, leaving no woman behind. UN Women works in partnership with governments, multilateral organizations, the UN System, civil society organizations and the private sector.

Economic empowerment is one of the priority areas of UN Women. UN Women works with governments and partners to promote women’s economic empowerment and increase their access to economic opportunities and outcomes, especially for those who are most excluded, including women migrant workers. In 2018, the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration was adopted by UN Member States. And as the blueprint for the governance and coordination of international migration, it is critical that gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls are central in its implementation. UN Women works to help ensure that migrant women’s human and labour rights are effectively promoted and protected at all stages of migration, and that the Global Compact for Migration is human rights-based and gender-responsive.

Since 2019, UN Women has been implementing the Germany-funded Making Migration Safe for Women programme globally and country programmes in Niger (2019-2023) and Ethiopia (2023-2025) with the goal of ensuring that international norms and standards for protecting and promoting migrant women’s rights are strengthened and the development and implementation of national migration policies and laws are gender-responsive. The programme has also improved the collection, analysis and use of sex-disaggregated data and gender statistics to provide robust evidence that informs national policy making. Starting in January 2025, the programme will expand to include UN Women’s South Africa Multi-Country Office, which will host the Global Coordinator.

Under the supervision of the Policy Advisor, Sustainable Development, Economic Empowerment HQ, the Global Coordinator will be responsible for the management and implementation of the Making Migration Safe for Women global programme and will contribute to UN Women’s normative, coordination, and operational mandate in the area of gender equality and migration.

**Key Functions and Accountabilities**:
**1 Manage the overall management and implementation of the Making Migration Safe for Women (MMSfW) programme**
- Prepare annual workplans and budgets and manage their implementation;
- Manage the technical implementation of the programme; provide technical advice; ensure synergies with other teams;
- Review the submission of implementing partner financial and narrative reports as required;
