How will selection decisions be made under the new mobility and career development framework?

Selection recommendations for both vacant positions and reassignment options will be made by “Job Network Boards”[1]. These will be composed of senior managers in the respective Job Networks. The Boards will be supported by Network Staffing Teams, which will include both human resources staff and staff with expertise in that Network.

The Boards’ recommendations will be guided by organizational priorities, such as moving staff from non-family duty stations to family duty stations; moving staff between duty stations; moving staff amongst Departments and Offices.. As is the case today, due consideration will be given to gender, geographical status, and representation of troop- and police-contributing countries.

Staff representatives will serve as observers on the Job Network Boards.


[1] A Job Network is a grouping of job families with closely linked mandates or programmes of work and which require similar skill sets.
