The Organisation

The Ministry of Finance and Economic Management (MFEM) is the central authority within the Government of Vanuatu (GoV) that governs and oversights budgeting and expenditure of public funds. This significant mandate paves the way for MFEM to address, develop, implement and advocate for required Public Finance and Economic Management (PFEM) reforms as and when, legally and contextually and appropriate. A Public Expenditure and Financial Accountability (PEFA) self-assessment conducted in 2015 identified a number of areas for ongoing work led by MFEM, which has formed the basis of a PFM Roadmap that development partners are supporting.

The Position

The Public Financial Management Advisor will be based full-time in the newly formed Corporate Services Unit at MFEM and will provide strategic advice to the Director General. The PFM Advisor will be engaged with MFEM for a period of 1 year with the opportunity for a 1-year extension. The PFM Advisor will focus on various activities, including:

1. Providing technical advisory services to MFEM

2. Supporting other potentially transformative and emergent PFM reform opportunities

3. Providing technical advisory services to DG MFEM and Development Partners as required

4. Supporting PFM coordination activities"
