Tenders Are Invited For Audit And Oversight Advisory Committee Members

Tenders are invited for Audit and Oversight Advisory Committee Members The Audit and Oversight Advisory Committee (AOAC) is an independent, expert advisory and oversight body established to report to IOM Member States on the appropriateness and effectiveness of oversight, risk management and internal controls at IOM and assist the Director General in fulfilling oversight responsibilities. The Committee comprises five members, ensuring appropriate geographical distribution, gender balance, range of skills and expertise. AOAC Members discharge their functions independently in a non-executive capacity, upholding the highest standards of integrity and professionalism, while prioritising the interests of the Organization. They shall not seek or accept instructions from any external or internal government or authority, except from the Director General and the governing bodies. They shall not have held a position with IOM for a consecutive two-year period prior to appointment, nor hold any position or engage in any activity that could impair their independence from IOM or entities maintaining a business or institutional relationship with the Organization, in fact or perception, while serving on the Committee. The selected members serve for three years, renewable once. Applicants must have the appropriate skills, knowledge and experience to fulfil their functions, particularly recent, relevant senior-level managerial, financial, audit or other oversight-related experience and competencies, e.g. investigation, evaluation or legal affairs. Knowledge of the United Nations structure and functioning and other intergovernmental organizations is highly desirable. AOAC meetings and reports are in English. Service on the AOAC is without remuneration; however, members travelling to attend Committee sessions (normally held three times per year in Geneva, Switzerland), shall receive a daily allowance and be reimbursed for travel expenses incurred, in accordance with IOM procedures.
