The USAID Mission in Ukraine develops and implements U.S. assistance programs for Ukraine and Belarus. USAID/Ukraine partners with Ukrainian citizens, civil society, media, and government to help Ukraine resist Russia’s full-scale invasion, promote transparent and effective recovery processes, and support reforms to integrate Ukraine further into Europe. The Project Management Specialist (PMS) works in the Office of Democracy and Governance (ODG), one of the Mission’s three Kyiv-based technical offices, under the supervision of the Office Director or their designee. ODG plans, monitors, and evaluates a large, dynamic portfolio of contracts and cooperative agreements spanning some of the country’s highest-priority reform, recovery, and reintegration issues. The PMS will work in ODG under the supervision of the Office Director or their designee.

The principal role of the PMS is to design, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of ODG activities supporting civil society, civic engagement, and/or accountable and transparent governance and political processes. The incumbent will serve as a Contracting or Agreement Officer’s Representative (COR/AOR) for one or more complex activities implemented primarily by U.S. non-governmental organizations and/or Ukrainian civil society organizations and will be a lead advisor to the Mission on localization and working directly with Ukrainian organizations. This role requires excellent project management and communication skills, flexibility, and ability to engage across USAID teams and with Ukrainian civic and Government of Ukraine (GOU) stakeholders. The incumbent has direct, substantive contacts with host country government officials, media counterparts and political party and civil society representatives, presenting and coordinating democracy and governance programs with them, as well as U.S. Embassy and other donors active in democracy and governance issues.
