The ILO is looking to build a roster of consultants who can provide ad-hoc web content editing services.
As the ILO prepares to launch its new website with improved functionalities and user experience, this pool of certified consultants will help ensure that ILO content is easy to access and read, and that is kept up to date and relevant for ILO audiences.
The roster will also help addressing urgent needs for web editing services in a more efficient manner.
Interested consultants are invited to submit their application on-line for preselection in order to establish their profile in the roster from which they may be considered for consultancy opportunities that may arise. Inclusion in the roster does not guarantee a contract with the ILO.
Once in the roster, consultants can be contracted directly by ILO technical departments or field offices to work on specific sections or topics of the website for a set period of time.
Consultants will work directly with ILO experts in the contracting departments/field offices, under the guidance of the ILO Communications and IT department.
The ILO values diversity. We welcome applications from qualified women and men, including those with disabilities. If you are unable to complete our online application form due to a disability, please send an email to ilojobs@ilo.org
Consultants who are selected for this roster are required to:
Advanced university degree in Digital Communications, Journalism or other relevant disciplines.
