**Background**:
UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security.

UN Women has recently signed a Strategic Partnership Framework (SPF) with the Government of the UAE that supports the acceleration of the sustainable development agenda through women’s economic empowerment in Africa and Latin America. Under the SPF, in line with UN Women’s Gender Equality Accelerator (GEA) on Women and the World of Work, concrete results in supporting women’s entrepreneurship and decent work will be advanced in Kenya and Chile, as well as at the global level, through promoting gender-responsive procurement (GRP) in the public and private sectors and fostering enabling markets for women. The GEA adopts a systematic approach for women’s economic empowerment that promotes job creation and the full realization of women’s rights, agency, leadership and economic autonomy and attainment of decent working conditions free from violence and harassment and tackles discriminatory social and legal norms through policy and programmatic change. Because procurement has a huge potential to shape financial flows and move the needle on gender equality, the GEA leverages GRP, which applies a gender perspective to procurement, in both the public and private sectors. The expected outcome of the SPF component is that governments and private sector organizations adopt gender-responsive procurement laws, legislation and policies and increase procurement spend from women-owned, led and gender-responsive businesses.

Under the guidance and direct supervision of the Head of Office in Chile, the Economic Empowerment Specialist, Gender-Responsive Procurement is responsible for managing the Accelerating Women’s Economic Empowerment component of the UAE SPF in Chile and will coordinate closely with the Programme Specialist, Gender-Responsive Procurement in the Economic Empowerment section at UN Women HQ.

- Provide advice and ensure synergies with the work on this Component in the Economic Empowerment section and across UN Women
- Prepare the annual workplan and budget and manage their implementation, in coordination with the Programme Specialist/HQ

**2. Provide guidance, technical assistance and capacity development**

- Actively participate to develop capacity for national, subnational and private to develop and implement gender-responsive procurement in Chile as well as regionally

- Contribute to creating tools and standards, such as supplier codes of conduct and evaluation criteria, to support public and private GRP, in coordination with the Programme Specialist/HQ.

**3. Manage knowledge management on public and private GRP**
- Research and identify experiences, lessons learned and promising practices to guide implementation, capacity development and advocacy
- Promote the development, and presentation of knowledge products (e.g. analytical reports, research papers, briefing notes, background papers, online newsletters, etc.) on GRP to advance women’s economic empowerment
- Facilitate knowledge sharing on GRP by convening and participating in strategic events
