Asset Management Adviser, Bougainville (3011)

Closing Date: 28 May 2012

Interview: June 22nd and 23rd (Applicants will be required for both days)

Pre-departure Briefing: September 26th to 29th

Expected in Field: October 2012

Position Term: 2 years

Assess and develop an asset management system.

The Division of Finance and Treasury was once part of the North Solomons Provincial Government and then became incorporated into the Autonomous Bougainville Government (ABG) in 2005.  The division is charged with the overseeing and maintenance of the asset register for government, which includes 14 divisions and 13 districts.  All of the administration records and assets sit under Finance and Treasury, although each division has its own records.  Finance and Treasury Staff (Property Manager and Assets Clerk) are required to visit all divisions to check that records and assets registers are properly maintained.

A VSA Records Management Assignment (with the division of Human Resource Development in 2009-2010) began the task of organising an efficient filing system.  Some staff training also took place and a good start was made.  This assignment helped identify the need for assistance with asset management and archives storage.

VSA is now seeking a volunteer to work with the Assets (Property and Housing) Manager to assess the current asset management system and implement any necessary changes.  They will also establish policies, processes, and structures that support sound procurement management; assist in the establishment of a system to identify assets for future disposal; and provide training for staff as required.

This is a two year assignment and basic, furnished accommodation will be provided.
