STATEMENT OF DUTIES POSITION DESCRIPTION BACKGROUND USAID�s Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) is seeking highly motivated, highly qualified individuals who want the opportunity to help support rapid international transition programs for priority conflict-prone countries. Created in 1994 as a distinct operating unit within USAID, OTI helps local partners advance peace and democracy in politically-transitioning countries. In support of U.S. foreign policy, OTI seizes emerging windows of opportunity in the political landscape to promote stability, peace, and democracy by catalyzing local initiatives through adaptive and agile programming. Countries experiencing a significant political transition in the midst of a disaster or emerging from civil conflict have unique needs that cannot be fully addressed by traditional disaster relief.� Timely and effective assistance to promote and consolidate peaceful, democratic advances can make the difference between a successful or a failed transition.� OTI assists in securing peace by aiding indigenous, mostly non-governmental, civil society and media organizations.� OTI uses such mechanisms as support for re-integration of ex-combatants into civilian society; development of initiatives to promote national reconciliation; identification of quick-impact community self-help projects to meet urgent economic needs; and aid to independent media outlets and community-based organizations to help promote informed debate and broaden public participation. To respond quickly and effectively and meet its program objectives and mandate OTI retains a group of high level professionals and experts under U.S. Personal Services Contracts (USPSCs). These knowledgeable and skilled professionals make up the vast majority of the OTI work force and are at its forefront implementing and achieving the office�s programmatic goals and objectives. There are several benefits that USPSCs may participate in, such as partial reimbursement for health and life insurance costs, as well as full coverage of workers� compensation, among other benefits. For more complete information on USPSC benefits, please see Section VI of this solicitation. For more information about OTI and its country programs please see: http://www.usaid.gov/political-transition-initiatives Introduction The OTI Senior Regional Advisor position was developed in response to a significant increase in USAID�s portfolio of countries that face various forms of fragility or crisis as well as an increase in demand for OTI�s experience and programming methodology. As USAID�s lead operational unit for crisis intervention programming, OTI has evolved to carry out more assessments, provide more experientially-based technical advice and analysis, and closely monitor countries that face possible political crises in order to deepen understanding, identify opportunities and constraints, and prepare programming when necessary.�� The Senior Regional Advisor will be based in Nairobi, Kenya at the USAID/Kenya and East Africa (USAID/KEA) Mission and will report to the Washington-based OTI Southern and East Team Leader while also maintaining a close line of day-to-day coordination with the Nairobi-based USAID/KEA Mission Director. As the senior OTI representative in the field, the Senior Regional Advisor will represent and serve as a liaison between OTI and a wide array of individuals and institutions including USAID Field Missions, other DCHA and Conflict Prevention and Stabilization (CPS) Bureau office representatives, regionally based officials from the State Department, the Department of Defense, and other agencies of the U.S. Government, international organizations, and the non-government community abroad on political transition, conflict and post-conflict issues in the region. The position will augment technical capabilities at USAID/KEA on thematic issues relevant to OTI programming including, but not limited to, complex crisis response, political transition, and stabilization. The Senior Regional Advisor will visit, as necessary, ongoing OTI programs in the region as well as proposed and potential country program sites, serving as OTI�s senior official in the region, and may be called upon to support other regions as needed. The Senior Regional Advisor will serve as the agent of the OTI Team Leader and, when designated, will have supervisory authority when working with OTI country teams.

As OTI takes its place within the new Conflict Prevention and Stabilization (CPS) Bureau, the new bureau�s leadership envision this position more broadly representing CPS equities and capabilities. The Senior Regional Advisor will train, mentor, backstop, and support OTI country teams, including Country Representatives, Deputy Country Representatives, and other staff on the OTI business model, procedures, minimum program requirements, and best practices. He or she will help to determine the learning and training needs of in-country staff, and contribute to broader office policy and process discussions to promote state-of-the-art transition programming. Through coordination with OTI�s home office, the Senior Regional Advisor will stay abreast of current thinking, policy determinations, lessons learned and best practices from other regions, while at the same time cultivating and sharing best practices found in the field. Through on-the-ground knowledge of OTI country programs, the Senior Regional Advisor will contribute to the refinement of OTI�s learning and training strategy, training regimes, and materials for staff in country programs as well as office surge staff known as the Bullpen.
