Overview:
Organizational
Setting and Work Relationships
The primary functions of project control are to complement programme management
and provide support for oversight of projects including the formulation of a
monitoring plan, quality assurance, and verification. Other activities of
project control include: review of project agreements, project audit,
monitoring that there is synchrony between financial and operational
performance, participation in multi-functional monitoring activities and
reviews, tracking project risk management, and supporting project closure.
It is essential to maintain segregation of duties between project control and
programme functions for effective accountability and oversight. Where there is
no Project Control Officer, General Service staff performing project control
functions should report directly to the Head of Office.
The Project Control Associate receives general guidance and work plans from the
supervisor. They work independently on regular assignments under the
supervision of the Project Control Officer or to the same management level as
programme. The incumbent may supervise other general service staff.
Project Control staff play a very important role in maintaining harmonious and
effective partnerships, and often interact with implementing partners. As a
result, incumbents need to be very mindful of all dimensions of partnerships in
their interaction with partners (in accordance with the Principles of
Partnership, the Code of Conduct and other relevant documents).
