UN consultancies: frequently asked questions

How many UN consultancies are open right now?
There are 962 open United Nations and international-organization consultancies and individual-contractor assignments on UN Careers today, refreshed daily as new ones are posted and others close.
How is a UN consultancy different from a staff job?
A consultancy or individual contractor (IC) assignment is a fixed-scope engagement paid by a negotiated fee, not the staff salary scales, and it does not carry post adjustment, pension or staff benefits. It is a common entry route and a flexible way to work with the UN system.
How do I apply for UN consultant roles?
UN Careers is free to search and links every listing to the official employer page, where you apply. Set a free email alert to be notified when new consultancies open. See our consultant and individual-contractor guide for the full process.
