UN jobs by location

Duty station matters in UN recruitment. It affects who is eligible to apply, whether a role is locally or internationally recruited, the salary scale, post adjustment, hardship classification and, for field roles, the working conditions you should expect. This directory groups current vacancies by country and city so you can compare opportunities in the places where you are able or willing to work.

Large hubs such as Geneva, New York, Nairobi, Rome, Bangkok, Vienna and Bonn often carry headquarters or regional-office roles. Country-office and field duty stations may carry more programme, humanitarian, operations, security and nationally recruited posts. Home-based and remote assignments can also appear inside the relevant source data, especially for consultancies.

We list only locations with enough current openings to be useful. Thin location pages are kept out of the index, while active city and country pages include current jobs, deadlines and links to the official application page.
