For Ukraine - Local Empowerment, Accountability and Development Programme (U-LEAD) we are looking for a Knowledge Management Advisor (full time 100%) to join our team based in Kyiv.

 U-LEAD with Europe: Ukraine - Local Empowerment, Accountability and Development Programme’ is a multi-donor action of the European Union and its member states Denmark, Estonia, Germany, Poland and Sweden which supports the efforts of the Ukraine government in the area of decentralisation and regional development.

It is aimed at promoting a viable local self-government and thus bringing a positive change to the people’s life.

The Programme contributes to the establishment of multi-level governance which is transparent, accountable and responsible to the needs of the population.
