<p>Promoting fair and competitive markets is a key driver of economic efficiency, private-sector development, and consumer welfare. Across the Arab region, markets are undergoing rapid transformation driven by diversification efforts, evolving regulatory frameworks, digitalization, and global supply-chain shifts. These developments have increased the need for rigorous legal, regulatory, and competition analysis to help governments identify market distortions, assess anti-competitive practices, and design effective, evidence-based policy interventions. Within this context, ESCWA supports member States in strengthening competition frameworks, improving market performance, and building institutional, legal, and analytical capacities for competition assessment and enforcement. The Competition and Consumer Policies portfolio in the Economic Governance and Planning Section combines regional policy development, country-level technical assistance, market studies, capacity-building, and knowledge products, often in close collaboration with national competition authorities and other public institutions. A key area of focus is the use of competition-based market studies to identify structural, behavioral, regulatory, and legal constraints affecting market performance. These studies serve as practical tools for diagnosing market failures, reviewing the adequacy of legal and institutional frameworks, supporting enforcement priorities, and guiding reforms that enhance efficiency, resilience, and consumer welfare. Within this broader regional mandate, ESCWA is currently supporting the Sultanate of Oman in strengthening competition conditions in priority economic sectors. The building materials sector, which is central to construction, infrastructure development, and industrial activity, has been identified as a strategic area for in-depth analysis. The sector plays a critical role in national development yet faces challenges related to market structure, supply chains, pricing dynamics, regulatory requirements, institutional arrangements, and potential anti-competitive practices. To respond to these needs, ESCWA seeks to engage a Legal Competition Consultant to support legal, regulatory, policy, and technical work under the Competition and Consumer Policies portfolio. The consultant will be assigned primarily to the Oman building materials market study and will contribute to legal assessments, competition law and policy analysis, review of regulatory and institutional frameworks, and the identification of legal or procedural constraints affecting market competition. The consultant may also provide support to other related competition-policy activities of the section, as required and in line with the needs of the assignment.</p><p>Under the overall supervision of the Project Manager and Economic Affairs Officer, the Consultant will support the legal and regulatory analysis of ESCWA s work on competition policy, market studies, and business regulation. The Consultant will primarily support the legal analysis of the XB project for Oman building materials sector, while also providing legal and regulatory inputs to related work on market functioning, competition, consumer protection, and business regulations, as required and within the scope of the assignment.</p><p><strong>Desired Candidate Profile</strong></p><ul><li>A Master's degree or equivalent in law, business law or related areas is required. A first-level university degree, in combination with qualifying experience, may be accepted in lieu of the advanced degree. All candidates must submit a copy of the required educational degree. Incomplete applications will not be reviewed.</li><li>A minimum of 4 years of experience in the fields of law, economics, business, or related field is required.</li><li>Experience in contributing to analytical papers is required.</li><li>Understanding of legal frameworks in business environments is desirable.</li><li>Previous experience in working with international organizations is desirable.</li><li>Fluency in English and Arabic is required.</li></ul>

The project aims at supporting gender-responsive job creation and help generating economic opportunities for women-led micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across various productive sectors with high growth potential. Through this objective the project will be fostering the economic security, stability and prosperity of women entrepreneurs and women-led MSMEs in Lebanon. The project includes 3 main components: Component 1: Ensuring that government institutions are more responsive to women s needs through processes that are more conducive to doing business, Component 2: Ensuring that women-led MSMEs have access to the financial resources to grow and remain sustainable, Component 3: Ensuring that women-led MSMEs receive the needed technical support to increase their access to local and international markets. The project was developed in response to the multiple crises that have hit Lebanon, in particular the financial crisis which have hindered the ability of MSMEs in general and women-led MSMEs to access the needed financing to grow. With the collapse of the banking system and the resulting depletion of all sources of financing, access to finance is considered as one of the biggest impediments for MSMEs and particularly women MSMEs to develop and take their business to the next level. This has compounded to the already existing barriers women entrepreneurs have been facing namely stringent collateral requirements, high interest rates, complex documentation processes, sub-optimal financial literacy, absence of market information, etc. In light of the current situation and the ongoing conflict, and based on consultations held with WEE project beneficiaries, MSMEs are currently facing significant cash flow constraints and growing financial pressures that are affecting their ability to sustain operations, retain workers, and plan for the short and medium term. Many businesses are operating in an increasingly uncertain environment, with limited capacity to assess risks, respond to disruptions, and adopt practical financial strategies to maintain stability during crises.</p><p>This Terms of Reference (TOR) outlines the scope of work, qualifications, and expected deliverables for the Senior Trade Specialist who will be responsible.</p><p>The expert will ensure</p><p><strong>SCOPE OF WORK, RESPONSIBILITIES AND DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED ANALYTICAL WORK</strong></p><p>UNDP is seeking the services of a Short-Term Individual Consultant (Senior Trade Specialist) to improve the business environment for SMEs through regulatory reform, trade facilitation, SME data centralization, and strengthening institutional mechanisms for protecting national production.
