<p>Result of Service The consultant will design, build and operationalize geospatial AI pipelines, models and services that turn Earth observation and other geospatial data into policy-relevant indicators and decision-support tools for Arab Member States. The work will be integrated into DSDS platforms and will strengthen ESCWA's in-house geospatial analytics capacity. Work Location Hybrid Expected duration 6 months Duties and Responsibilities Background: The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) supports its 22 Arab Member States in achieving inclusive and sustainable development through evidence-based policymaking. Within ESCWA, the Decision Support and Data Science Division (DSDS) designs and operates AI platforms, data science tools, digital portals and decision-support systems. These include the Arab Development Portal (ADP), the ISPAR policy simulator, Polaris/Naseej (a multi-agent research and policy-synthesis engine), Mustashar (an Arabic-language AI legal advisory tool), and other specialized digital tools. Geospatial data and Earth observation are becoming central to policy analysis in the region. Satellite imagery, remote sensing, mobility data and other non-traditional sources can fill statistical gaps, produce near-real-time indicators, and support monitoring where conventional data are sparse, outdated or disrupted by conflict. Examples include tracking trade flows and border activity, measuring urban expansion and informal settlements, monitoring agricultural production and water use, assessing climate and disaster exposure, and estimating economic activity at the subnational level. DSDS is building a GeoAI capability to integrate geospatial intelligence into its platforms and analytical services. This work also supports the division's forthcoming practitioner manual, GeoInsights for Policymaking: Practitioner Manual for Geospatial Analysis and Decision Support, and related Development Account and technical cooperation work on AI, geospatial and non-traditional data. To lead the technical development of this capability, ESCWA seeks a Senior GeoAI Engineer. Duties and responsibilities: Under the overall supervision of the Chief of DSDS, the consultant will:</p><p>a) GeoAI architecture and data infrastructure Design a scalable, cloud-based geospatial data architecture covering ingestion, storage, processing and serving of raster and vector data (e.g., Sentinel-1/2, Landsat, VIIRS night-time lights, commercial high-resolution imagery, OpenStreetMap, administrative boundaries). Establish reproducible pipelines using cloud-optimized formats (COG, GeoParquet, Zarr, STAC catalogues) and tools such as Google Earth Engine, Microsoft Planetary Computer or equivalent. Ensure interoperability with existing DSDS platforms (ADP, ISPAR, Polaris/Naseej) through APIs and standard data services (OGC-compliant where appropriate).</p><p>b) Model development and use cases Develop, fine-tune and validate machine learning and deep learning models for priority use cases. Final selection will be agreed with the supervisor within the first month. Apply and adapt geospatial foundation models (e.g., Prithvi, SatMAE, Clay, SAM-based segmentation) where they add value over conventional approaches. Document model performance, uncertainty and limitations, including ground-truth validation against official statistics where available.</p><p>c) Decision-support products Develop interactive geospatial dashboards and map-based decision-support tools for policymakers. Produce subnational indicator datasets that can feed into ISPAR simulations, ADP data products and Polaris/Naseej evidence synthesis. Explore integration of geospatial retrieval and analysis into LLM-based agentic workflows (e.g., natural-language querying of geospatial layers).</p><p>d) Responsible AI and data governance Apply ESCWA's AI governance principles to all GeoAI work, including data provenance, privacy, bias assessment (e.g., urban/rural and regional representativeness), and the sensitivities of geospatial data in conflict-affected contexts. Prepare model cards and data documentation for all production models.</p><p>e) Knowledge products and capacity development Contribute technical content, worked examples and code notebooks to the GeoInsights for Policymaking practitioner manual. Design and deliver at least two technical trainings or workshops for Member State officials and/or ESCWA staff. Provide technical input to project proposals, concept notes and briefs involving geospatial and non-traditional data, as requested. Mentor DSDS staff and junior consultants and transfer knowledge through documentation, code reviews and hands-on sessions.</p><p>Languages English and French are the working languages of the United Nations Secretariat; and Arabic is a working language of ESCWA. For this position, fluency in English is required and knowledge of Arabic is desirable.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Desired Candidate Profile</strong></p><p>A Master's degree or equivalent in geoinformatics, remote sensing, computer science, data science, geography, civil/environmental engineering or a related field is required. A PhD in a relevant field is desirable. A first-level university degree with two additional years of 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.</p><p>At least seven years of progressively responsible experience in geospatial data science, remote sensing or GIS engineering, including at least four years developing and deploying machine learning or deep learning models on Earth observation data is required. Demonstrated experience building production-grade geospatial pipelines on cloud platforms (e.g., Google Earth Engine, AWS, Azure, Planetary Computer) is required. Strong proficiency in Python and the geospatial stack (GDAL, rasterio, xarray, GeoPandas, PostGIS) and in deep learning frameworks (PyTorch or TensorFlow) is required. Experience with segmentation, object detection and time-series analysis of satellite imagery is required. Experience with geospatial foundation models, LLM-based geospatial workflows or MLOps practices is desirable. Experience producing policy-relevant indicators (e.g., SDG monitoring, poverty mapping, economic activity estimation) is desirable.

<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles &amp; Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p>People &amp; Culture Director Reports to: Chief Marketing Officer (CMO), transitioning to a direct CEO reporting line as the function matures Subordinates: To be defined and built by the role-holder Work Location: Beirut, Lebanon / Limassol, Cyprus / Dubai, UAE Who We Are Swiss Butter is a fast-growing casual steakhouse brand focused on delivering exceptional dining experiences across the globe. Our mission is to create memorable moments for our customers through our signature dishes and strong connection to the communities we serve. Join us as we continue to grow into a globally recognized and loved brand. Summary of Position The People &amp; Culture Director is the architect of the people systems that enable Swiss Butter to scale across multiple countries as a company-owned, decentralized operating group. The role designs and governs the organizational infrastructure that lets each Head of Department own people execution within their function, while ensuring consistency, quality, and leadership readiness across all markets. Core mandates include organizational design, compensation architecture, manpower planning, succession systems, Academy governance, HRIS and ATS infrastructure, and decentralized accountability frameworks. The People &amp; Culture Director ensures the organization is structurally ready to expand, with leadership capacity established ahead of opening cadence rather than in response to it. The guiding principle of the function is clear: People &amp; Culture owns the system; operators own the people. Operating Model &amp; Centralization Boundary Swiss Butter is a company-owned, decentralized operating group. People &amp; Culture is decentralized by default: hiring, promotion, performance management, exit, and day-to-day people decisions are owned and executed by Heads of Department and market leads, within group standards. The function centralizes only what must be centralized to control audit, statutory, and group-consistency risk. Centralizing the system of record and the standard is not the same as centralizing the decision. The Director centralizes the record and the standard, and pushes every decision that can be safely distributed to the operator who owns the outcome. The following boundary is a non-negotiable feature of the role, not a phase-one compromise. Centralized by Mandate (P&amp;C owns the system, the standard, and the record) Employee master data and the single HRIS system of record. One record per employee, one set of service dates, one leave-balance ledger across all entities. Operators write into it; they do not keep parallel or local records. This is the primary audit control. Statutory liability and compliance tracking: end-of-service, leave, GOSI and social security, visa and work-permit validity, and the underlying calculations. These are accounting liabilities and cross-jurisdiction compliance obligations, not people-management choices, and they must be owned centrally and reconciled to Finance. Grading and pay-band architecture: the levels and bands, the compensation philosophy, and the benchmarking method are designed and governed centrally. Pay decisions within an approved band are an operator decision. Group standards for hiring, succession methodology, and SB Academy certification: the definition of what good looks like, so a certified leader means the same thing in every market. Selection and development against those standards are executed by operators. Decentralized to Operators (Heads of Department and Market Leads own the people) Who to hire, promote, and exit, within group standards and approved bands. Day-to-day performance management, coaching, and team development. Running the market-entry hiring playbook locally, and owning their own succession depth, held accountable centrally but executed locally. Key Performance Areas (KPAs) Organizational Design &amp; Operating Model Compensation Architecture &amp; Manpower Planning People Systems &amp; Data Infrastructure Talent Acquisition &amp; Workforce Readiness Leadership Development &amp; the Academy Succession &amp; Leadership Pipeline Performance Management &amp; Calibration Decentralized Accountability &amp; Governance Expansion &amp; New-Market Readiness Duties &amp; Responsibilities Organizational Design &amp; Operating Model Design the decentralized operating model, defining decision rights, guardrails, and escalation paths across all functions and markets. Establish the framework through which Heads of Department own people execution within their areas of responsibility. Maintain organizational clarity across entities, ensuring structure keeps pace with expansion. Compensation Architecture &amp; Manpower Planning Develop and govern a global grading and pay-band structure, mapped and benchmarked across all operating markets. Define the compensation philosophy and ensure pay decisions remain consistent, competitive, and defensible. Build the manpower planning model, aligning headcount and hiring lead times to the expansion pipeline, in partnership with Finance. People Systems &amp; Data Infrastructure Implement our in-house HRIS and ATS platforms to replace manual processes with scalable infrastructure. Establish a single, reliable source of employee data across all markets. Build reporting that supports leadership-level workforce and people-cost decisions. Talent Acquisition &amp; Workforce Readiness Define hiring standards, selection criteria, and certification gates applied consistently across markets. Establish a market-entry people playbook covering hiring, onboarding, and opening readiness for each new location. Ensure operators are equipped to source and select talent within agreed standards. Leadership Development &amp; the Academy Govern the SB Academy as the group's leadership development and operational certification function. Establish operational certification and train-the-trainer systems that replicate leadership capability across markets. Align Academy output to expansion demand, measuring certified leadership capacity produced against opening requirements. Succession &amp; Leadership Pipeline Establish the succession methodology and review cadence covering all critical roles. Ensure every critical role has an identified and developing successor. Hold Heads of Department accountable for maintaining leadership depth within their functions. Performance Management &amp; Calibration Design the performance management and calibration framework applied consistently across all markets. Ensure managers run performance cycles on time and link outcomes to development decisions. Connect performance results to promotion, succession, and pay decisions.&nbsp;</p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph"></p><p>Bachelor's degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, Organizational Development, or a related field (Master's degree is a plus). 10+ years of progressive experience in People &amp; Culture, Human Resources, or Organizational Development, including senior leadership scope.
