**Background Information - UNOPS**
UNOPS is dedicated to assisting individuals in need by enhancing the capacity of the United Nations, governments, and various partners to manage projects, infrastructure, and procurement in a sustainable and effective manner.
Within its core competencies, UNOPS offers advisory, implementation, and transactional services, engaging in projects that range from constructing educational institutions and healthcare facilities to procuring essential goods and services and training local personnel. UNOPS collaborates closely with governments and communities to promote economic, social, and environmental sustainability in the projects it supports, with a strong emphasis on developing national capabilities.
Operating in some of the most challenging environments globally, our vision is to advance sustainable implementation practices in development, humanitarian, and peace-building contexts, consistently meeting or exceeding partner expectations. With a workforce of over 7,000 personnel across 80 countries, UNOPS provides its partners with the logistical, technical, and management expertise they require, wherever they may be.
**General Background – UNOPS in Yemen**The ongoing conflict in Yemen has led to significant disruptions in the supply chain and the overall availability of services. In response to the diminished or entirely absent public services, communities have adopted various coping strategies, including utilizing alternative water and energy sources and relying on community-based service delivery initiatives to address the shortfall.
Damage to infrastructure and the lack of functionality in one sector often impacts other sectors, resulting in significant consequences for both access to and quality of services, which are frequently interrelated.
**Yemen Emergency Lifeline Connectivity Project (YELCP)**The primary goal of this initiative is to provide climate-resilient road access and create employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for the food-insecure rural population of Yemen. Funded by the World Bank and implemented through UNOPS, the project activities are expected to be completed within the designated timeframe.
The project encompasses four components:
**Component 1:** Improvement and Maintenance of Rural and Village Access Roads; Sub-Component Rehabilitation of Lifeline Rural Access Roads; Sub-Component Employment-Intensive Road Maintenance.
**Component 2:** Strengthening Management Capacity of Transport Sector Public Institutions.
**Component 3:** Project implementation and monitoring support, studies, and preparatory activities for future projects.
Under Component 1, as part of climate change initiatives, UNOPS is tasked with implementing slope stabilization using bio-engineering techniques over an area of 100,000 square meters in regions where roads are rehabilitated under the project. The **Senior Engineer for Environmental Solutions** will be engaged to assist the team in Yemen in identifying potential areas for slope stabilization using bio-engineering techniques, designing such works, and submitting design documentation for implementation.
Under the direct supervision of the YELCP Project Manager, the Senior Engineer for Environmental Solutions will provide professional and technical services by identifying and proposing suitable areas (approximately 100,000 square meters) for slope stabilization using bio-engineering techniques, developing designs for such works, preparing detailed design documentation, and submitting drafts for review. Final design documentation will be submitted to UNOPS for use in construction contracts.

Submit final design documentation after incorporating stakeholder comments.3. **Preparation and Submission of a Final Report:**
Compile a final design report for approval, including methodologies, findings, and recommendations. Revise the report based on feedback from UNOPS and stakeholders.4. **Assistance During Implementation:**
