Infrastructure Specialist

The Tsunami Recovery Waste Management Project (TRWMP) was conceived to provide a
coordinated, pragmatic response to the public health and environmental concerns
associated with both tsunami/earthquake debris and municipal solid waste (MSW)
management during the rehabilitation and recovery of Aceh and Nias following the
2004 earthquake and tsunami. The TRWMP commenced operation in March 2005 and is
being executed by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through the
Aceh Emergency Response and Transitional Recovery (ERTR) Programme in
partnership with the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Agency (Badan
Rehabilitasi dan Rekonstruksi - BRR) and is currently being implemented through
partnership with local government sanitation departments in thirteen districts
including Kota Banda Aceh, Aceh Barat, Nagan Raya, Pidie, Aceh Jaya, Aceh Besar,
Nias and Nias Selatan, Lhokseumawe, Aceh Utara, Bireuen, Sabang, and Simeulue.

The Assignment is aimed at building the capacity of local and district
government sanitation departments to provide effective efficient solid waste
management services through the provision of new infrastructure including
sanitary landfills. TRWMP plans to build up to 12 new sanitary landfill
facilities over the next two years across the thirteen programme districts in
Aceh and Nias, including the Regional Landfill for KBA / Aceh Besar, at Blang
Bintang. TRWMP will appoint teams of consultants and contractors to carry out
the design, construction, and construction supervision. These teams will be
managed and monitored by the TRWMP infrastructure team consisting of the Nation
Infrastructure Programme Officer, PAs and field monitors, and the International
Infrastructure Specialist.

The International Infrastructure Specialist together with the TRWMP
Infrastructure team will supervise the various construction projects throughout
the thirteen Programme districts of Aceh and Nias. He/she will ensure that the
projects remain on schedule and within budget and will closely monitor, manage,
and report on the construction and construction supervision teams quality and
progress. The International Infrastructure Specialist and TRWMP Infrastructure
team will work closely with the local counterparts (Joint Secretariat of
Regional Blang Bintang or District Dinas Kebersihans) to ensure they remain
fully informed and involved with all construction activities.
