Reporting to the Fiscal Affairs Department (FAD) headquarters, the advisor will collaborate with and provide advice to the Ukrainian authorities, specifically the Ministry of Finance (MOF) Customs Policy Department and the State Customs Service (SCS). The initial appointment term will be for one year, with the possibility of an extension for another year if performance is assessed positively and there is a continued need for technical assistance support in the field. In the first year of this assignment, the resident advisor is expected to be located outside Ukraine, specifically in Vienna, Austria, with the need to conduct regular work visits to Kyiv, security conditions permitting. Thereafter, and if the security situation improves, and the Fund decides to resume operations in Kyiv, consistent with IMF policies on field positions, the resident expert will be asked to relocate to Kyiv. This position is funded by the IMF Ukraine Capacity Development Fund. [1]
