ABOUT WFP
WFP is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. The mission of WFP is to help the world achieve Zero Hunger in our lifetimes.

Every day, WFP works worldwide to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry and that the poorest and most vulnerable, particularly women and children, can access the nutritious food they need.

  • Develop, document and maintain updated guidelines and standard procedures to facilitate the smooth cross-functional assignment of matters as well as the identification of trends in the demand for cross-functional work and LEG services, best practices and lessons learned.
  • Monitor workflows, collate data and prepare data analysis as required to provide LEG Management with accurate information and reports for efficient planning and decision making on status and potential developments in LEG's pooled service arrangement.
  • Coordinate the process for the provision of feedback to lawyers that are involved in the pooled services arrangement and disseminate reports to supervisors to inform their performance management actions.
