Rotational positions are positions subject to rotation. They include positions that exist in multiple country offices, HQs Bureaux/offices and in global and regional offices/centres. Their profiles, in terms of functions, qualifications, experience, competencies, expected contribution, level of responsibility and outputs are generally similar to those of multiple positions across UNDP. All rotational positions are subject to an Annual Rotation Exercise (ARE), though rotational positions may also be filled outside of the ARE when vacant or when it is in the interest of UNDP to do so.
