United Nations Careers

The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. The world looks to the United Nations for solutions to complex problems everywhere; from ending conflict and alleviating poverty, to combating climate change and defending human rights. The issues on our agenda are manifold and diverse as are the careers we offer.

We in the United Nations are committed to a diverse and inclusive workforce that is representative of all the peoples we serve. At the core of our ability to deliver on our mandates are the thousands of personnel who serve the United Nations with pride and dedication. The diversity of our workforce, some 36,000 staff from all 193 of our Member States, means that we work in multi-cultural teams with people from all backgrounds and cultures who have wide perspectives, experiences, expectations and approaches.
