Non-Key Experts

For Support to Consolidation of Justice Reform in Albania - EU4Justice II in Albania, funded by European Union.

EPM is part of the consortium shortlisted for EU4Justice II and is building a pool of non-key experts to support the four key experts across the project’s components.

Non-key experts assist the key experts without replacing their expertise, functions or leading role. Their allocation follows a reasonable number of working days, with diversity of knowledge and experience across the fields of expertise, and the terms of reference for each assignment are specific enough to link the expert’s CV to the tasks and results to be achieved.

Tasks may include:

• Assisting with the translation of legal materials and materials related to project events
• Assisting in the preparation of events, including drafting agendas and establishing the logistical arrangements required for the implementation of activities
• Assisting with legal drafting and the preparation of other project materials
• Assisting in the preparation and delivery of training activities, including co-training, and in the organisation and hosting of conferences and other related events
• Assisting with communication and dissemination activities and events
• Contributing to the delivery of activity results and the preparation of analytical inputs in specialised fields of work

Minimum requirements:

• Junior non-key experts: at least 5 years of professional experience in the respective field of expertise required for the activity and results to be achieved
• Senior non-key experts: at least 10 years of professional experience in the respective field of expertise required for the activity and results to be achieved

No “Key Expert’s profile” (Annex IV) is required for non-key experts, but EPM will demonstrate access to experts meeting these minimum requirements. EPM will clearly indicate the category of each expert so the applicable daily fee rate is clear, and will select experts through a transparent procedure based on pre-defined criteria, including professional qualifications, absence of conflicts of interest, language skills and work experience. Selected non-key experts are subject to approval by the contracting authority before they start their tasks.
