democracies for CEU and its sister organisations (Open Society Institute and
the National Soros Foundations). Projects are mainly concerned with Higher
Education Development at a variety of levels, though also include NGO and
other professional activities. SEP is made up of three units under the
supervision of a Dean: Summer University; the Curriculum Resource Centre;

Former Soviet Union. Now SEP is expanding ('globalising') to encompass
emerging democracies in other parts of the world.

process. The appointment will be in the SEP Office at either the Programme
Manager or Senior Programme Manager level depending on the successful

parts of the Middle East, and potentially Southern Africa, Latin America).
Duties include project development, grant proposal and budget writing,
reporting, liaison with project parties, project management, information
gathering and dissemination etc. If a Senior appointment is made, the
appointee will also manage the SEP Office itself.
The successful candidate will have a strong interest and experience in
Higher Education and/or NGO development. S/he will be highly energetic,
innovative, with strong managerial, communication and writing skills, and
fluent English. A Post-graduate degree and knowledge/experience of at least
