Applications are invited from suitably qualified persons to fill the role of Administrative Officer with the Port Development Project under the Ministry of Communications, Works and Labour in Montserrat.
The Port infrastructure is currently one of priority projects which is deemed to be pivotal for Montserrat’s revitalization, economic recovery and sustainability. Currently, Montserrat is unable to provide a safe harbour for cruise ships, ferries, yachts, cargo and fishing vessels in the absence of a breakwater, adequate jetty length and suitable water depth at the jetty, along with other related facilities on land.
The Government of Montserrat (GOM) applied to Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) for a grant to assist in financing a project for the development of the Port at Little Bay under the United Kingdom Caribbean Infrastructure Partnership Fund (UKCIF). Additional funds were also received from the Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO). The expected outcome of the project is improved efficiency, effectiveness and resilience of the Port facilities to provide a safe harbour and accessibility to all users. GoM has identified the need to appropriately staff the project to ensure it is implemented in accordance with the terms stipulated by CDB.
