The Republic of Uzbekistan has received financing from the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) through the World Bank toward the cost of the Uzbekistan Education System Capacity Building Project. The Ministry of Preschool and School Education of the Republic of Uzbekistan (“the Implementing Agency”) intends to apply part of the proceeds to hire an Individual Consultant to carry out a Comprehensive Assessment of Budgeting and Public Investment Management Practices under Component 1 of the Project.

The objective is to assess MoPSE’s internal budgeting/PIM processes, identify gaps, review alignment with national reforms (2030 Strategy, PBF), analyze integration of externally financed projects, and provide actionable recommendations and a phased roadmap; the consultant will also draft ToR for a follow-up engagement.

The Ministry of Preschool and School Education of the Republic of Uzbekistan now invites individual consultants to indicate their interest in providing the Services. Interested consultants must send a CV that provides information on their qualifications and experience demonstrating their ability to undertake this assignment (reference to similar services, experience in similar assignments, availability, etc.). The qualification criteria are as follows:

• Advanced degree in Public Financial Management, Economics, Education Finance, or a closely related field;
• At least 5 years of experience in public budgeting, investment planning, or PFM reform, preferably with direct experience in the education sector and in transitioning to performance-based or program-based budgeting;
• Demonstrated experience in institutional diagnostics and capacity building, including in resource-constrained or decentralized service delivery contexts;
• Knowledge of international good practices in education finance reform and tools used for performance-based budgeting;
• Experience working with ministries of education and/or finance in transition economies or similar development contexts;
• Working proficiency in Russian or Uzbek is strongly preferred, due to the need for reviewing internal documentation and conducting stakeholder consultations in local languages;
• Experience in Uzbekistan or other CIS country will be an advantage;
• Strong writing, analytical, communication, and facilitation skills.

Selected consultant will get a lump-sum contract with milestone payments for 13 weeks, expected to commence in September 2025.
