USAID/Ghana and USAID/West Africa Locally Engaged Staff (LE Staff) Personal Services Contract positions are open to all residents of Ghana including US Citizens and third country nationals.
Anyone hired under an LE Staff Personal Services Contract position will be paid in accordance with the Local Compensation Plan (LCP). US Minimum Wage applies for US citizens hired to these positions. If the LCP wage is below US Minimum Wage, US citizens will be paid US Minimum Wage.
All applications will be considered on a competitive basis. Veteran’s preference and EFM status are not applicable to these positions. US Citizens and Permanent Residents of the US are subject to US Federal and State taxes and local taxes if applicable. Under Ghanaian law if you are paying US taxes you should not have to pay local taxes but it is the responsibility of the incumbent to ensure they are meeting the requirements of their individual situations.
Final selected candidates must obtain security and medical clearances within a reasonable period of time (USAID will provide details regarding these clearances to the selected candidate). If such clearances are not obtained within a reasonable time, any offer made may be rescinded.
