  • Help develop new indicators on governance and institutions to monitor country's institutional capacity and reform process.
  • Continue to develop approaches to institutional and political economy analysis.
  • Develop a network with academics focused on institutional development, governance analytics and data.
  • Provide cross support to regional teams.
  • Develop and deliver training events on public institutions and government analytics as well as on various topics linked to governance, public institutions, and governance data.
  • Review and provide succinct comments on CPFs, CCDRs, and corporate proposals.
Requirements
  • Master's or Ph.D. degree in Economics, Public Policy, Political Science or similar field, with at least 5 years of experience.
  • Hands-on experience with reform processes, political economy analytics and change management at the country level.
  • Proven experience with climate change governance, understanding 'governance in sectors' and working across sectoral boundaries.
  • Experience working with governance data.
  • Strong track record of research and publications in the area of governance and institutions.
  • Analytical and quantitative skills for policy, economic and financial analysis.
  • Experience/knowledge of data analytical tools (e.g., Stata, python, R).
  • Experience with mentoring junior staff and managing task teams in a collaborative way.
  • Experience of designing and delivering training events for staff and for client counterparts.
  • Strong integrative capacities: i.e., ability to situate public sector governance and Institutional strengthening activities within a coherent strategic framework and economic development narrative.
  • Ability to juggle numerous competing demands and priorities, respond quickly to country and management requests, and set priorities for self and others.
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills in English; ability to communicate in another main language (Spanish, French, Arabic) would be a plus.
