CCAC Project Management Specialist
il y a 4 jours
The CCAC Secretariat, hosted by UNEP, is seeking support for the development and management of CCAC-funded climate and clean air projects, primarily in developing countries.
As projects are implemented by CCAC partner organizations (mostly NGOs and IGOs), this role's responsibilities largely relate to overseeing a portfolio of projects (around 20) within a framework akin to grant management.
The CCAC funding process is split into four phases:(1) design – generating calls for proposals from country requests and sectoral priorities, plus the accompanying approval process (2) development – development full implementation plans and budgets (IPBs) with selected implementer, plus finalizing contracts (3) implementation – ensuring projects stay on track, are monitored, and connected to the CCAC's work overall (4) closure – ensuring projects deliver against the outputs and outcomes in their IPBs, etc. The selected candidate's role is focused on phases 2-4. S/he will also proactively ensure that project outputs and outcomes are aligned with and contribute to the CCAC's strategic objectives, e.g. sharing progress through CCAC sector-focused Hubs (stakeholder networks for sector experts), coordinating with the CCAC country engagement team to align project outcomes to government needs and priorities, and promoting project milestones with the CCAC communications team.
