The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an intergovernmental organisation committed to advancing security of energy supply, economic growth and environmental sustainability through energy policy co-operation. The IEA operates as an autonomous body within the framework of the OECD. Both the IEA and the OECD seek opportunities to work with an increasing number of non-members of growing importance to the world economy (countries beyond IEA). The Agency aims to foster the contribution of the energy sector to economic development, energy security and environmental sustainability across the globe.

IEA work on energy investment focuses on quantifying and understanding the drivers and challenges facing energy investments today and those required in the years ahead, providing policy advice to governments and engaging with the financial community. Investment plays a prominent role in the IEA Clean Energy Transitions Programme (CETP) - a large, IEA programme that expands the Agency’s direct work with major emerging economies on implementation of energy transitions. It encompasses technical collaboration, policy review and guidance, training and exchange programmes, primarily targeting major emerging economies (e.g. China, India and countries in Southeast Asia, Latin America and sub-Saharan Africa).

The position supports the Agency’s efforts in the economic and financial analysis of energy investments, and in the implementation of effective policies, regulations, market design and financial approaches. The analyst would support and contribute to the publication of the IEA’s flagship World Energy Investment and World Energy Outlook reports as well as other investment-related work.
