Organization description
Solutions for Our Climate (SFOC) is an independent policy research and advocacy group that aims to make emissions trajectories across Asia compatible with the Paris Agreement 1.5°C warming target. SFOC is led by legal, economic, financial, and environmental experts with experience in energy and climate policy.
Job description
Since its founding in 2016, SFOC has led strategic campaigns on coal power phase-out, renewables, and climate finance. More recently, we have expanded our work beyond the power sector, establishing oil and gas, legal, steel, and land-use, maritime transportation and methane programs. SFOC’s effectiveness comes from its extensive digital and media communication, legal strategy, political network, and leadership among grassroots campaigns. SFOC plans to incubate a shipbuilding program, which will seek to end public financing of oil and gas-related ships and advocate for transition plans for the oil and gas shipbuilding-reliant regions. This program will be led by the Shipbuilding Program Lead. The Lead will temporarily report to the Head of SFOC’s Climate Finance Program who oversees SFOC’s work on transition finance, greening export credit agencies and decarbonizing the private finance sector, but this arrangement may change as SFOC’s oil and gas work builds up.
SFOC is seeking an experienced leader who can supervise the shipbuilding program. The ideal candidate has at least five years’ experience in her/his career, is an excellent strategist, has experience leading a team of talented people, and proactive. The Shipbuilding Program Lead will be responsible for the following:
