Vacancy Announcement Details

Short Term Consultant - Member of the Technical Evaluation Reference Group of the Adaptation Fund

18 Sep 2024

Adaptation Fund

The AF-TERG is an independent evaluation advisory group, accountable to the Board, established to ensure the independent implementation of the Fund’s evaluation policy. Specifically, the AF-TERG provides a) evaluation generation, including advisory and oversight b) evaluation utilization, and c) evaluation capacity building function. The AF-TERG is comprised of an independent group of five part-time experts in evaluation, including a Chair, who are all functionally independent of the Adaptation Fund Board, Board committees, and the secretariat, and the Manager of the Adaptation Fund Board Secretariat (the ‘Manager’) as an ex officio member.

A small AF-TERG secretariat (the ‘AF-TERG Secretariat) led by a Coordinator/Senior Evaluation Officer provides support to the AF-TERG, in particular with regard to the arrangements for the implementation of the evaluation work programme. The AF-TERG Secretariat consists of two staff members and is supported by consultants as approved in the AF-TERG annual workplan and budget.

The members, including the Chair, of the AF-TERG normally serve for a period of three years and are eligible to serve not more than two consecutive terms or six years. The membership of the AF-TERG is managed so that approximately one-third of its membership should retire by rotation every two years. Due to the rotating out of one of the AF-TERG members we are now hiring a new AF-TERG member.

The start of the position is envisaged to be 1 November 2024.

Full details available on the AF-TERG website. Application deadline 10 October.
