**Background**

The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) is an inter-governmental organisation mandated with the widespread and increased adoption and sustainable use of all forms of renewable energy. At present, IRENA has 169 Members (168 States and the European Union) that acceded to its Statute, and 15 additional States in the process of accession. IRENA supports countries in their transition to a sustainable energy future and serves as the principal platform for international cooperation, a center of excellence, and a repository of policy, technology, resource, and financial knowledge on renewable energy. The Agency implements its mandate with the view of sustainable development, increased energy security, and low-carbon economic growth and prosperity.

Within this mandate, the focus of the Knowledge, Policy, and Finance Centre (KPFC) is on collecting data, developing knowledge platforms, and conducting analysis to support the creation of enabling environments for investment and growth in renewables. This entails analytical work on policy and finance, building a gateway to knowledge, giving input to advisory services that the Agency provides to its member states and at regional levels, and targeted engagement with the private sector and civil society.

**The Global Atlas platform** continues to evolve both in the scope of renewable energy resource datasets available on the platform and in the number and kind of support services available to the member states. As a platform, it currently hosts more than 2000 renewable energy resource maps and has been used so far by more than 200,000 professionals worldwide. The Global Atlas geospatial and time-series services - suitability analysis and site appraisals - have supported several countries in identifying prospective zones and in screening several potential sites for solar PV and wind projects. These services will be extended to other renewable energy resources, such as concentrated solar power, mini-hydropower, and bioenergy.

- Undertake geospatial assessment of renewable energy potential for member countries;

- Support the coordination of projects and provide guidance to consultants and contractors as required;
- Participate and assist in the design and implementation of outreach and communication activities, including the development of training materials, presentations, talking points, and other relevant inputs for the head of the unit and upper management, and delivery of workshops;
- Perform other duties as required.

**Competencies**

**Communication**:Speaks and writes clearly and effectively; listens to others, correctly interprets messages from others and responds appropriately; asks questions to clarify and exhibits interest in having two-way communication; demonstrates openness in sharing information and keeping people informed.
