This will require strong interpersonal relationship building, as well as strong political and policy development experience helping governments achieve their priority goals. To deliver your remit, you will work with country teams to drive our global offer, but will need to effectively engage with the knowledge and resources across the Institute including our partnerships team and Policy & Politics Division.
