Toronto, Canada IISD Full time

The International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) is an independent think tank that delivers the knowledge to act. Our mission is to promote human development and environmental sustainability. Our big-picture view allows us to address the root causes of some of the greatest challenges facing our planet today—ecological destruction, social exclusion, unfair laws and economic rules, a changing climate. With offices in Winnipeg, Geneva, Ottawa, and Toronto, our work affects lives in nearly 100 countries.

We work closely with international institutions such as the Beyond Oil & Gas Alliance (BOGA), Friends of Fossil Fuel Subsidy Reform, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the International Energy Agency (IEA), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the International Labour Organization (ILO), the World Bank, the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), and international non-governmental organization (NGO) partners. Our approach is hands-on through country-level research and outreach in Canada, India, Indonesia, and South Africa, as well as via international forums such as the G7, the G20, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The world is at a critical moment of delivering ambitious climate action while tackling several other crises.

The Policy Analyst will also be actively involved in IISD Energy’s network of collaborations with other research and civil society organizations in the G20 and other countries (for example, see the list of partners of the Energy Policy Tracker).

Key areas of responsibility will include but not be limited to managing the IISD Energy’s data tools:

- In collaboration with other IISD Energy experts, identifying, quantifying and evaluating various measures of government support for energy (direct budgetary transfers, tax expenditures, price regulations, public finance, state-owned enterprise investments and other forms of support)
- Collecting, reviewing, and logging in data according to the agreed methodologies and templates for the Energy Policy Tracker (currently under revamp), the Fossil Fuel Subsidy Tracker, SDG Indicator 12.c.1., GSI integrated fiscal (IF) model, various inventories of energy subsidies and other energy policies.
- In collaboration with and under the supervision of other IISD Energy experts, contributing to the development of IISD Energy data tools.
- Developing and contributing to various data-based research products by IISD Energy, such as G20 Scorecards on fossil fuels and clean energy funding.
- Promoting the IISD Energy data tools as instruments to support other organizations’ research and ultimate policy change, contributing to IISD outreach linked to the data tools. Presenting and communicating IISD’s work to a variety of audiences.
- Liaising with other organizations that are IISD’s strategic partners for data (e.g., the OECD, UNEP)

The successful applicant will be a quick learner with experience and a keen interest in the analysis of policies and data on climate and energy, sustainable development, fiscal and public finance issues, and international cooperation. They will be confident working with numbers and demonstrate evidence of critical thinking and attention to detail.

The successful applicant will also have:
