Position description
Apply now: Policy Analyst role at SLOCAT (Remote Position). SLOCAT is the international, multi-stakeholder partnership powering systemic transformations and a just transition towards equitable, healthy, green and resilient transport and mobility systems for the people and the planet. They deliver on the mission through co-creation, co-leadership and co-delivery across knowledge, advocacy and dialogue activities in the intersection between transport, climate change and sustainability. Their multi-sectoral Partnership engages a vibrant and inclusive ecosystem across transport associations, NGOs, academia, governments, multilateral organisations, philanthropy and business; as well as a large community of world-class experts and change-makers. Going where others do not or cannot go individually, their Partnership is leveraged to set ambitious global agendas and catalyse progressive thinking and solutions for the urgent transformation of transport and mobility systems worldwide.
The Policy Analyst will contribute to the policy analysis work of the SLOCAT Secretariat and to the translation of such analysis into messaging and tools for decision-makers. In doing so, this position will help bridge SLOCAT activities on knowledge and analysis with global advocacy, from the conceptualisation stages to outreach. This position will work directly under the supervision of the Director for Outreach and Communications.
