**Main purpose of job**:
The British Embassy Bangkok is a large diplomatic mission of around 150 staff delivering a dynamic and rapidly expanding programme of activity in support of the UK’s objectives including on economic and sustainable development, trade, security, open societies, consular services and law enforcement. This is an exciting opportunity to join our diverse team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a fast paced and dynamic team in a critical decade for global action on the energy transition needed to move away from fossil fuels and towards clean growth. As part of the UK Government’s global response to the climate challenge and its commitment to help deliver the aims of the 2015 Paris Agreement, we plan to launch the UK PACT (Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions) programme in Thailand. UK PACT is a technical assistance programme that has been established to support partner countries to accelerate their clean growth transitions and reduce carbon emissions in line with their Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). Thailand and the UK are working in partnership to tackle climate change and Thailand has been identified as a key strategic partner for UK PACT.

This position, based in the British Embassy Bangkok, will lead design and implementation of the UK PACT Country Programme in Thailand. This will include shaping the overarching strategy; ensuring high quality value for money delivery of UK PACT projects in Thailand, including regional links under the Green Transition Fund (GTF); identifying opportunities for new programme interventions; establishing and maintaining a strong stakeholder network of UK PACT counterparts in Thailand; and supporting regional opportunities for project delivery under the new ASEAN Green Transition Fund (GTF) which will be delivered closely alongside bilateral UK PACT work.

The role holder will be responsible for ensuring the UK PACT Thailand Country Programme delivers high impact, value for money, interventions. For the skill-shares and secondment component, the role-holder will be expected to promote, design and implement skill-shares in partnership with a range of different Thai counterparts.

This role will be based in the Economic and Sustainable Development team at the British Embassy in Bangkok. The post holder will be expected to work closely with the climate and energy attaché and other team members to align UK PACT with the UK’s wider climate and economic partnership with Thailand, as well as contribute to wider UK objectives across the Embassy.

1. Design and implement the UK PACT Thailand Country Strategy and ASEAN Green Transition Fund
