CoST, the Infrastructure Transparency Initiative is seeking a self-motivated Private Sector Lead to deliver an exciting new programme funded by the US Department of State that aims to galvanise the private sector as partners against corruption.
This is a new role that provides the post-holder to shape the role and scale up our engagement with the private sector. This cross-cutting role includes:
- Leading the development of the Infrastructure Anti-Corruption Toolbox (IACT), a web-based resource principally aimed at companies looking to mitigate the risk of corruption in the infrastructure sector.
- Overseeing the implementation of IACT in Latin America, and South-East Asia and Africa in coordination with Head of CoST Member and Affiliates.
- Leading our engagement with the private sector including bodies representing the global engineering and construction industry and associations representing investors in coordination with the Head of Communications and Advocacy.
- Reporting progress and results as our principle of point of contact with the US Department of State.
You’ll also have a role in shaping our future work with the private sector in general and contributing to business development by providing a private sector perspective when developing grant proposals, commercial bids and strategic partnerships.
Across all our programmes, professional communication, being pro-active and organised, branding of CoST and stakeholder engagement and management is key. Programme delivery is rarely linear so you must be comfortable in rapidly evolving and dynamic environments.
You will be working remotely with in-person team meetings usually held in London 2 to 3 times a year and we are open to candidates living outside of the UK.
