INTRODUCTION TO GGGI:

The Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) is a treaty-based international, inter-governmental organization dedicated to supporting and promoting strong, inclusive and sustainable economic growth in developing countries and emerging economies.

To learn more please visit about GGGI web page.

CONTEXT:

GGGI's Latin America & Caribbean (LAC) regional office oversees a portfolio of programs across eight countries in the region, delivers cross-cutting technical assistance, and develops new projects and programs with GGGI Member countries.

As part of this work, the regional office actively seeks new business opportunities and projects with donors and development partners.

As such, the core work of the organization in the LAC region is high impact project delivery, which requires effective, efficient, transparent, and agile operations to ensure success.

As GGGI's work in the region gross, the LAC regional office is seeking an Operations Senior Associate who can support the standardization, improvement, and high performance of operations and the staff who deliver them.

Based in Mexico City, the Operations Senior Associate, LAC will provide training, capacity development, and risk management support to guide administrative and financial operations in the region, in line with GGGI's rules, regulations and policies.

The Senior Associate will have an agile approach to work, be highly organized and transparent, while also promoting a service-oriented approach to operations.

It is expected that the Senior Associate will be a quick, self-driven learner who can learn the rules and systems of GGGI to both implement them in country and regional teams and transfer that knowledge to others.

The Senior Associate will provide capacity building and training to project managers, administrative, and operational staff to champion robust operational processes and financial management for both new and existing regional programs.

In line with GGGI's rules and regulations-including finance policies and accounting standards, procurement rules and regulations, Human Resource rules, regulations and policies, GGGI's Project cycle Management Processes, and donor agreements—the Operations Senior Associate, LAC will standardize processes and build capacity in the region for budget and financial management, processing and delivery of procurement contracts, recruitment and human resources management, reporting and managing requirements for donors, and other operational tasks as required.

This role is expected to identify gaps, find solutions, and enhance capacity to address the operational challenges that GGGI faces in the rapidly growing LAC region.

The incumbent will be motivated to empower teams through standardized tools and strategies to enhance their operational capabilities and ultimately enable impactful project delivery.
