Education Requirements

Required

• An Advanced Level Degree (Master’s degree or equivalent) in Economics, Engineering, Public Policy, Energy, International Relations, Natural Resources or a related field.
  
• A First Level (Bachelor’s Degree) in Economics, Engineering, Public Policy, Energy, International Relations, Natural Resources or a related field with an additional two years of relevant experience may be accepted in lieu of the Master’s degree.
  

Experience Requirements

Required

• Minimum of five (5) years of experience in industrial policy and renewable energy.
  
• Experience in solar PV or electric mobility manufacturing and value chain development.
  

Localization Roadmap Frameworks

• Develop and design the technical methodologies for building national-level localization roadmaps for solar PV and electric mobility, including the technical parameters for component-level market sizing and industry complementarity.
  
• Establish technical benchmarks and evaluation criteria to assess the readiness of existing industries and identify firm-level capability gaps for integration into global energy transition technology value chains.
  
• Draft technical inputs for industrial policy measures and specialized skill-development requirements based on specific manufacturing barriers identified during the framework design process.
  
• Coordinate the technical deployment of localization frameworks in pilot countries, managing the application of roadmap methodologies and ensuring rigorous data validation at the national level.
  

Research and Data Analysis

• Contribute in developing and maintaining analytical tools designed to evaluate the competitiveness and socio-economic impacts of domestic assembly and manufacturing.
  
• Perform detailed component-level market assessments and quantitative analysis to identify domestic capability gaps and forward linkages with manufacturing for energy transition technologies.
  
• Utilize quantitative modeling tools to simulate the technical implications of demand- and supply-side industrial policy interventions on domestic assembly viability and investment attractiveness.
  
• Function as the technical subject matter expert on local value chain development, producing data-driven research and providing technical input to strengthen the evidence base for the Green Industrialization programme.
  
• Align domestic industry capability data with the technical appraisal requirements of international financing institutions to facilitate the development of investment-ready localization roadmaps.
  

Stakeholder Engagement

• Liaise with government, industry, and financing institutions to secure primary industrial data and validate the technical accuracy of findings related to local minerals processing and refining.
  
• Organize and facilitate multi-stakeholder technical workshops to build consensus on roadmap findings and validate localization pathways with diverse national and international actors.
  
• Translate complex research outputs into actionable technical guidance for policy-makers and industry leaders to support the practical implementation of national industrial strategies.
