Description

The Climate Finance Accelerator (CFA) is a £12m technical assistance programme providing practical ways to help governments finance and deliver their climate commitments under the Paris Agreement. The CFA aims to improve the flow of climate finance in participating countries to deliver emissions reductions.

The role of the CFA Advisor is to support the continued successful delivery of the CFA process and to support its embedding in-country. The CFA Advisor will help oversee programme delivery by:
- Providing strategic guidance to in-country processes and wider programme implementation
- Leveraging links to financiers, and helping secure participation at events
- Participating and facilitating CFA workshops, as required
- Participating in the CFA Advisory Board
- Supporting the CFA embedding process, by giving strategic advice on possible governance structures, helping source funding both in country and globally, and thinking holistically about the future of CFA and how the value it brings can be maximised.

In the case of continued CFA expansion to new countries, the CFA Advisor will help guide the CFA country selection process based on agreed criteria such as market maturity, availability of bankable projects, and suitability of the enabling environment.
