About the Role

We are seeking a highly qualified Macro Economic Policy Expert to join our team at the Pacific Liaison and Coordination Office (PLCO).

You will support the implementation of regional and country partnership strategies across the South Pacific, which is aligned with countries' development plans and ADB's Strategy 2030. You will also assist in external relations activities, including coordination with development partners, civil society, and the press.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Lead the development, facilitate, and monitor the implementation of the country's knowledge plans, and plans for climate change investment, private sector development, regional cooperation and integration, and gender action.
  • Steer and coordinate knowledge products and activities to ensure expectations of clients on knowledge work are met.
  • Support policy dialogue and coordination with development partners, civil society and academia and help manage communications and external relations.

  • A University degree in economics, data science, political science, public policy, public administration, or other fields relevant to the sector/area; preferably at post-graduate level or its equivalent (PhD degree is an advantage).
  • At least 6 years of relevant work experience in evaluating macroeconomic performance, undertaking sector economic analysis, and adequate exposure to social and political assessment work.
  • Two years of relevant experience outside ADB within the past five years is required. Years as an ADB-engaged consultant or contractor are considered experience outside of ADB.
  • Background in economics, data science, finance and public policy, including an understanding of macro-economic planning, economic and fiscal forecasting, statistics, financial and capital markets, public financial management, institutional analysis, and project economic analysis.
  • Proficiency in numerical, analytical, and conceptual skills in economics, with a track record of producing high-quality knowledge outputs.
