清洁交通项目经理

The ICCT is looking for an enthusiastic, entrepreneurial professional to lead our clean fuel and vehicle policy portfolio in Thailand. This position combines the technical grounding of a traditional ICCT researcher with strong stakeholder engagement skills, and will build and maintain relationships with policymakers, government agencies, local NGOs, industry, academics, and media on the ICCT's behalf. Working closely with the ICCT's global program staff, this person will help shape the ICCT's overall policy strategy for Thailand and will partner with ICCT's global communications team to develop outreach and media strategies that raise the visibility and impact of that work.

This position will contribute to ICCT's efforts to support fuel-efficiency standards, zero-emission vehicle availability requirements, and other strategies to improve the environmental and energy performance of on-road transportation in Thailand. As the ICCT's first staff member based in Thailand, this person will serve as our primary representative in the country and, as the sole in-country staff member, will need to operate as a self-directed leader while helping to shape the ICCT's presence in Thailand and the region.

The ideal candidate will bring knowledge of the transportation sector and environmental/energy topics, an understanding of Thai policy-making processes, and demonstrated experience engaging and building relationships with stakeholders within the Thai government, industry, and NGOs, and media. Transportation research and modeling experience are highly desirable, as is experience developing communications or media strategies. Because this person will be the ICCT's sole in-country staff member, the ideal candidate is an independent, self-motivated leader who is comfortable setting priorities and representing an organization without close day-to-day supervision, while staying closely coordinated with global colleagues. This opportunity is best suited to someone who is resourceful, creative, curious, and willing to work hard and learn fast to help solve our most pressing global health and environmental challenges.

This position is preferably based in Bangkok and may require periodic travel to other locations in Thailand and periodic global travel; other locations within Thailand may be considered. This position reports to the ICCT's Emerging Markets Director.
