Programme Lead- Clean Air
1 day ago
The multi-disciplinary Clean Air team at CEEW generates data and evidence to drive scalable action and strengthen the capacity of governments and industries through institutional collaborations towards improving India’s air quality. The CA team works across seven different verticals: crop residue management, clean cooking, solid waste management, industrial pollution management, clean construction, air quality governance, and air quality data analytics & forecasting. The team’s research work is supported by five levers of change: building the capacity of government agencies, generating transparent and credible data, developing innovative solutions, demonstrating industrial leadership, and raising public demand for clean air.
The CA team seeks to hire a driven and passionate Programme Lead to build and expand our work on air quality governance and data analytics at the national, state, and city levels. The candidate should also be required to support work in other verticals as needed. This role involves a mix of managerial, technical and networking skills. The ideal candidate should have a deep understanding of the air quality policy frameworks and data infrastructure in India, as well as technical skills to do a deep dive into air quality and meteorology data. Further, the candidate should have excellent oral and written communication skills. An ideal candidate would have the capacity and experience to drive government engagements independently and can draft briefing notes and policy documents under tight deadlines.
