Office/Unit/Project Description
Globally the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) partners with people at all levels of society to help build nations that can withstand crisis, and drive and sustain growth that improves the quality of life for everyone. On the ground in more than 170 countries and territories, UNDP offers a global perspective, as well as local insights to help empower lives and build resilient nations.
The UNDP Tax for SDGs Initiative is managed by the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS’s) Sustainable Finance Hub (SFH), with resource persons embedded in the SDG Finance Teams in Amman, Bangkok, Istanbul, Panama and Pretoria.
The UNDP Tax for SDGs Initiative has a particular emphasis on linking tax administration and tax and fiscal policies with the broader SDGs. Building on UNDP Country Office portfolios and already existing engagements with Ministries, UNDP brings a stronger focus on the role of tax and fiscal policy in achieving Agenda 2030. The initiative places a particular focus on reducing inequalities in tax and fiscal policy as well as taking forward climate action and environmental goals, and health outcomes. Representing the views of developing countries in the global normative tax discussions is critical and to this effect the UNDP Tax for SDGs Initiative will also work to bring evidence and perspectives from developing countries into the regional and international discussions on taxation.
Tax for SDGs Initiative is looking for a full-time Communications Analyst to plan, implement and coordinate the initiative’s communication efforts and ensure strategic and impactful outreach on the initiative’s work.
Institutional Arrangement
The Communications Analyst will report to the Head of Tax for SDGs (based in New York).
Collaboration and coordination with the rest of the UNDP Tax Team, Regional Bureaus and Country Offices as well as OECD Colleagues at TIWB Secretariat will be required.
