Senior Policy Expert (Scoping Exercise & Quality Assurance) – Climate Budget Tagging

Background

The Revenue Mobilisation, Investment and Trade (REMIT) is a multi-year (2021–2028) programme funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and implemented by Adam Smith International (ASI). REMIT supports Pakistan in strengthening macroeconomic management, improving domestic resource mobilisation, and embedding resilience and sustainability in its public financial management systems.

A central part of this work is the development and institutionalisation of Climate Budget Tagging (CBT) , which systematically classifies, tracks, and reports climate-relevant public expenditures at the federal and provincial levels. CBT aims to strengthen transparency, accountability, and alignment of public spending with Pakistan's commitments under frameworks such as the Paris Agreement, Sendai Framework, and the Sustainable Development Goals.

Activity Context

Federal Component : Development of analytic reports from the climate budget tagged data and methodologies for tagging federal budgets, focusing on subsidies, SOEs, and climate-negative expenditures; pilot applications; and integration into fiscal reporting.

Provincial and Regional Component : Conducting structured scoping exercises across the four provinces and two regions (GB and AJK) to assess feasibility, costs, institutional readiness, and alternative implementation strategies. The scoping exercise is critical to ensuring CBT roll-out is context-sensitive, operationally feasible, and politically acceptable across Pakistan's diverse subnational governments.

Job Summary

The Senior Policy Expert (Scoping Exercise & Quality Assurance) will lead and oversee the design, execution, and quality assurance of the CBT scoping exercise for provincial and regional governments. The expert will engage with stakeholders, ensure robust institutional mapping and political economy analysis, and develop actionable recommendations for phased implementation. They will also ensure quality and consistency across scoping reports and contribute to developing operational plans for CBT roll-out. The expert will also provide inputs into budget tagging of SOEs and subsidies.

Duties and Responsibilities

The Senior Policy Expert will:

Design the CBT scoping methodology and carry out its implementation ensuring consistency and quality across provinces and regions.

Lead and carry out consultations with provincial and regional governments and key stakeholders.

Conduct institutional mapping, capacity assessments, and political economy analyses relevant to climate budget tagging.

Develop recommendations on implementation modalities, sequencing, and resourcing.

Ensure the production of high-quality scoping reports with actionable operational plans.

Collaborate with REMIT and government counterparts to secure buy-in and report on the feasibility of recommended course of action.

Contribute to the integration of scoping findings into broader CBT implementation planning.
