Senior Specialist Budget Systems (Methodology & 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 provides technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan to strengthen macroeconomic stability, improve growth conditions, and enhance poverty reduction efforts.

A key component of this support is the development and institutionalisation of Climate Budget Tagging (CBT)—a mechanism to systematically classify, track, and report public expenditures contributing to climate mitigation, adaptation, disaster risk reduction, and gender responsiveness.

Pakistan's CBT initiative aligns with commitments under the IMF's Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF), the Paris Agreement, and the Sendai Framework by promoting transparent, data-driven budgeting that supports resilient development outcomes.

Activity Context
The CBT initiative involves developing robust methodologies for additional elements of federal level expenditures including subsidies, SOEs, and climate-negative expenditures, piloting these applications. In addition, it will support conducting variance analyses on tagged data, and supporting scoping exercises to plan for provincial and regional roll-out.

The initiative seeks to embed climate considerations into routine public financial management, improve policy alignment, and enhance the credibility of climate finance reporting.

Job Summary
The Senior Specialist Budget Systems (Methodology & Quality Assurance) will support the design, refinement, and quality assurance of CBT methodologies applied to federal level subsidies, SOEs and climate negative expenditures and climate budget tagging of provincial budgets. The role will ensure that methodologies are conceptually sound, operationally feasible, and aligned with international best practices. The specialist will work with the team of specialists to develop climate budget report formats and also provide quality assurance for data outputs, coordinate stakeholder validation processes, and support capacity building on tagging tools and formats.

Duties and Responsibilities

  • Develop climate budget reporting formats and support testing with data

  • Support the development of CBT tagging methodologies, including for federal subsidies, SOEs, and climate-negative expenditures.

  • Ensure methodological alignment with international standards (e.g., UNFCCC, OECD Rio Markers) and Pakistan's institutional frameworks.

  • Conduct quality assurance reviews of tagging classifications, data outputs, and reporting templates.

  • Collaborate with technical teams to develop guidance materials and tools for implementing CBT methodologies.

  • Support structured consultations and validation workshops with key stakeholders.

  • Provide inputs into the scoping exercise at the provincial level and carry out technical review of the scoping reports

  • Contribute to the training and capacity-building of federal and provincial staff on application of CBT tools.
    Advise on the integration of CBT into budget call circulars and fiscal reporting formats.
