Background
E3G is an independent think tank with a global outlook.

Develop and provide political analysis and thought leadership on climate and energy politics in CEE and act as a focal point and resource within E3G for these issues.
Develop and manage stakeholder relationships and collaboration to accelerate the decarbonisation of key sectors in CEE. Convene and manage nonstate actor networks and coalitions from CEE, such as the
Visegrad+ for Renewable Energy Platform.
Advocacy including participation in meetings with external stakeholders such as MEPs, the European Commission, national governments, and civil society organisations, and representing E3G in stakeholder discussions and workshops.
Occasional European travel may be required.
