Summary
The report details the transition of the Green Climate Fund Secretariat from its initial structure to an updated model consisting of four divisions and three offices. As of September 30, 2014, 19 of 38 approved international positions and 7 of 10 administrative positions had been filled. The Secretariat is implementing new recruitment guidelines to improve gender and geographical balance, as current staffing shows a higher proportion of men (54%) and personnel from developed countries (54%).
Key insights
- The Secretariat updated its organizational structure from five divisions to four divisions and three offices to enhance collaboration. The General Counsel, the Risk Manager, and the office of the Secretary to the Board now report directly to the Executive Director.
- As of September 30, 2014, 19 out of 38 approved international positions were filled, including five at the Director level and 15 specialists. Seven out of 10 approved administrative or general service positions had also been filled.
- The Secretariat identified a need for better gender and geographical diversity, as 54% of appointed staff are men and 54% are from developed countries. To address this, new guidelines require shortlists to include at least one woman and one person from a developing country Party, or the position must be re-advertised.
- The Secretariat is proposing the addition of new positions for 2015, specifically an Internal Auditor, a Social and Gender Expert, and five Associate Professional Officers.
