Introduction
The mission of the Green Climate Fund is to assist developing countries to respond to climate change while bringing prosperity to their people.
Established in 2010, the GCF invests in transformational climate projects in the developing world. The Fund makes an ambitious contribution to global climate action and channels significant financial resources into developing countries to help build low-emission and climate-resilient societies. It is country-driven and undertakes actions that reflect the circumstances of each country concerned and its national aspirations. The GCF is a key enabler of the 2015 Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
Since its establishment, the GCF has approved 209 projects in 123 countries and has committed USD 11.4 billion in climate finance. In addition, it has built up an extensive program to support developing countries to identify their needs, in particular, those who are most vulnerable to climate change impacts.
The GCF’s diverse workforce is advancing its mission from its headquarters in South Korea. Our talented staff makes unique contributions to the Fund, enriching the institution through their combined expertise and professional commitment.
Context
Global warming, reaching 1.5°C in the near-term, would cause unavoidable increases in multiple climate hazards and present multiple risks to Ecosystems and People. The latest IPCC report reiterates the close relationship between ecosystems’ health and vulnerability of people: ecosystems degradation increases the vulnerability of people. It also emphasizes that loss of ecosystems and their services has cascading and long-term impacts on people globally, especially for most vulnerable including Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities who depend directly on ecosystems to meet basic needs. Nature-based solutions can address the climate crisis, land degradation and biodiversity loss, as well as contribute to addressing a variety of social issues, such as water scarcity management and poverty alleviation. The recent convergence between biodiversity and climate is highlighted by the UNFCCC Sharm El Sheikh Implementation Plan as well as the Kunming-Montreal Biodiversity Framework; the latter including ambitious targets of protecting 30% of the world’s lands/inland waters/coastal areas/oceans by 2030. The State of Finance for Nature report estimates that finance flows to nature-based solutions would need to more than double by 2025 to USD 384 billion and more than triple to USD 484 billion by 2030 to keep climate change to below 1.5°C, halt biodiversity loss and achieve land degradation neutrality. There is an urgent need to reorient and realign the way public finance is planned and disbursed and catalyze private finance at scale for nature.
Position Objective
The Senior Ecosystems Management Specialist, reporting to the Climate Impact Area Lead, is responsible for the expansion and evolution of GCF’s ecosystems and ecosystem services result area, and widely, the ecosystems transition.
Working closely with other senior sector specialists at DMA, as well as with climate investment managers and officers at the Private Sector Facility of the GCF; accredited entities, national designated authorities and other internal/external stakeholders, the Senior Ecosystems Management Specialist provides thought leadership for programming the pipeline of investments in ecosystems and ecosystem services, thus expanding the Ecosystems portfolio in accordance with the Updated Strategic Plan of the GCF.
