Job description 
The Global Shield against Climate Risks (GS) was launched by the G7 under Germany’s presidency in 2022 in close partnership with the Vulnerable Twenty Group of Finance Ministers (V20). Through this collaborative partnership, the V20 and the G7 want to scale up further action and support to address the urgent needs of vulnerable people and countries facing increasing risks of losses and damages from climate change. The GS aims to provide more and better financial protection, and thus enable quick and reliable funding before or just after disasters happen, and protect governments, communities, businesses, and households against the impacts of disasters. To achieve its objective, the GS will facilitate evidence-based and inclusive analyses of countries’ protection gaps, upon which countries will be able to submit requests to a flexible, global Financing Structure which will mobilize the needed support for more systematic financial protection.The GS Secretariat will deliver technical, logistical and coordinative functions for the implementation of the GS. This entails support for the political leadership of the GS by the GS Board, the coordination of technical and implementation work via the GS Coordination Hub (GS-CH), and advisory services to GS partner countries via the GS Technical Advisory Group (TAG).Information on the project and the topic can be found at: www.globalshield.org
