Coordinator: Air Quality

Application deadline: 2025-02-16

Position Overview:

This Action Area Coordinator position offers an exciting opportunity to lead Action Area B (AAB), one of ICIMOD's six Action Areas (AA), specifically focused on Stimulating Action for Clean Air across the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH). This important new position is responsible for managing the AAB and delivering AAB-specific results as committed to in ICIMOD’s Medium-Term Action Plan V (MTAP V): Embracing Change and Accelerating Impact (2023–2026). AAB is part of Strategic Group (SG) 1, one of ICIMOD’s three SGs. The position reports directly to the Strategic Group Lead (SGL).

We are seeking a strong manager with excellent organisational and multitasking skills, as well as technical expertise in all aspects of air pollution and air quality management. This role is ideal for someone skilled in planning and coordinating multiple concurrent workstreams, including budgets and personnel management, while maintaining a strong focus on delivering outcomes and impacts.

Background

The Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) region stretches 3,500 km across Asia, spanning eight countries – Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan. Encompassing high-altitude mountain ranges, mid-hills, and plains, the zone is vital for the food, water, and energy security of up to two billion people and is a habitat for countless irreplaceable species. It is also acutely fragile – and frontline to the impacts of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. 

The International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD), based in Kathmandu, Nepal, is an international organisation established in 1983, that is working to make this critical region greener, more inclusive and climate resilient.
