Brussels, Belgique Transport & Environment Temps plein

Do you want to play your part in changing transport’s climate impact and continued reliance on fossil fuels? Transport & Environment (T&E) is looking for a talented and dynamic Deputy Aviation Director to join the team to support the implementation of T&E’s work on addressing aviation’s climate impact. The Deputy Director would oversee the implementation of the team’s strategy as well as lead T&E’s program to build effective pricing policies and investment signals towards the right alternatives. This pricing programme is part of a wider strategy to end transport’s reliance on kerosene in aviation and promoting industrial policies to deploy the right technologies to minimise the environmental impact of the sector.

Aviation is a challenging sector to decarbonise. We need this position to support the execution of T&E’s long term strategy in a rapidly growing team. The Deputy Director would directly report to the Aviation Director, providing guidance on the strategic direction of the aviation team’s work plan, while ensuring the current objectives and projects are successfully implemented. In addition, this position will require policy knowledge to coordinate technical and political work at the EU and national level to effectively price aviation emissions. We need convincing and compelling economic, political and legal analysis, reports and presentations to convert complex information into advocacy and media friendly material. Finally, we need to convince European lawmakers to set ambitious but achievable goals to drive the sector from being the fastest growing climate problem to one of sustainability.

The role will involve:

- Supporting the Aviation Director in the implementation of the aviation team’s projects, by turning long term goals into short term objectives, managing budgets and staff resources;
- Coordinating T&E’s strategy in national offices in close collaboration with the National Office Directors, when it comes to addressing aviation’s climate impact in order to ensure alignment with the overall aviation program;
- Providing strategic input and guidance to the Director on political strategies and fundraising efforts;
- Developing T&E’s advocacy strategy towards EU and national regulators, politicians and media on carbon pricing and industrial policy for aviation, including researching, analysing and communicating effectively relevant technical, economic and legal information to relevant audiences;
- Contributing to T&E’s overall aviation strategy, identifying and working on key EU and national regulations to accelerate carbon pricing (aviation EU ETS and other pricing tools) and investment in clean technologies.
- Building and maintaining contact with policy-makers and T&E members working in this field;
- Leading the work on building formal and informal coalitions with key aviation industry players, research institutes, partner NGOs;
- Identifying, commissioning and delivering impactful research tailored to the needs of the EU and national policy campaigns;
- Support the overall functioning of the team;
- Five to seven years of relevant experience of managing projects and/or staff in either the aviation sector, energy sector, EU or government advocacy, preferably on economic topics;
- Strong interpersonal and team-working skills, and a willingness to develop a network in the aviation sector;
- Excellent coordination skills, with an ability to engage with, build and manage multi-stakeholder coalitions;
- Ability to deliver to tight deadlines; eager to learn, with a positive and optimistic attitude when faced with challenges;
- The confidence to think and act with initiative, to engage and influence policy-makers of different stripes, industry representatives and other stakeholders at the highest level;
- The ability and motivation to learn technical, economic and legal information, to independently develop new political, economic or legal arguments and evidence and use them to convince key stakeholders;
- Project management skills;
- Good writing, communication and presentation skills;
- Having an academic background in economics is a plus;

This position is advertised as a permanent, full-time position based in Brussels. While we offer a flexible working environment, there is an expectation that there are at least two days per week spent in the office.

The start date would be as soon as possible.

The salary package depends on experience. We are an equal opportunities employer and offer competitive salary and benefits.
