NORCAP Carbon Finance Expert - Energy and Environment

NORCAP’s mission is to improve aid to protect and empower people affected by crises and climate change. With expertise in the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding sectors, we collaborate with local, national and international partners on finding solutions that meet the needs of people at risk. 

 
We do this by: 

• Supporting humanitarian, development and peacebuilding initiatives that protect and empower people 
• Improving impact at the global and local level through joint projects with partners and stakeholders 
• Providing expertise and developing capacity that enable partners to meet the needs of people in fragile situations and crises 
• Strengthening the global system that we are part of through support for leadership, coordination and policy development 
• Building bridges between the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding sectors 

NORCAP, with its expanding energy and environment portfolio, is at the forefront of supporting the sector and its partners in their transition towards cleaner energy and more sustainable strategies in both development and humanitarian assistance. The Energy and Environment team is proactively advancing in thematic areas that are necessary and applicable to the evolving landscape of humanitarian energy access in displacement settings.  

As part of this strategy, we are recruiting Carbon Finance Experts who will contribute to the development and implementation of carbon finance mechanisms that unlock investment in clean energy technologies and approaches across humanitarian operations. This includes support to energy access initiatives in off-grid and fragile contexts through integration with carbon markets and results-based climate finance.
