Executive Associate

The Caribbean Centre for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (CCREEE) is a regional Inter-Governmental Organisation (IGO) agreed upon by the Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) at its Thirty-Sixth Conference and becoming operational in 2018 under its Inter-Governmental Agreement to foster regional collaboration and promote renewable energy and energy efficiency development, investments, markets and industries in the Caribbean. Its vision is to transform the energy landscape of the Caribbean into a sustainable, affordable and climate resilient sector focused on improving the lives of its people.

CCREEE operates as the regional hub for sustainable energy activities. It seeks to address energy security, improve access to modern energy services, and promote climate change mitigation. The Centre works closely with the CARICOM Secretariat and a wider global network of sustainable energy Centres for Small Island Developing States, while creating an enabling environment for sustainable energy development through capacity building, knowledge sharing, energy sector planning, policy advocacy, technical assistance, and project development support.

CCREEE engages with governments, private sector entities, and regional and international organisations to drive the transition towards sustainable energy in the Caribbean. By focusing on innovative solutions and regional cooperation, the Centre plays an important role in improving access to modern energy services, achieving energy sovereignty, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and enhancing the resilience of Caribbean communities to the impacts of climate change.

To strengthen the operational effectiveness of the Office of the Executive Director (OED), CCREEE seeks to recruit an Executive Associate who will serve as a trusted coordination and executive support professional within the Office.
