* Subject: job opportunity: open development data (IATI)

  Hi folks,

 <shameless-recruitment-plug-with-apologies-for-cross-posting>

 We're looking to recruit someone to join our team at aidinfo and lead our
work on International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI).  IATI is an
international open data initiative that aims to greater transparency and
accountability of aid resources. It now is a critical time for IATI: with
the US recently joining we now have donors providing 80% of official aid
committed to being ‘IATI-compliant’, as well as many other NGOs, UN
agencies, private organisations etc. We now need to make it happen and
ensure it is effective

  The role will be to manage the IATI Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
secretariat function, which leads on development and management of the IATI
standard and infrastructure; supports donors, NGOs and private
organisations to publish open data; and facilitates the TAG membership – an
international community focussed on advancing aid transparency.

 This is a great opportunity to play a leading role in a large-scale
international open development data initiative. and help make it happen.

 Applications close on 4th May, so it's quite a short timeframe.
