BACKGROUND
The Global Water Partnership (GWP) is a multi-stakeholder action network dedicated to working with countries towards the equitable, sustainable, and efficient management of water resources. The network is global and is managed by Global Water Partnership Organisation (GWPO), an inter-governmental Organisation headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden and hosted by the Government of Sweden.
Acting as the Secretariat for the entire global Network, GWPO convenes, facilitates, brokers, and delivers coordinated action by government and non-government actors, including the private sector. GWP's vision is a water-secure world.
More information:
www.gwp.org. The GWPO Secretariat team is comprised of a dynamic group of 17 staff, plus external consultants, working both in Stockholm and from remote locations, who work to support the work of all GWP stakeholders, including the GWP Regional Water Partnerships (RWPs), Country Water Partnerships and institutional partners. The global Secretariat's financial management services are a critical element of the GWP Network's architecture, working with financial specialists in GWP's accredited RWPs and finance counterparts in the Country Water Partnerships.
The CFO role is critical in ensuring excellent coordination, unquestioned integrity, and prominent levels of professional quality in all GWPO financial management practices and processes. This work ensures that GWPO builds and maintains trust with all financial and funding partners, and that all GWP local, regional, and global development partners can contribute effectively to activities and results on the ground, leading to greater water security. All GWP partners and stakeholders must be able to trust in GWPO's transparent, auditable, and reliable financial management practices and processes, which in turn support the integrity of financial processes across the entire network.
Within GWPO, we maintain high quality financial information and reporting systems, and across our regional and country teams, we build excellence in financial management through combining capacity building with accreditation. We continuously invest in and sustain good financial practice and knowledge sharing throughout the network.
We are now looking to identify an experienced, dedicated, and mission-driven Chief Financial Officer (CFO) who will, as part of the GWPO small but high-powered secretariat team, help us further sustain, strengthen, and build our financial and administrative management systems and practices, within GWPO and across our global network.

The CFO also has oversight responsibilities to ensure solid financial management within the 13 accredited GWP Regional Water Partnerships.
