The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world.  Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental challenges. From improving economic performance and creating jobs to fostering strong education and fighting international tax evasion, we provide a unique forum and knowledge hub for data and analysis, exchange of experiences, best-practice sharing, and advice on public policies and international standard-setting.

• The International Energy Agency (IEA) is an intergovernmental organisation with 32 member countries committed to advancing security of energy supply, economic growth and environmental sustainability through energy policy co-operation. The IEA operates as an autonomous body within the framework of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. Both the OECD and the IEA seek opportunities to work with an increasing number of non-member countries of growing importance to the world economy. The Agency aims to foster the contribution of the energy sector to economic development and environmental sustainability.
• The IEA Communications and Digital Office (CDO) develops and implements the Agency’s communication strategy across its digital platforms. It is responsible for the production and dissemination of IEA data and analysis, oversees the Agency’s digitalisation strategy, public relations and social media.
• CDO is looking for a Digital Communications and Web Developer who will report to the Head of the Production Team to contribute to a growing portfolio of tools, applications and components in support of the IEA website and its related infrastructure. The selected candidate will work closely with other developers in the unit and will regularly interact with colleagues across the IEA. They will also work regularly with outside consultants and developers. The selected candidate would be responsible for maintenance and support of existing applications, development of new tools, and contribution to new and ongoing projects.
• This position requires a creative problem-solver who can work independently in a fast-paced, dynamic environment, while also navigating the political and diplomatic considerations of a high-profile international organisation. Flexibility and a willingness to learn are essential as the role involves working with a range of different technologies across different applications and projects.
