Partnering for a sustainable ocean – The Role of Regional Ocean Governance in Implementing Sustainable Development Goal 14 (2017) REN 21 Global Status of Renewables Report (2014) Cover Letter Plain Text Cover Letter To whom it may concern, I am writing to apply for the position of Junior Environmental Policy Analyst at the OECD. I am a passionate and motivated researcher with 8 years of experience working on a range of environmental policy issues, including mining and resources, electricity markets and regulation, and renewable energy policy. Most recently, I have specialised in ocean issues, in particular national policies and regional cooperation for ocean sustainability and the ongoing UN negotiations for a treaty on high seas biodiversity. My research and writing skills are evidenced in my extensive and varied publications. In addition to publishing 30 peer-reviewed papers on a range of topics, I have experience writing communications for different audiences, including working papers, submissions to government and regulatory bodies, media articles, and press releases. I am a confident public speaker and regularly speak at conferences, workshops, and invited lectures. As a friendly and easy-going person, I quickly form effective working relationships with colleagues and collaborators. I currently work with a team of around 10 people across 3 organisations to develop the Partnership for Regional Ocean Governance (PROG). At REN21, I managed a global community of experts, while previously at a small NGO I was responsible for hiring and managing consultants who provided reports and workshops for our projects. At the same time, I regularly undertake solo projects on my own initiative, write papers, and produce reports with limited oversight. I am organised and efficient in my time management, using innovative tools to automate and simplify organisational tasks. Impressed by how such tools have reduced my bureaucratic load, the ocean team at IDDRI has enthusiastically adopted them, allowing us to dedicate more time and energy to substantive research and project development. I regularly represent IDDRI and our work to high-level representatives at official meetings at UN headquarters and at related side events, workshops, and meetings. I also represent IDDRI in coordinating with external funders and partners, including government agencies, research institutes and UN bodies I also have a strong track record in advocacy and outreach. As a keen user of social media and other digital tools, I have built an extended professional network through which I am able to promote and disseminate our work. For example, I recently distributed a flagship publication to almost 9,000 followers on Twitter, and to stakeholders and practitioners worldwide through mailing lists, personal contacts, and an op-ed in The Conversation. As a result, I was invited to write a comment piece for Nature, was interviewed by various news outlets. Thank you for taking the time to consider my application. I believe that I can make an invaluable contribution to the OECD's work on environmental policies and I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards, Welcome.

The OECD Environment Directorate (ENV), in line with the strategic objectives of the Secretary‑General, provides relevant and timely information, analysis and advice to support governments in identifying and implementing the environmental policies needed to support a cleaner, more resourceefficient, lowcarbon, resilient and green growth path. The Directorate currently comprises approximately 165 staff members working across a broad range of issues such as: green growth, climate change, biodiversity, water, ecoinnovation, resource productivity and waste, environmental policy tools and evaluation, safety of chemicals, biotechnology and nanomaterials, sustainable finance and linkages between environment and tax, agriculture, energy, transport, development assistance, trade and investment policies.
