The posting

Background

The Revenue Mobilisation, Investment and Trade (REMIT) is a multi-year (2021–2028) programme funded by the UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and implemented by Adam Smith International (ASI). REMIT provides technical assistance to the Government of Pakistan to strengthen macroeconomic stability, improve growth conditions, and enhance poverty reduction efforts.

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) is establishing a dedicated Governance Reforms Unit (GRU) to strengthen policymaking, analytical support, and implementation oversight. The GRU will provide evidence-based assessments of priority economic issues and government proposals, using data analytics and policy research to evaluate policy options, economic implications, and implementation risks across key sectors.

A central part of this work is supporting the Prime Minister’s Economic Governance Reforms (PM EGR) through evidence-based policymaking, data analytics, and public-sector reform. The assignment will focus on collecting, synthesising, and analysing reliable data to inform policy decisions, assess reform options, and track implementation progress across priority economic sectors

Activity Context

The Government of Pakistan has prioritised transparent, accountable, and climate-resilient public financial management. As part of this agenda, REMIT is supporting the institutionalisation of Climate Budget Tagging (CBT) and Gender Budget Tagging (GDT) – systems for identifying, classifying, and reporting on climate- and gender-related public expenditures across all levels of government.

Following successful implementation at the federal level across three budget cycles (FY 2022–23 to FY 2024–25), and in line with the IMF's Extended Fund Facility (EFF) benchmarks, REMIT has expanded the initiative to all four provinces and two regions. The Ministry of Finance has requested REMIT to work with the provincial and regional governments of Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, Azad Jammu & Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan to carry out climate and gender budget tagging of their budgets. As part of this REMIT-supported activity, both regional Finance Departments have nominated focal persons, integrated CBT and GDT provisions into the Budget Call Circulars and conducted training for line agencies. Tagging of the non-development budget has been completed for both regions.

The remaining work covers tagging of development budgets (PC-1s), finalization of the FY 2026-27 tagged budget, preparation of climate and gender budget statements, FABS integration, and analytical reporting.

Job Summary

The Accounting Systems Specialist will be responsible for developing, maintaining, and overseeing the information technology infrastructure, databases, and analytical systems required to support climate and gender budget tagging, provincial budget allocations, data collection and analysis, simulation modelling, and document review.

Duties and Responsibilities

The Accounting Systems Specialist will undertake the following key responsibilities:

  • Collect, consolidate, and analyse provincial budgetary data and map public expenditures against climate- and gender-responsive classifications and tagging criteria.
  • Analyse provincial receipts and expenditures and develop financial and analytical models to assess relevant fiscal and policy indicators.
  • Coordinate and liaise with provincial departments, particularly the Finance and Planning & Development Departments, to ensure consistent application of climate and gender budget tagging methodologies, classifications, and coding arrangements.
  • Organize and support training workshops for government officials to strengthen their capacity in the application of tagging methodologies, coding procedures, data entry, validation, and reporting.
  • Develop financial models to assess the potential fiscal and economic impacts of changes in provincial taxes and other revenue measures, including income-related and sales tax measures where applicable.
  • Develop simulation models to assess the impact of alternative fiscal and policy decisions on relevant indicators used in the National Finance Commission (NFC) framework and intergovernmental fiscal transfers.
  • Develop, maintain, and improve databases and analytical tools required for processing, validating, analysing, and reporting climate- and gender-responsive budget information.
  • Support the integration of climate and gender tagging requirements with existing government accounting, budgeting, and financial management information systems.
  • Provide troubleshooting, system support, and technical assistance to users at provincial and national levels in relation to the climate and gender budget tagging application, databases, analytical tools, and associated reporting systems.
  • Ensure the integrity, consistency, security, and reliability of data used for budget tagging, fiscal analysis, financial modelling, and policy simulations.
