Experience or sound understanding of transport economics, for example in relation to feasibility studies, cost-benefit analysis, tariff issues, financial/economic appraisal or sector financing, would be beneficial. Location: GOPA Tech headquarters in Bad Homburg, Germany, near Frankfurt am Main. Start date: as soon as possible.

  • At least 5 years of relevant professional experience in the transport sector;
  • Demonstrated experience in international consulting, preferably in donor-funded transport projects;
  • Experience in the acquisition, preparation and management of consultancy projects;
  • Knowledge of donor procedures and requirements, e.g. GIZ, KfW, EIB, EU, World Bank or similar;
  • Generalist experience in several thematic fields, e.g. regional/national corridors (road/rail), urban transport, public transport, (green) freight transport, sustainable transport or green mobility;
  • A sound understanding of transport economics, e.g. feasibility studies, cost-benefit analysis, financial/economic appraisal, tariffs or transport sector financing, would be beneficial;
  • Business-fluent language skills in Spanish and English; candidates must be able to work professionally in both languages;
  • Strong writing, communication, networking and teamwork skills;
  • Willingness and ability to travel internationally;
  • Work experience abroad in countries relevant to international development cooperation.
