This position is short term consultant, based in Amman.
The Water Efficiency and Conservation (WEC) Activity aims to increase water-use efficiency and conservation in Jordan by applying commercial incentives across the agriculture, industrial, and municipal sectors, and by strengthening the Government of Jordan’s governance over irrigated agriculture. WEC also directly supports the National Conveyor Project (NCP), including the NCP Management Unit and technical assistance toward the NCP Readiness agenda related to treated wastewater. WEC plays a catalytic role in bridging the gap between new water supply and responsible water demand, helping Jordan translate policy into practice, complement infrastructure investments with operational readiness, and foster a national culture of water conservation that supports long-term resilience. By preparing institutions, large consumers, and farming communities to use new water efficiently, WEC creates the enabling conditions for the NCP to succeed and maximizes the impact of desalination investments
