24/06/2021 - EFRAG announces in-kind secondment positions to support its team working on the development of draft European sustainability reporting standards
Stakeholders interested in sustainability reporting can contribute to EFRAG’s interim technical work on the development of draft European sustainability reporting standards, through in-kind secondments of staff. Expression of interest is requested by 9 July 2021. Read the detailed call for expression of interest here.
The European Commission’s proposal for a Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) published on 21 April 2021, envisages the adoption of EU sustainability reporting standards. The draft standards would be developed by EFRAG.
EFRAG started the interim technical work with the PTF-NFRS continuing under the name Project Task Force on European sustainability reporting standards (PTF-ESRS). The kick-off of this new phase took place in the first half of June. Several entities and organisations have already made experienced staff available on an in-kind basis for this process, but the option to join is still open.We are seeking sustainability reporting professionals, initially for a period of 9 to12 months, to give project management and technical support to the PTF-ESRS. If your organisation is interested to be part of the fast-evolving sustainability developments in Europe, we welcome the opportunity to receive from you a detailed expression of interest.
We are looking for sustainability reporting professionals that can at a minimum contribute 50% of their time. They would be part of the support team for the PTF-ESRS and be expected to work from their existing location, and occasionally, COVID -19 circumstances permitting, may have some meetings in Brussels.
If you are interested in seconding a member of your staff to EFRAG, please send your expression of interest together with the CV of your staff member proposed as secondee to EFRAG’s CEO Saskia Slomp, by email to nominations@efrag.org, by 9 July 2021.
