Experts to join our expert roster

WFD regularly collaborates with a range of technical experts, thematic specialists, and experienced facilitators to enhance the delivery of its democracy support programmes and the services provided by the new HMG Centre of Expertise on Democratic Governance & Elections it hosts.

WFD maintains an Expert Roster of verified and cleared experts, specialists, and facilitators which our staff in the UK and across the WFD network are able to commission for assignments from time to time.

As the new HMG Centre of Expertise moves into full implementation over the coming months, we anticipate an increased requirement for experts, specialists, and facilitators. As such WFD wishes to expand its existing Expert Roster and we are looking for additional individuals with relevant expertise and experience to apply to register with WFD's Expert Roster.

Successful applicants may be asked to sign a framework agreement to provide services from time to time on a consultancy basis.
