SUMMARY 

BCG is seeking a highly experienced Team Leader that will be responsible for providing on-the-ground leadership, strategic direction, technical expertise, and operational oversight for the PROGRESS program based in Manila, Philippines. 

SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT 

Promoting Growth, Resilience, Economic Stability and Sustainability in the Philippines (PROGRESS) is Australia’s new 5-year, AUD45M, flagship inclusive economic growth program, funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT). PROGRESS will elevate Australia’s direct and visible engagement on economic cooperation in the Philippines, in support of the Philippine Development Plan (2023–2028). As a pragmatic and responsive partner, Australia intends to deliver catalytic investments across a range of economic sectors through PROGRESS. These investments will support the Philippines economy by addressing issues and sectors strategic to the Philippines and Australia, such as enhancements to the business environment, support for targeted economic reforms, and support for the growth of priority sectors such as clean energy and resources. PROGRESS will also seek to develop strong ties with Philippine business leaders and key national agencies, legislators, academia and think tanks, that will create opportunities to forge connections and achieve results in areas critical to the Philippines’ economic development. The objective of PROGRESS is to bolster inclusive, sustainable and resilient economic growth as a pragmatic and responsive partner of the Philippines. PROGRESS has two mutually reinforcing EOPOs to be achieved by 2031 each linked to two workstreams: (1) private sector growth and (2) economic management. 

1. Private Sector Growth (EOPO1): Targeted reforms introduced to improve the business 
   enabling environment and drive private sector growth. 
2. Economic Management (EOPO2): Strengthened economic management that supports 
   inclusive, sustainable and resilient economic growth, including in priority sectors. 
    

SUMMARY OF THE POSITION 

The Team Leader has primary responsibility for leading the successful delivery of PROGRESS, reporting to BCG’s Delivery Co-Leads and DFAT, managing the PROGRESS team of nine, and working closely with DFAT’s Senior Program Manager for PROGRESS, based in the Australian Embassy in Manila. The role covers program planning and execution, managing relationships with the Government of the Philippines (GPH), DFAT, The Asia Foundation (TAF), and other stakeholders as well as monitoring and reporting progress. The Team Leader also manages budgeting and service delivery under the DFAT contract, working to ensure the program achieves PROGRESS' End of Program Outcomes.
