The Programme

The UK–Nigeria Growth Programme (UKNG) is a flagship UK Government initiative focused on progressing trade and investment opportunities. It targets the practical execution challenges that prevent commercially viable opportunities from moving forward.
Tetra Tech International Development Europe is establishing a flexible Expert Pool to support short, targeted inputs that strengthen feasibility, address deal specific obstacles, and help advance defined trade and investment opportunities towards execution.
We welcome Expressions of Interest from experts and consultants with experience of working in Nigeria or countries facing similar challenges as Nigeria.
Experts should be comfortable working in complex political-economy environments, engaging with senior government officials and private sector leaders, and delivering focused, time-bound outputs linked to real opportunities.
