Pavitt Public Finance
International PFM Expert
About
Gregg Pavitt is a public financial management specialist with over 25 years of experience helping governments in Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and the Pacific strengthen how they plan, allocate, and account for public resources.
He provides technical assistance and advisory services in six core areas: PFM studies and assessments, public expenditure management (PEM), domestic revenue mobilisation (DRM), integrated financial management systems (IFMIS), public investment management (PIM), and International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS).
Gregg has served as Team Leader and Key Expert on programmes funded by the EU (EuropeAid), World Bank, DFAT, USAID, and DFID/FCDO — both in long-term embedded roles within Ministries of Finance and on targeted short-term assignments. He is known for effective policy dialogue with government counterparts, practical reform design, and building national capacity that outlasts the project cycle.
International consulting firms and development organisations engage Gregg for his ability to mobilise quickly, manage multi-disciplinary teams, and deliver reliably within the compliance and reporting frameworks that donor-funded programmes demand.
