Head of Sustainability Stewardship

London, United Kingdom State Street Full time

Head of Sustainability Stewardship - Managing Director (State Street Global Advisors)

We have seen a maturing of certain of our clientsâ positioning in relation to sustainability over the last couple of years. This has resulted in varying expectations from different clients in relation to the expectations of their asset managersâ stewardship offerings.  While some clients do not prioritize sustainability outcomes in stewardship, others have expressed the view to us that driving sustainability outcomes is a priority for them and inquired if we could develop a solution for them. Based on feedback received from these clients and building on our commitment to investor choice, we are creating a new Sustainability Stewardship Service, to support those clients who wish for more active engagement with portfolio companies on sustainability topics. This new service will be available for institutional clients to opt in globally and will include a greater focus on climate and other sustainability related topics. The individual in this role will lead a team which will be responsible for: (1) developing and implementing the client proxy voting policy that will be aligned with the new Sustainability Stewardship Service, (2) conducting company engagements that reflect participating client views, and (3) representing the perspectives of this effort in broader sustainability research and product offerings.

This role is based in London and will report to the Global Head of Asset Stewardship.

Responsibilities  

In this role you will:

  • Crystalize the views of participating clients to establish sustainability priorities and emerging sustainability topics
  • Lead the development and implementation of a client proxy voting policy that will be  aligned with the new Sustainability Stewardship Service
  • Conduct company engagements that reflect participating client views on sustainability priority topics and represent the opt-in assets
  • Represent the perspectives of this effort in broader sustainability research and product offerings
  • Integrate broader sustainability research and insights into policy development and industry efforts
  • Engage with and provide reporting to participating clients to ensure transparency on the activities of the service
  • Represent participating clientsâ views in relevant industry groups, publications, and other forums
  • Develop and manage a team to ensure the success of the service


 

Job Requirements

  • 15+ years of experience in asset stewardship, including company engagement
  • Strong understanding of sustainability related topics, including regulatory and industry initiatives and understanding of the rapidly evolving regulatory environment and client demand
  • Proven ability to effectively navigate an increasingly complex environment
  • Proven ability to build a high-performing team to achieve desired results. The candidate should have a track record of effectively managing individuals, developing talent, and leading initiatives from start to finish.
  • Exceptionally strong written and verbal communications skills with an engaging personality
