Nature Positive Lead

1 month ago


Oxford, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom Global Canopy Full time

Global Canopy is a data-driven not for profit that targets the market forces destroying nature. We do this by improving transparency and accountability. We provide innovative open-access data, clear metrics, and actionable insights to leading companies, financial institutions, governments and campaigning organisations worldwide. 

Nature-related Finance: Nature loss poses material risks to financial institutions, as studies show more than half of global GDP is moderately or highly dependent on nature. Lack of high-quality nature-related data is one of the biggest obstacles holding financial institutions back from addressing nature-related risks. Global Canopy innovates to increase the scope, quality and accessibility of freely available data. We work to enable investors, lenders, insurers, financial regulators and others in the sector to identify and mitigate their impacts and dependencies on nature – and to seize the opportunity of investing in nature-positive solutions. Our work on nature-related finance centres on three collaborative flagship projects, the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), ENCORE and The Little Book of Investing in Nature.

The role: overview 

You will be a strong technical leader in the nature positive space who excels at shaping and delivering on strategy within a vibrant international non-profit, and who can underpin cutting-edge and impactful programming with technical rigour and excellence.  

You will lead, manage and grow Global Canopy's growing Nature Positive portfolio, taking on the leadership of our contributions to a number of market-leading initiatives and partnerships in this fast-evolving space. This includes strategic collaborations with UNEP, UNEP Finance Initiative, Cornell University, Oxford University, the TNFD and the ENCORE Partnership which is now developing an 'opportunity filter' on the widely used platform.  

You will lead a small team of researchers and analysts, and ensure effective project management and quality delivery. You will work closely with our partners and with colleagues in our Nature-related Finance programme and across Global Canopy to develop and evolve our strategies to help scale and mainstream nature positive finance. 

We welcome both UK based and remote applicants.

Requirements

To be successful in this role,  these are the things that will matter the most: 

  • Strong technical and engagement experience in the nature-related finance space, particularly on approaches to catalyse nature positive outcomes.
  • Proven track-record delivering, and managing remote teams to deliver, high quality research and analysis in an applied setting, particularly with finance sector and policymaker stakeholders.
  • A strong network in the nature positive (and wider nature finance) space and effective partnership-building and management skills. 
  • An ability to strategise and fundraise by inspiring others with your ideas about nature positive impacts and the potential to make change at scale. 

Skills and experience:

  • Experience working on nature positive and nature finance themes from within consulting, academia, an NGO or a business/financial service institution. 
  • A self-starter with an ability to design, manage and conduct complex research projects. 
  • University degree in environmental accounting, finance or natural sciences or relevant equivalent applied knowledge.
  • Knowledge of evolving market practices and the international discourse on nature related opportunities and nature positive in relation to corporate and finance institutional practices. 
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to communicate complex nature-related finance concepts precisely in writing.
  • International experience and languages of the regions we work in are both positives.

At Global Canopy, we value diversity and inclusion. You can read our diversity statement on our website. We encourage applications from all backgrounds and are committed to having a team with a diverse set of skills, experiences and abilities. We are committed to reducing systemic barriers in our recruitment processes. 

Global Canopy works on issues of tropical deforestation. We are particularly interested in strengthening our team to include those with a background from forest regions such as Latin America and South East Asia. We welcome applications from people from these regions.

Global Canopy is an inclusive employer and accommodations will be made to allow anyone who requires additional support to apply for this role. Please get in touch with us if you require any additional support.
