This is an incredible opportunity to use your significant knowledge and experience in impact investment or sustainable finance to deliver real world impact in an exciting emerging area. The scale of the challenge facing nature requires game changing programmes.
As part of our Climate Solutions Partnership with HSBC and the World Resources Institute, WWF-UK has created a Nature-based Solutions Accelerator (NbS). The Accelerator is founded on a shared ambition to help remove the barriers to widespread and large-scale adoption of nature-based solutions.
As Finance Specialist, you will collaborate with colleagues to deliver our workstream on bankable NbS, supporting specific NbS projects around the world through the Accelerator to develop their case for investment through technical assistance in defined topics. You will also be involved in mapping and tracking opportunities for finance for NbS, and convening stakeholders to inform best practice. We will look to you to create a strong external network to build the profile and credibility of the Accelerator and implement a strategic approach to partnership identification and development, including thought leadership and advice on the formation of new partnerships involving NbS.
To help drive this work to deliver benefits to society and to biodiversity, you will possess significant knowledge and experience in impact investment, sustainable finance or multilateral funding in the social or environmental space. You will have a good awareness of the NbS concept and an understanding of private investors’ interests and considerations in delivering NbS at scale. Comfortable synthesising complex information and translating it into impactful advice and communications, you will possess excellent influencing, interpersonal and communications skills. Good at building relationships, including with partners from different sectors and countries, you enjoy a collaborative working environment and are impact-orientated.
