London, United Kingdom State Street Corporation Full time
State Street Global Advisors - Sustainability Stewardship Analyst, Assistant Vice President

We have seen a maturing of certain of our clients' 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 managers' 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 support a team 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 Head of Sustainability Stewardship.

Responsibilities
In this role you will:
  • Support the development and implementation of a client proxy voting policy that will be aligned with the new Sustainability Stewardship Service
  • Support company engagements that reflect participating client views on sustainability priority topics and represent the opt-in assets
  • Support the integration of broader sustainability research and insights into policy development and industry efforts
  • Provide reporting and related content to participating clients to ensure transparency on the activities of the service
  • Build strong relationships with key stakeholders to understand the emerging sustainability landscape to ensure that service is aligned with client expectation and industry best practices.
  • Support the Head of Sustainability Stewardship to ensure the success of the service

Job Requirements
  • 5+ years of experience in asset stewardship, including company engagement
  • Strong understanding of sustainability related topics including climate risks
  • Proven ability to effectively navigate an increasingly complex environment
  • Exceptionally strong written and verbal communications skills with an engaging personality
  • Ability to present information in an organized and clear fashion
  • Strong interpersonal skills with comfort working independently and within a team setting
  • Ability to work in a dynamic environment, demonstrating initiative and the ability to prioritize workloads
  • Highly effective relationship-building and collaborative working style with an ability to balance various stakeholders
  • Candidates must be detail oriented
