**Sustainable Finance Policy Advisor**:
**Job description**

**This is a UK based contract and as such, you are required to have the Right to Work in the UK. Evidence of your Right to Work will be checked prior to interview.**
This is an exciting opportunity to use your knowledge of policy development and regulation of the financial sector to tackle climate change and loss of nature, as a member of the Sustainable Finance Unit of the Policy Solutions team in WWF, the world’s leading independent conservation organisation.
As **Sustainable Finance Policy Advisor**, you will help **design creative policy solutions** to some of the world’s most difficult and pressing challenges. Your work will influence government, central banks, regulatory authorities and the finance sector itself to respond to climate change and nature loss, and deliver the transition to a net zero economy. You will **support policy development** to transform the financial sector in the UK and beyond, focusing on government policy and regulation.
This will involve analysing existing and proposed policies for effectiveness and collaborating with colleagues to **make the case for action and implementation** to key stakeholders on proposed policy changes. You will also maintain oversight of the sustainable finance policy landscape internally and externally and be alert to new developments and policy ideas. You will produce technical reports, documents and briefings as well as commission research and consultants as needed. It will be important to build links and strategic relationships with other organisations and other parts of the global network of WWF offices to maximise our effectiveness.
You must have **experience of policy development and / or financial sector regulation** and an understanding of the **sustainable finance landscape**. Your expertise will likely have been gained in a government department, central bank, regulator, or a thinktank or NGO working on this agenda. You will also have a **record of developing and influencing key stakeholders**, influencing opinions and practices and creating new models to deliver policy change. Politically aware, you will possess a **strong understanding of how policy is influenced**, both inside and outside Government as well as how policy and politics interact and how one can be used to influence the other. Expert at identifying key or underlying issues in complex situations, you will be **experienced in conducting or using research to develop ideas and make the case for them.** You will possess excellent **influencing, relationship building and communication skills** too.
Our policies and benefits reflect the importance of people being able to have a good work-life balance and being able to bring their ‘full self’ to work.
Our world needs you like never before. We are the first generation to know we are destroying the world and we could be the last that can do anything about it. We are looking for people who are passionate about making it politically, socially and economically unacceptable to destroy our planet’s natural resources. We need you to join us in the fight for our world.
