**Job summary**:
The Social Impact Investment Team within the Civil Society and Youth directorate is looking for a Policy Adviser to join an exciting and innovative team working at the forefront of impact investment policy.
Social impact investing considers impact on people and the planet alongside financial returns. It is a vital source of investment for social enterprises and other businesses which are addressing social and environmental challenges.
