  • Support ICF's business development efforts in the field of business, finance, and biodiversity
  • Support ICF's thought leadership in business, finance, and biodiversity, identifying emerging trends and opportunities and help to translate these into new service offers that will benefit clients

**Requirements**

  • Ability to work independently as well as within multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary consulting teams spread across several countries and time zones
  • Professional experience of at least 6 years

**Preferred Qualifications**

We also welcome candidates with:
