Who are you?
The ideal candidate will have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in a sustainability-related field, with a track record in transaction advisory or infrastructure project finance. Strong expertise in due diligence, ideally in infrastructure projects, is essential, along with a good understanding of environmental, social governance, and health and safety standards such as the IFC Performance Standards.
In addition to broad ESG/sustainability skills, experience in services such as environmental (and social) impact assessment, climate risk assessments and carbon management would be beneficial.
Leadership ambition is important, as the candidate will be expected to mentor junior team members and oversee report production.
Strong communication skills are necessary to deliver clear, high-quality reports and effectively manage client relationships. The role also requires applying technical knowledge, critical thinking, and analytical skills, while advising non-technical clients on complex matters in an accessible manner.
Given the international scope of this work, proficiency in additional languages is advantageous. Being able to communicate effectively across different regions and cultures will enhance collaboration with global clients and stakeholders, supporting the delivery of tailored, localised solutions. Excellent written and spoken English is required with the majority of our work delivered through English.
Job location
The candidate will be based in the Infrata/dss+ office in the City of London and may be required to perform short business trips overseas to meet with clients and visit project sites. Diverse project geographies dictate that sometimes working hours may need to be flexible to accommodate client time zones, e.g. when making international conference calls from London.
