About the Team

As an Investment Officer in the FI Investments, Climate Finance team, you would join the team leading the development and management of the GCPF FI portfolio. The role entails close interaction with existing and prospective partner FIs, external Investment and TA Committees, as well as several internal responsAbility team members, including Financial Inclusion Debt Officers, Climate Advisory Specialists, and Technical Assistance Officers. Therefore, in addition to an enthusiastic and client-friendly nature, the position requires someone capable of coordinating priorities and deliverables across several departments.

About the Job

This role is designed for a professional who can easily connect with internal and external stakeholders and who operates comfortably in a dynamic, international environment. Your Main Tasks:

  • Lead the due diligence process from end-to-end, including origination, assessment (including on-site due diligence), execution and periodic monitoring of investments in financial institutions across Asia Pacific. This will require managing the coordination across various internal stakeholders.
  • In parallel to the credit due diligence, assess the market potential for renewable energy (RE), energy efficiency (EE) and adaptation lending, including evaluation of commercial & regulatory drivers supporting an FI's green lending potential.
  • Persuade FIs to develop green lending strategies in line with the market potential identified, working closely with rA's in-house Climate Advisory Specialists and Technical Assistance Team.
  • Lead the drafting of Investment Proposals (IPs) for the GCPF Investment Committee and Board of Directors that outline the FI's identified financial and green strengths and weaknesses, with an emphasis on the additionality of GCPF's investment.
  • Liaise with the various internal responsAbility teams collaborating on a GCPF FI transaction, supporting their needs throughout the investment process from due diligence to disbursement and monitoring.
  • Monitor trends in the financial and clean energy sectors and develop relevant, concise and thoughtful summaries for internal and external stakeholders.
  • Perform regular financial monitoring of outstanding transactions, investees, and risk-relevant market and sector developments.
