At the moment the Impact Investment Team consists of 5 FTE and is in need of a new team member as the portfolio is increasing rapidly.

Tasks and duties will include:

  • Gain in-depth knowledge on investing across different sectors in emerging markets, such as financial institutions, renewable energy, and affordable housing
  • Identify global debt investment opportunities with different risk/return profiles, where you will focus on the energy side of the portfolio
  • Perform (local) due diligence, write investment memos, present to the Investment Committee
  • Monitor and manage the investment portfolio
  • Provide operational support
  • Assist investees in executing FX hedging strategies
  • Determine the investment strategy together with the team

Qualifications

  • University-level master’s degree in anything (from financial engineering to anthropology)
  • A drive and naivety to want to change the world
  • Entrepreneurial and ambitious (you won’t survive here otherwise)
  • Max 2 years of experience in impact investing (preferably in emerging markets) and/or financial analysis & modeling (renewable energy experience is a plus)
  • Strong numeric, analytical & problem-solving skills
  • Fluency in spoken and written English (French is a plus)
  • Comfortable with working under uncertainty (basically ‘organized chaos’)
  • Willing to travel frequently
  • As energy will be your focus area, you’ll spend a significant amount of time in Oxford, UK with our Energise Africa team
  • Local due diligence visits, mainly in Africa, are part of the job

Benefits

  • Cash salary: in line with social ventures, not the jackpot but certainly sufficient for loads of coffee and avocados!
  • A very interesting stock option package
  • A dynamic environment with a steep learning curve
  • Change the world, nothing less
