Our purpose is to catalyse good disruptions in critical economic systems, with a current focus that includes low-carbon energy, materials and the circular economy, and regenerative oceans and land use. These disruptions are not only vital to the future of humanity and our planet, they also open up immense opportunities for the businesses that drive them.
SYSTEMIQ connects the right people, ideas, technologies and capital to transform economic systems:
greener, more inclusive financial system.
In order to deliver in these areas, we recruit and develop distinctive and varied individuals who strive to achieve our mission, challenge the status quo and act as change leaders.
Blended Finance Taskforce
Systemiq’s Blended Finance Taskforce was set up to tackle barriers which currently prevent investment from flowing in emerging markets and developing economies. Leveraging a broad network of public, private and philanthropic actors combined with deep transactional expertise, we (i) link national transition planning with largescale climate finance solutions; (ii) develop and scale fit-for-purpose blended finance mechanisms; and (iii) deliver high-impact advocacy and analysis to unlock capital for people and planet.
The Senior Communications Manager for SYSTEMIQ’s Sustainable Finance Platform (which includes the work of the Blended Finance Taskforce) will lead the planning and implementation of the platforms’ communications with the aim of enhancing the visibility and impact of key projects. Working hand in hand with teams based in our global offices, as well as with SYSTEMIQ’s key external partners, the Senior Communications Manager will ensure our communications is of the highest quality across all projects and assets.
The role requires a keen understanding of the sustainability and financial sectors, strong communications instincts, and the ability to work professionally and diplomatically with internal and external stakeholders, including senior executives. The role will focus on engaging with the public sector, private finance, and the philanthropic and NGO community on climate and nature finance.
The right candidate will have a proven track record of managing communications and stakeholder campaigns, media engagement, producing digital and media assets and crafting powerful stories. We are looking for someone who is at ease working in English, can demonstrate strong coordination skills and ability to work both autonomously and across multiple teams.
You will be part of a growing global communications and engagement team and will work closely with Systemiq’s leadership and the wider team to build out the organisation’s communications capabilities.
