  • Participating in relevant brainstorming sessions to generate market / industry insights
  • Coordinating with internal stakeholders on meeting / activity arrangements
  • Participating and assisting in team projects and other ad hoc duties assigned
  • Supporting in operational and administration tasks

  • Is strongly passionate about ESG issues and committed to making a difference in the corporate landscape.
  • Possesses an outstanding academic record, preferably in Accounting, Business, Finance, Environmental Science, or Social Science.
  • Has excellent knowledge of MS office, especially MS PowerPoint and Excel, and is adept at developing presentation materials to a high quality with a short turnaround.
  • Has excellent interpersonal and communication (written and spoken) skills, enjoys working with people and is able to build relationships with and manage a range of different stakeholders, both external and internal.
  • Is of a curious temperament, independent in learning, and a selfstarter with good analytical and problemsolving skills.
  • Has effective project management skills and is able to multitask to deliver on varying priorities within a highly pressured and often shifting environment
