About PIDG

At PIDG, we get infrastructure finance moving and multiplying – accelerating climate action and sustainable development where most urgently needed. For communities, new infrastructure means opportunities to improve life. We work with public and private partners to bridge financing gaps, directing capital and expertise into projects that promote climate resilience and sustainable growth. Working throughout the project lifecycle, we reduce financial risk, transform markets and build local capacity, creating a deep and lasting impact.

We are a group of companies that work together to improve lives throughout Africa and south and south-east Asia. Active since 2002, over 70% of our investments have been either in countries classified as Least Developed Countries or in Fragile and Conflict Affected States. These are the countries where infrastructure gaps are the largest and most urgent and where the population is youngest and growing fastest. These are also the countries that contributed the least to climate change and yet are suffering the worse impacts, in some of the regions with the richest biodiversity left on the planet, which is quickly being depleted.

Building on a pioneering track record of integrating climate and inclusion considerations in infrastructure investment, this year we launched a new 2030 strategy which makes action on climate and nature, together with sustainable development through new and improved infrastructure, the central purpose of all we do.


The role

The primary purpose of the role is to provide input into the regular impact review of prospective PIDG investments and the monitoring of the impact performance of existing PIDG investments. The role will take primary responsibility for deals generated by PIDG project development arm (InfraCo) in Asia, although they will also be involved in other deals and develop specific thematic expertise in line with the priorities of PIDG Impact function.

  • For selected investments, draft the relevant analysis and documentation for the impact clinic for review by the lead impact expert associated to the deal.

  • Contribute to the impact component of project self-evaluations and end-users’ surveys as directed by the Sustainable Impact Director and Impact Manger
  • Occasionally conduct monitoring visits of PIDG investments.
