As an organization, we are united through trust as one inclusive, diverse team, and we are passionate about helping our colleagues and clients succeed.


What the day will look like

  • Establishing the value to be delivered and drive execution of ESG and climate strategy across Asia Pacific;
  • Providing guidance in the delivery of Aon United 3 x3 plan through leveraging ESG and climate solutions operating as one firm and integrating solutions (leveraging across Human and Risk capital) to deliver on client demands;
  • Developing and enabling client retention and new business by building trusted relationships with clients and prospects, external networking, referrals, pre-emptive marketing, RFP’s and direct outreach;
  • Providing high value, independent subject matter expertise to respond to client’s need for guidance in climate disclosures and ESG acting as a trusted advisor to clients;

  • Exceptional work ethic with a high level of professionalism and adherence to ethical standards;
  • Strong written and oral communication skills and attention to detail;
  • Strong cultural acumen aligning with the APAC region and the ability to communicate in local languages is an advantage;
  • Comfortable with intermittent periods of travel; evening and weekend hours;
  • Proven record of business development in climate and ESG solutions.
