The Sustainable Finance Institute Asia (SFIA) is an independent institute established to catalyse ideas on sustainable finance at the policy level, as well as propel action in support of those policy ideas in Asia, particularly in ASEAN. We are looking for a highly motivated and detail-oriented Programme Associate who is eager to grow and learn in the field of sustainable finance.

You will gain exposure to regional developments in sustainable finance and contribute to multiple projects that support the delivery of the sustainability agenda. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who is proactive, adaptable, and willing to take initiative.
