We provide innovative open-access data, clear metrics, and actionable insights to leading companies, financial institutions, governments and campaigning organisations worldwide. 

Nature-related Finance: Nature loss poses material risks to financial institutions, as studies show more than half of global GDP is moderately or highly dependent on nature. Lack of high-quality nature-related data is one of the biggest obstacles holding financial institutions back from addressing nature-related risks. Global Canopy innovates to increase the scope, quality and accessibility of freely available data. We work to enable investors, lenders, insurers, financial regulators and others in the sector to identify and mitigate their impacts and dependencies on nature – and to seize the opportunity of investing in nature-positive solutions. Our work on nature-related finance centres on three collaborative flagship projects, the Taskforce on Nature-related Financial Disclosures (TNFD), ENCORE and The Little Book of Investing in Nature.

To be successful in this role,  these are the things that will matter the most: 

• Strong technical and engagement experience in the nature-related finance space.
• Proven track-record managing and delivering programmes at a senior level, including overseeing and developing a complex portfolio of partnership programmes in an international setting.
• Strong experience of leading cross-functional and distributed teams and ability to coach and manage staff and support work planning in this dynamic context.

• Experience of working in complex multi-stakeholder partnerships and consortium arrangements.
