As a key member of the Sustainability, Reputation and Engagement unit, you will drive the integration of ESG and climate principles across the group’s financial operations. You will spend your days assessing project eligibility against green taxonomies, developing sustainable finance frameworks, and calculating financed emissions. This is a hands-on technical role that bridges the gap between high-level climate strategy and the daily realities of a diverse banking portfolio.
Working for a leading financial institution in the region, your impact directly influences how capital is allocated toward a low-carbon economy. By implementing the UNEPFI Principles for Responsible Banking, you will help navigate the specific transition challenges facing African markets, turning theoretical sustainability goals into measurable environmental and social outcomes. This role is essential for ensuring the bank remains resilient and responsible in an evolving regulatory landscape.
This suits someone who possesses a deep understanding of climate finance and enjoys translating complex international ESG standards into actionable local banking practices. You should be a collaborative professional who thrives on persuading internal stakeholders and navigating the technicalities of financed emissions reporting.
