Context

Are you looking for a job where you can use your language skills to shape sustainable financing in Indonesia?

CDP requires a part-time English-speaking project officer with knowledge of Indonesia’s finance and forestry sectors to join its global, multi-award-winning investor team.

The successful candidate will work in the forests team to engage and build capacity with Indonesian financial institutions to measure and manage the environmental impacts of their financing activities. The work will be focused on issues concerning forests and how forests and land-use due diligence can be integrated into everyday business practices, alongside climate change and water security.

The project officer will work closely with the investor account manager to maintain and build new relationships with key financial institutions in Indonesia. Awareness raising and capacity building will support a shift to financing that supports sustainable consumption and production.

Candidates should have a passion for the environment and feel comfortable communicating with senior stakeholders including investors, insurers, banks and integrated financial institutions to help meet the project targets.

The project officer will work remotely from Indonesia with colleagues in Hong Kong and in the UK. It is expected that some local travel will be needed in future as pandemic conditions ease. Candidates should have an excellent level of spoken English and a good level of English literacy, as well as native/near native Bahasa Indonesian. It is an advantage to have experience working in the financial sector, an environmental NGO or consultancy.

The program provides critical forests related data from the world’s largest corporations that buy, sell or trade key forests risk commodities (cattle products, palm oil, soy products and timber).
