About The Role

We are seeking a high-energy, self-motivated, and organised Associate or VP who is passionate about sustainability and the low-carbon transition to join STS in a multi-faceted and dynamic role.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work across and then specialize in several different focus areas via both long-term project work and day-to-day recurring responsibilities across strategy and business management.

Platform strategy (70% of time): The Associate or VP will own internal and external product and market intelligence as part of this role. Internal intelligence includes understanding and updating a master tracker of sustainability characteristics across 500 products, assisting with the quarterly financials process, and tracking product launches and closures. External intelligence includes gathering and analysing industry flows, competitors and key client segment and policy development. Projects will span a range of sustainability topics — like climate mitigation, biodiversity, and the energy transition — offering the opportunity to learn new content and spot emerging trends.
Business management (30% of time): Support Global STS Leadership with setting priorities and business performance metrics, quarterly business reviews, and ad-hoc senior management updates throughout the year (e.g., preparation for ExCo or Fund Board presentations). Lead on commercial data management initiatives such as integrating client intelligence metrics directly into Microsoft Dynamics (e.g., sustainable pipeline at risk, client commitments to net zero, etc.)

The candidate should be comfortable engaging in detail-oriented, hands-on work with large data sets, perform quantitative analysis, and – if inclined – apply coding skills to uncover insights.

This role is also a great opportunity to build a strong internal network by collaborating with partner teams on high-impact projects, develop a broad skill set, and explore personal interests within the sustainability space.

The Ideal Candidate Has

3-5+ years of relevant strategy and/or climate/sustainability experience, preferably in investment management, management consulting, corporate strategy and development, or a think tank
Experience being accountable for workstreams within a broader project and working directly with directors and managing directors
Strong analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills with the ability to develop hypotheses, insights and storyline and translate those into clear slides
Strong Excel and data management skills and techniques with comfort managing and analyzing large, complex data sets and drawing conclusions from the data
Effective communicator with the ability to translate complex investment and sustainability topics into easy-to-understand memos and presentations for senior leadership and external stakeholders
Superior organisational skills with the ability to perform under pressure and tight deadlines in a fast-paced environment
Knowledge of sustainability, energy, investment management and/or financial markets with the ability to learn new content quickly
Familiarity with Microsoft Dynamics
Dedicated team player with a strong sense of ownership
An ambitious spirit that is ready to take on a full range of tasks and pursue additional responsibility quickly
