Chatham House, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, is an independent policy institute based in London. Our mission is to help build a sustainably secure, prosperous and just world.
The Environment and Society Centre (ESC) provides governments, businesses and societies with the information, networks and tools to tackle environmental challenges and advance the world towards a sustainable future through independent, thought-leading research.
The Environment and Society Centre houses the Sustainability Accelerator, a major initiative that champions our approach and puts sustainability at the core of Chatham House’s work. Launched in 2021, the Accelerator investigates and shares innovative ideas that enable radical shifts that allow us to prosper without exhausting our planet’s resources.
As a policy accelerator, it strives to combine the best evidence-based policymaking with the experimental approach of the entrepreneurship community, acting as a springboard for ideas and solutions to some of our biggest environmental challenges.
Your role will be critical in setting the Sustainability Accelerator's strategic direction. You will oversee and deliver the team’s multidisciplinary research approach across the intersection of sustainability with innovation and finance. You will help shape a strategy to convene sustainability change makers to build ideas, collaborate and experiment.
This role will lead in crafting engagement approaches (both in convening and research) to address sustainability challenges through innovative solutions that can be successfully implemented.
You are inspirational and full of big ideas, can develop strategies that bring together different environmental issues, and be rigorous in helping us transform ideas into action. If this sounds like you so far, please read on!
