Contribute to research ideas across ESG, climate, and broader sustainability themes

Required Qualifications

Strong analytical mindset with hands-on experience or interest in portfolio construction and optimization techniques
Postgraduate degree (or equivalent) in a quantitative discipline
Proficiency in Python and SQL, with experience handling and analysing financial datasets
Strong communication skills with the ability to explain quantitative concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
