Where you are supported in developing your experience and knowledge alongside leading academic, practitioner and public sector partners? If so, this role might just be for you.
     
    As Green Finance Development Manager of the Oxfordshire Local Nature Partnership, you'll develop a framework for nature finance in Oxfordshire alongside partners from Oxford University, innovative local wildlife charities, and pioneering farmer clusters. And working with the best performing climate action team in the country at Oxfordshire County Council, you'll lead on the development of the business case for the county's flagship green investment programme, helping projects secure funding to deliver nature and climate goals.
     
    We need to bring new forms of private finance to bear to address the climate and ecological crises. This role is at the forefront of these efforts locally, and is a chance to set the tone for others wishing to do likewise across the country. Come join us.
     

    Essential criteria for the role

    Are you innovative and solutions-focussed, able to work across multiple sectors and partners to develop the framework for nature and climate related financial transactions? Do you have financial expertise to develop business cases for projects looking for green finance?

    • Delivering a funding strategy encompassing a variety of routes to market for nature and net zero projects, including supporting the shovel-readiness of an existing project pipeline
    • Establish the Oxfordshire Nature Recovery Fund to drive broad participation in nature markets
    •  Create a Nature Finance toolkit (e.g. registries, standardised documentation/template agreements, insurance market support).

    Why join us

    The Oxfordshire Partnerships are an exciting collection of cross district partnerships which include, not only all six major councils, but also government departments, community organisations, universities and local business leaders to address place shaping, climate challenge, nature, and the local economy agendas. All roles in the partnership support team make a vital contribution to the way Oxfordshire will develop in terms of people, place, environment and economy over the coming years. To achieve our visions and ambitions we need to develop our partnerships as we know we can achieve so much more together. We are looking for people who share our aspirations and are committed to working in partnership with others who have different perspectives.
