This is a great opportunity to work within the world’s fastest growing responsible investment initiative.

This role involves providing day to day executive support to the Executive Director and PRI Board. While this role includes diary management and some travel booking, it is not only an administrative support role. It involves serving as the Secretary to the Board with responsibility for managing Board documentation, follow ups and minutes. It also involves preparing briefings and research for meetings (a task that would benefit from some knowledge of responsible investment and our signatories), and updating the Executive Director on key developments within the RI arena and within our signatory community.
We are looking for someone who can demonstrate attention to detail, strong organisational skills, high level editing and proofreading ability, accurate note-taking, research capacity and people skills. The candidate must be very comfortable with technology.
