Are you a seasoned B2B marketing leader who thrives at the intersection of strategic vision and meticulous execution? Can you translate complex consultancy business models into revenue-driving campaigns while inspiring a lean, capable team?

Working closely with the Senior Management Team and reporting directly to the Managing director, you will take full ownership of our Marketing & Communications strategy for this 6-9 month period, ensuring every initiative is deeply aligned with our commercial goals and revenue generation.

B2B Marketing

For over 24 years, our consultants have been supporting and guiding our clients to achieve low-carbon climate-resilient development. We do this through catalysing systemic transformation, helping establish strong foundations for impact. By speaking the language of many (through our technical, financial, cultural and local understanding), we work with agility to align with our clients, and at the interplay of finance and the wider context.

We assess contexts and baselines, design strategies and frameworks, develop policies, programmes and projects and unlock finance for public and private sector clients, seeking to deliver low-carbon climate-resilient and sustainable growth. We lower risk, increase predictability and design for impact. 

Through a holistic understanding and deep experience working with climate funds, our 99% success rate in unlocking climate finance has led to the successful mobilisation of over USD 7 billion of climate finance from global climate funds, including the GCF, GEF and Adaptation Fund.

Our work has enabled us to collaborate with local governments around the world, where we’ve supported NDC alignment and implementation, policy development, capacity building, and other national to subnational priorities. Through this work, we’ve supported several government entities including: Ministry of Environment Armenia, Ministry of Finance Serbia, Ministry of Local Government Bangladesh, Ministry of Finance and Public Credit of Finance (SHCP) Mexico, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (SADER) Mexico, Ministry of Agriculture Croatia.

To support our country-driven, locally-led approach, we design and deliver bespoke training and capacity-building courses worldwide, for public and private sector institutions, with an aim to further global skills and understanding of international finance mechanisms and how to access them – specifically the Green Climate Fund (GCF).

For over 26 years, our team have supported and guided global public and private sector clients towards low-carbon, climate-resilient development. From assessing baselines and designing projects to unlocking climate finance, we develop the frameworks that drive global impact.

We are seeking a highly commercial, dynamic, and strategic Marketing & Communications leader to step in as our Interim Head of Marketing & Communications for a 6-9 month maternity cover. Building on the work already underway, this is a rare opportunity to strengthen our commercial positioning, enhance the overall client experience, and elevate our Marketing & Communications efforts.
