Senior Research Officer (x2) – Financial Sector Research

ShareAction and the global system of finance

It is said that “money makes the world go around” but the global financial system in its current form is in danger of making our world a very inhospitable place indeed for future generations.

Though it has lifted many out of poverty, today the global financial system has an oversized impact on many of the existential challenges we face. Biodiversity loss is such an example, as is climate change and the growing gap between rich and poor in terms of both income and health. Investment, lending and insuring decisions can enable destructive and exploitative industries or they can support a transition to a more sustainable way of living and use of precious resources. The latter approach is known as responsible or ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) investment.

ShareAction’s vision is of a world where the financial system serves our planet and its people. Our mission is to define the highest standards of responsible investment and to drive change until these standards are adopted worldwide. We work towards our mission by:

• advocating for change in the investment industry using our research and rankings
• campaigning with allies to strengthen investor stewardship and change corporate behaviour
• pushing for public policy reform to transform the financial system

Position

We are looking for two Senior Research Officers to join our growing Financial Sector Research (FSR) team. Our team works towards holding financial institutions accountable for their impacts on people and planet by (1) researching the sector’s current performance and publishing annual rankings and analysis (2) publishing sector guidance briefings detailing leading industry practice (3) engaging with each surveyed institution and providing them with detailed recommendations for improvement.

The new Senior Research Officers will contribute to this research, collecting information from institutions and databases, analysing quantitative and qualitative data, and translating this analysis into actionable steps for institutions to take.

Key responsibilities:

• Support the team to deliver its rankings by conducting quantitative and qualitative research, supporting with the development of the ranking framework, data collection and auditing, analysis and report writing
• Contact and maintain relationships with financial institutions to invite them to participate in our research and respond to any queries about the research process
• Assist with post-survey engagement by aiding the development of personalised feedback sheets for institutions, generalised recommendations and leading practice examples, and follow-up meetings with institutions where necessary
• Conduct exploratory research covering topic areas or sets of financial institutions which may be new to the team
• Support the FSS team by contributing information for fundraising bids and reports
• Contribute to responses representing ShareAction’s views on responsible investment-related topics to a range of consultations by policymakers, regulators, industry initiatives and other civil society organisations
• Take the initiative in identifying personal development opportunities
• Organise, participate and take notes in follow-up meetings with financial institutions

One of the two roles we are recruiting will have a greater focus on the surveys themselves, while the other will have a greater focus on the development of leading practice reports once the main survey analysis has concluded. However, we expect there to be a good degree of overlap between both roles.

Please note that this list isn’t exhaustive, and responsibilities may be adjusted from time to time depending on the needs of the team/project.

Requirements

We are looking for passionate, determined individuals, with the following experience and skills:

ESSENTIAL

• Any kind of experience working with the finance industry, in corporate campaigning, or in research
• An understanding of responsible investment and its implications for different types of financial institutions
• Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and proven ability to conduct qualitative and quantitative research
• Strong communication skills in written and spoken English
• Excellent organisational skills, proven ability to manage competing demands while still meeting deadlines
• Familiarity with Microsoft Office applications, particularly Word, Excel and PowerPoint
• Strong teamwork skills and ability to work collaboratively
• A passion ShareAction’s vision and mission

DESIRABLE

• Subject matter knowledge in climate change, biodiversity or human/labour rights
• Advanced Excel skills
• Any programming experience
• Experience of managing relationships with external stakeholders

ShareAction and the global system of finance

The global investment system has an oversized impact on many of the existential challenges we face today. Investors, as holders of capital and owners of the companies they invest in have an influence on corporate practice. They influence which companies find it easier or harder to access finance and can use engagement tactics to influence the companies they’re invested in. Through their investment decisions and company engagement, investors can support a transition to a more sustainable, healthier way of living - this is known as responsible or ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) investment.

ShareAction’s vision is of a world where the investment system better serves our planet and its people. Our mission is to define the highest standards of responsible investment and to drive change until these standards are adopted worldwide. We work towards our mission by:

You would also contribute to thought leadership on responsible investment for asset managers and help coordinate ShareAction’s complementary workstreams (policy and corporate campaigns) that strategically focus on asset managers.

Key responsibilities:

• Develop and implement a strategy for intensifying ongoing engagement across the world’s largest 75 asset managers featured in ShareAction’s global rankings.
• Lead meetings with senior decision-makers at asset managers focused on raising responsible investment standards.

• Help coordinate and ensure alignment across all ShareAction workstreams that strategically focus on asset managers.

• Support the Financial Sector Research Team (responsible for delivering global rankings of asset managers) on development of methodology, tracking leading practice, and bespoke feedback resources.
• Support Investor Standards team with periodic outreach to asset managers on ShareAction’s latest investor-relevant research and events.

• Over time, line manage new investor engagement roles that challenge investor standards.
