Start date: As soon as available
Closing date: Please apply promptly as applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis
About the role
This is a senior, high-impact position leading a flagship “Investing for Future Generations” Lab, focused on transforming how capital markets understand and respond to children’s lives and outcomes.
You will shape and deliver a market-leading programme designed to embed children’s outcomes into investment decision-making, moving them from a moral concern to a recognised financial consideration. Acting as a central coordinating “backbone”, you will bring together investors, policymakers and partners to drive system-level change.
Key responsibilities include:
- Leading the strategy, theory of change and delivery roadmap for the Lab
- Building and coordinating a high-impact cross-sector coalition
- Managing programme budgets, governance, risks and reporting
- Producing practical outputs such as investor frameworks, policy papers and insights
- Influencing policy and supporting an enabling environment for impact investment

About you
You are a strategic and collaborative leader with experience operating across complex environments and multiple stakeholders.
You will bring:
- Proven ability to design and deliver ambitious strategies with system-wide impact
- Strong relationship-building and influencing skills, including at senior levels
- Excellent communication skills, with confidence in public speaking and stakeholder engagement
- Experience working with or alongside capital markets, investment or policy environments
- Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities
- A passion for using finance as a force for positive societal change
Experience in impact investing or children-focused policy is beneficial but not essential.
About the organisation
This independent, purpose-driven organisation works to transform capital markets to support a fairer, greener and more resilient future. Through collaborative programmes, research and partnerships, it mobilises private capital to address pressing societal challenges.
The organisation is values-led, ambitious and collaborative, with a strong commitment to inclusion and diversity. Flexible working is supported, and applications are encouraged from candidates of all backgrounds, particularly those underrepresented in finance and policy.
Other roles you may have experience of could include:
Programme Director, Impact Investment Manager, Policy & Partnerships Lead, Strategy Lead, Head of Programmes, Investment Director, Social Impact Lead, Senior Project Director.
