Our client, a leading UK-based financial services firm, is looking for a Senior Manager – Technical Climate Strategy to join its growing sustainability function. This is an exciting opportunity to shape and drive the technical strategy behind a major organisation’s journey to net zero, with influence across investment, underwriting, and operational portfolios.

 

 

About the Role

As Senior Manager, you will take the lead on technical and analytical projects underpinning the firm’s climate strategy, particularly the transition of investment and underwriting portfolios towards net zero. You’ll be instrumental in developing frameworks for sector and asset class decarbonisation, overseeing climate-related metrics and targets, and supporting investment opportunity evaluation through a climate lens.

 

This role also includes contributing to business planning and data-led initiatives, acting as a key technical voice within the organisation on climate-related risks, opportunities, and regulatory developments.

 

 

Key Responsibilities

• Lead climate-focused technical projects, including investment portfolio decarbonisation and climate scenario analysis

• Develop and implement tools, metrics, and frameworks to monitor progress against climate targets

• Act as a subject matter expert across investment, underwriting, and operational climate strategies

• Engage with cross-functional teams to integrate climate considerations into investment decisions and business planning

• Stay ahead of evolving policy, regulatory, and market developments relevant to climate and sustainability in financial services

 

 

What They're Looking For

• Strong technical expertise in climate risk and opportunity assessment, ideally within financial services

• Deep knowledge of investment portfolios, asset classes, and decarbonisation pathways

• Proven experience applying climate methodologies and sector carbon pathways

• Familiarity with key frameworks and initiatives (e.g., NZAOA, GFANZ, UNEP FI, NGFS)

• Skilled in managing multiple complex workstreams and influencing stakeholders across a large organisation

 

This role offers a unique opportunity to shape the climate strategy of a major player in the UK financial sector, with the autonomy to make a real impact.
