Global Climate Finance Established in January 2017, RMI’s Global Climate Finance program aims to create an efficient system for mobilizing and delivering climate finance to the geographies that need it most, while advancing the next generation of innovative climate finance instruments. In addition to providing climate finance expertise across RMI programs, the Global Climate Finance team leads several initiatives:   Green Investment Banks (GIBs) :  this initiative supports the development of green investment banks in emerging economies. These national institutions offer a replicable model for climate-smart development that utilizes public finance to mobilize private investment. RMI is working to ensure that emerging countries have access to the information, technical assistance, and capital required to develop GIBs.   Climate Finance Access Service (CFAS) : this initiative aims to create a network of climate finance professionals working in low-income countries to access and structure finance for mitigation and adaptation investments. Recruited and trained in cohorts, CFAS fellows would work directly in host-country governments for a two-year term. RMI is currently scoping the concept for this program, which if successful, could ultimately be spun out into an independent entity.       Results Based Climate Finance : this initiative seeks to promote auctioned carbon price floors, an innovative climate finance instrument that uses auctions to allocate finance for technologies that are most efficient at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. RMI has published an article in Climate Policy this topic, and is working to support uptake of this instrument by various public finance institutions.   Net Climate Finance : this initiative encourages the scale-up of climate finance flows by not only increasing “green,” or low-carbon investments, but also reducing capital flows to “brown” or carbon-intensive projects. RMI has published a discussion paper on this concept, and is pursuing several strategies for tracking finance for both green and brown investments.   Coal Capital Transition : this initiative aims to accelerate the early retirement of coal plants by minimizing capital destruction (i.e., financial losses resulting from plants shutting down prior to their technical expiration). RMI is currently conducting a survey of existing initiatives and strategies to facilitate early retirement, ranging from compensation schemes to innovative financial engineering solutions.   The Role   RMI is seeking two Associates or Senior Associates to support the Global Climate Finance initiatives described above. As part of a quickly growing team, these positions will support a wide range of activities, including research and analysis; stakeholder engagement and management; and planning and facilitation of workshops and events.

This is an excellent opportunity for early career professionals with a demonstrated interest in climate finance and a desire to undertake a variety of responsibilities within an expanding program.      The Global Climate Finance team will consider candidates for both the Associate and Senior Associate levels. Associates will work closely with various team members under the direction of more senior staff, whereas Senior Associates will be responsible for more substantial portions of projects and may manage smaller projects. The appropriate level will be determined based on experience and qualifications.
