The Ceres Accelerator for Sustainable Capital Markets is transforming the practices and policies that govern capital markets to reduce the worst financial impacts of the climate crisis. We educate and engage regulators, financial institutions, investors, and other capital market influencers to act on systemic climate-related financial risk.

Description and Responsibilities
The Program Director, Net Zero Finance will lead the Ceres’ Accelerator work on net zero finance including work with financial regulators, banks, insurance companies and other stakeholders. This role will lead a team and work closely with other teams at Ceres to implement net zero finance campaigns, including Investor, Company, and Policy teams.
Ceres’ Net-Zero Finance work seeks to move key North American financial actors — investors, banks, insurers, and regulators — to commit to, pursue, achieve, and promote a just, global transition to net-zero emissions in the 2040s or sooner, or by 2050 at the latest, in line with global efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. The work focuses on where the money is; about half of all assets under management are by North American firms, and half of all market cap of all publicly traded companies in the world is based in the United States. So, moving the U.S. finance sector has massive global implications. The Ceres Accelerator’s mission is to transform the practices and policies that govern capital markets to reduce the worst financial impacts of the climate crisis.
This full-time position is designed for a highly motivated, self-starter with significant experience with financial regulators, investors, banks and/or insurers. The position will report to the Managing Director, Ceres Accelerator for Sustainable Capital Markets. We would prefer the successful candidate to be based in Boston but would be open to other locations.
