About the Role

Working for a not-for-profit membership organisation for religious asset holders and faith-based investors worldwide that supports faiths to align their investments with their values and beliefs, the Chief Executive has overall responsibility for leading FaithInvest from its current start-up phase to maturity.

 

You will be motivated by multi-faith collaboration and the use of investment capital and business to effect positive change in the world. This is a full-time role, working remotely with extensive travel to the UK and internationally (subject to Covid conditions).

 

About You

Charismatic, energetic and values-driven, you will have a strong track record of delivering transformation and cultural change, ideally in the areas of faith, environmental and social sustainability and/or ethical finance/investing.

 

You will:

• Be as confident conversing with faith leaders ­– whether Christian or Muslim, Hindu or Buddhist, Jewish or Daoist – as you are communicating with investment professionals around financial investments and related areas, for example, ESG, impact investing.
• Have a strong track record of success at a senior level within an organisation (ideally a non-profit).
• Be an experienced people-and-project manager who can lead a strong, cohesive team in driving the organisation forward and serving our members, whilst working remotely.
• Have exceptional networking and relationship-building skills.
• Have a proven track record in successful income generation and fundraising. 

 

This is an exciting opportunity for an exceptional individual who shares FaithInvest’s passion for growing the movement of faith-consistent investing globally and changing the way financial markets are motivated.

 

Remote working with travel in/to UK and internationally (subject to COVID restrictions), including residential team meetings held every 6-8 weeks in the UK. While the role is open to candidates globally, factors such as the candidate's ability to do the job effectively, time zones, the cost of travel (including the impact on the environmental footprint) will be taken into account in the appointment.

 

About the Organisation

Established in 2019 as a not-for-profit membership organisation for religious asset holders and faith-based investors worldwide, FaithInvest aims to empower faiths to use their investments to create a better world – for people and planet – by providing a global network, knowledge hub and consolidated voice for faith groups and faith-based organisations engaged in investments.
