Description

What's the role?
We are seeking a new team member for the BloombergNEF (BNEF) Summit team on a 12 month contract.

Based in our London office, you will work closely with the existing Director and their team to define the agenda of and deliver high profile Summits around theworld in both virtual and hybrid environments.

These gatherings address issues of strategic importance for the BNEF community, including those our research indicates should be on their agenda even if they are not yet aware themselves.

This is an opportunity to join a small but growing team, and to develop a role for yourself with one of the leading research companies and convening groups in the space.

Who are you?

You're one of those people who have a real passion for the energy transition as well as the people and issues driving it forward.

You take pleasure in bringing people together and want to be at the heart of discussions that will determine the success or otherwiseof the transition.

Through varied reading and observation, you naturally form judgements and understand how different issues affect different stakeholder groups. You have a strong ability to communicate these one-on-one and to wider groups. Your people skillsare second-to-none, and your enthusiasm can be infectious.

Teamwork is important to you, and you are excited by the prospect of working with colleagues and clients from different backgrounds to bring together communities on the cutting edge of the transition.

Our team:

BNEF Team Ethos:

To succeed at BNEF we need people who can work in an independent manner and show initiative to develop their own viewpoints, yet be collaborative with colleagues.

Working at BNEF sometimes feels chaotic; we need teams that are both dynamic and structured to generate the unique perspectives our clients really value.

Engage with senior executives and their teams to identify their most pressing concerns and potential contributions to the Summits

Take ownership of specific areas of this agenda to bring to fruition whilst identifying aspects which can be more effectively lead by colleagues
Keep high quality record of key aspects of your work to scale your efforts and support cooperation with colleagues
Demonstrate leadership internally and externally across specific aspects of the BNEF Summit operation

You'll need to be able to:

Find common purpose with and engage, persuade and lead individuals and groups
Form original judgements based on multiple and sometimes conflicting sources
Work hard on parallel tasks to organise yourself and others to develop and execute complex plans, simplifying wherever possible.
Work in a global team with a high degree of professionalism, and with colleagues and clients from different cultures

You'll need to have:

3 to 5 years experience in an analytical, strategic, event or commercial development role
Experience in stakeholder engagement and convening
Strong knowledge of or demonstrated interest in the energy, transport, finance industry or business responses to climate and sustainability
