  • Ensure on-time, high-quality deliverables aligned with both client and IIX standards.
  • Orange Bond & Supply Chain Solutions
  • Support corporates in Orange Bond readiness through diagnostics, frameworks, and KPI development.
  • Assist in integrating Orange Seal supplier certification into corporate supply chains.
  • Work with internal teams on pre- and post-issuance monitoring to produce investor-ready outputs.
  • Thought Leadership & Ecosystem Engagement
  • Represent IIX at client workshops, industry events, and sustainability forums.
  • Contribute to thought leadership on ESG, gender-lens investing, and sustainable finance.
  • Engage with DFIs, regulators, and industry associations to support IIX’s positioning and advocacy.
  • Team Support & Mentorship
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to Associates and Analysts.
  • Foster a collaborative, high-performing, impact-driven culture within the Advisory team.
  • Support the Head of Advisory in building team capacity and refining delivery methodologies.
  • Required Qualifications

  • Deep experience working with corporates and / or financial institutions in South and Southeast Asia.
