  • Advise investment teams on impact measurement, Theory of Change, baseline design, project KPI selection, and monitoring/evaluation plans in line with Invest International Strategy and reporting requirements.
  • Support portfolio reporting, dashboards, integrated reporting, and internal learning agendas.
  • Contribute to IESG policy development, position statements, tools, and guidance for the GCS unit as well as support the efforts of IESG Center of Excellence.
