Additional information The School of Geography and the Environment holds an Athena Swan Silver award in recognition of our commitment and success in addressing gender equality. The School of Geography and the Environment is committed to promoting a culture of equality, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, including the undertaking of appropriate training as opportunities arise and/or when asked to do so. Oxford Sustainable Finance Group (OxSFG), Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment (SSEE) Aligning finance with sustainability is a necessary condition for tackling the environmental and social challenges facing humanity. It is also necessary for financial institutions and the broader financial system to manage the risks and capture the opportunities associated with the transition to global environmental sustainability. The University of Oxford has world-leading researchers and research capabilities relevant to understanding these challenges and opportunities. Established in 2012 the Oxford Sustainable Finance Group (OxSFG) is the focal point for these activities. OxSFG is multidisciplinary and works globally across asset classes, finance professions, and with different parts of the financial system. We are the largest such centre globally and are working to be the world's best place for research and teaching on sustainable finance and investment. OxSFG is based in one of the world's great universities and the oldest university in the English-speaking world. We work with leading practitioners from across the investment chain (including actuaries, asset owners, asset managers, accountants, banks, data providers, investment consultants, lawyers, ratings agencies, stock exchanges), with firms and their management, and with experts from a wide range of related subject areas (including finance, economics, management, geography, data science, anthropology, climate science, law, area studies, psychology) within the University of Oxford and beyond. Since our foundation we have made significant and sustained contributions to the field, including in some of the following areas: • • • • • Developing the concept of "stranded assets", now a core element of the theory and practice of sustainable finance. Contributions to the theory and practice of measuring climate and environmental risks and impacts via new forms of geospatial data and analysis, including introducing the idea and importance of "spatial finance" and "asset-level data". Shaping the theory and practice of supervision as it relates to sustainability by working with the Bank of England, the central banks’, and supervisors' Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS), and the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), among others. Working closely with policymakers to design and implement policies to support sustainable finance, including through the UK Green Finance Taskforce, UK Green Finance Strategy, COP26, and the high-level Transition Plan Taskforce. Nurturing the expansion of a rigorous academic community internationally by conceiving, founding, and co-chairing the Global Research Alliance for Sustainable Finance and Investment (GRASFI), an alliance of global research universities promoting rigorous and impactful academic research on sustainable finance. The OxSFG is situated within SSEE – part of the School of Geography and the Environment (SoGE). We intend to significantly increase the reach and impact over the next five years. 2 In February 2021 it was announced that an OxSFG-led consortium had won a call for a new UK Centre for Greening Finance & Investment (CGFI), established by UK Research and Innovation as the national centre to accelerate the adoption and use of climate and environmental data and analytics by financial institutions internationally. CGFI is supporting the integration of climate- and environment-related financial factors into mainstream financial decision-making and helping to enable the reallocation of capital towards net zero-carbon, resilient, and nature positive solutions. The CGFI was one of the key recommendations made by the UK Green Finance Taskforce in 2018 and contained in the UK Green Finance Strategy in 2019. CGFI will create opportunities for the postholder to collaborate with researchers within Oxford and beyond. In 2021 the OxSFG also initiated a new Public and Third Sector Academy for Sustainable Finance (The “P3S Academy”); a new global centre of learning and capacity building focused on how the public and third sectors, whether central or local government, regulators, supervisory authorities, multilateral institutions, campaigning NGOs, charities, and philanthropy, can grasp the opportunities associated with sustainable finance. In 2022 we also began leading the finance work as part of the Leverhulme Centre for Nature Recovery (LCNR), a new centre at Oxford investigating how to halt and reverse ongoing nature and biodiversity loss and understanding how to implement and finance nature recovery that is scalable, effective, and socially just. The postholder will have opportunities to contribute to the development of CGFI, P3SA, and LCNR and other OxSFG projects and programmes. In 2023 a new Oxford Sustainable Finance Lab is opening in the very heart of Oxford. The Lab will be a physical space where Oxford researchers will co-locate with practitioners visiting from financial institutions, supervisory authorities, central banks, government departments, and civil society organizations. Visitors will collaborate with Oxford researchers as part of sprints, joint projects, and sandboxes, or simply use time in proximity to worldleading researchers to spark ideas off each other and learn from one another. The role The postholder will report to the Head of Transition Finance Research. The researcher will deliver the next generation of stress tests and scenarios to enhance the resilience of the global financial system to climate and environmental risks. The researcher will work in close partnership with central banks, supervisors, financial institutions, policymakers, and international organizations. A major focus of this work would be in developing countries, such as India and Thailand, where OxSFG has ongoing research projects, in collaboration with respective central banks, i.e., the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) as well as the Bank of Thailand (BoT). The role is strongly balanced towards research, but with opportunities for gaining teaching experience. Postholders will contribute to existing research projects and help create new ones in collaboration with the Head of Transition Research.
