Laudes Foundation provides our partners with philanthropic capital, expertise and connections. We work collectively with and through specific industries to help catalyse systems change. At the same time, we influence those working in the global financial system to redirect the flow of capital to ensure investment encourages good business practices.
We are a new, independent foundation joining the movement that is responding to the dual crises of climate change and inequality by supporting brave, innovative efforts that inspire and challenge industry to harness its power for good.
The Programme Officer will support the Built Environment team with the delivery of Laudes’ Built Environment programme, by supporting and scaling zero carbon, circular and inclusive built environment interventions that work with and through industry to address the dual crises of inequality and climate change.
