JPMorgan, one of the biggest names in the financial services sector, is planning to recruit a climate change expert in its sustainable investing team amid a jump in demand for sustainable investment products.

 

The London-based role requires applicants to have deep expertise in “climate-related financial and risk analysis,” according to the details listed on the company’s LinkedIn page.

 

Posted during the first week of January 2024, the role has already attracted more than 100 applications. The new hire, who will join the firm as a Vice President, will report to JPMorgan’s Global Head of Sustainable Investing Research.

 

“Our preference is for candidates with strong, existing investment research experience in delivering climate insights – covering climate risk assessment and attribution as well as implementing methodologies and investment frameworks across listed equity, credit, and other asset classes,” the role summary says.

 

JPMorgan is boosting its global team with over 4,500 open positions across different departments, including dozens of positions related to climate analysis and sustainable investing. In addition to the hiring of a climate expert in the sustainable investing team, the bank is also seeking candidates for the role of a climate risk data associate in London.

 

JPMorgan’s recent hiring boost in climate analysis and sustainable investing comes at a time when the global jobs market is battling massive layoffs. Tech firms Stripe, Opendoor, Chime, Zillow, Cerebral, Brex, and, Twitter, among others, laid off thousands of employees in 2023. However, climate tech was a bright spot in the dark last year for tech firms.

 

A recent report by TechCrunch shows that climate tech companies hired thousands of people in 2023 and the industry is set to become the “hot job market” in 2024.
