Entrepreneurship in the territories: is it the right time?

Tara Climate is a regionally-based philanthropic foundation with a vision of a just and thriving society in Asia powered by renewable energy.
The Asia Climate Philanthropy Advisory is now seeking a high-performing leader to join as its Director of Philanthropy to lead efforts to draw in, engage and build strong relationships with high-potential donors and philanthropists, while developing tailored strategies to channel capital and advocacy towards impactful climate solutions in Asia. Reporting to the Inaugural Chief Executive Officer, the Director will ensure the Advisory builds and sustains a robust pipeline by driving engagement, channelling resources and spearheading strategies in network building and bespoke giving support. The Director will foster direct relationships with ultra-high-net-worth-individuals in key Asian wealth centres (i.e. Hong Kong and Singapore), working closely with the Director of Climate (Strategy and Communications) to deliver curated climate solutions, giving opportunities and proposals that appeal to Asian philanthropists’ interests and address the region’s most pressing climate challenges.
The ideal candidate will bring an excellent track record in principal-level fundraising where large-ticket deals have been secured, prospect research, and translating intelligence into action. The successful candidate will be a seasoned network builder and a strategic and innovative communicator, with the ability to leverage networks in support of an organisation's mission. Crucially, the ideal Director of Philanthropy will bring a demonstrated enthusiasm and a sense of optimism to significantly increase climate philanthropy in Asia. Familiarity with the climate and sustainability landscape in Asia is highly advantageous.
