Renewable World (RW) Vacancy for Head of Finance and Operations

Renewable World (RW) is an International NGO (INGO) headquartered in the UK, with country offices in Nepal and Kenya. 

1.2 billion people are still living in poverty, inequality is rising, and the world is failing to decarbonise quickly enough to avoid climate disaster. The world’s poorest people contributed little to climate change, yet they are the most impacted, and least able to adapt. This is not fair. And it is not sustainable.

We envision a sustainable and fairer world where clean energy is accessible to all-because with clean energy, both people and planet can thrive. By 2030, we aim to enable over 500,000 people living in poverty to transform their lives by improving their access to clean energy, empowering them to develop sustainable and resilient livelihoods, and mitigating the impact of climate change.
