Working in the ESG+ Department at FMO
"What motivates me are the situations in the regions we work in. The dedication you show is evident in the project's outcomes, and frequently impacts us on a personal scale. It's clear to see who we're striving to make a positive difference for. — Alexandra Freitas, Senior Environmental & Social Officer
At FMO, we believe in a world in which, by 2050, more than 9 billion people live well and within planetary boundaries. This is the future we are working towards. To achieve our mission in line with our Strategy 2030: Pioneer, Develop, Scale, the ESG+ department plays a critical role in bringing it to life. As agents of change, the department promote well-planned identification and management of Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance risks--like through our various open-source ESG Toolkits. The department also seeks out opportunities that add value and that can facilitate positive outcomes, to ensure that our investments contribute towards a better and more sustainable world. #WorkatFMO
The FMO Benefits
Employee wellbeing is a crucial point of focus here at FMO, which is why we do our utmost best to be an attractive and competitive employer that offers a range of benefits, both financial and non-financial. The salaries provided are in accordance with the Collective Labor Agreement Banks. We also have a strong focus on flexibility with working hours. While a full-time working week is 40 hours, you can also opt for a working week of 32 or 36 hours. Prefer even less? That can be discussed with your manager.
"FMO’s Working Remote Abroad policy helps me stay in touch with friends and family. It's a great benefit which I appreciated very much, as it gives me the right work and personal balance. — Chukwudi Onyejekwe, Environmental & Social Officer for Financial Institutions
Based on a full-time contract, there are 31 paid days off per year with the opportunity to buy another 10 days. We also work 50-50, meaning you can spend up to half of your working hours at home, and you can work remotely abroad for a period of up to one month, for a maximum of three times per year.
Our state-of-the-art offices are located a short walk from a train station, and the costs for commuting to the office by public transport are fully covered by FMO.
Finally, we offer a modern pension scheme which includes our employee contribution.
