Manila, Philippines Wovoka Full time

Join Wovoka as a Financial Analyst in Manila and contribute to pioneering carbon project development in the Philippines. You will be integral in financial modeling, analyzing the carbon market, identifying strategic partners, and managing financial flows across our projects. This role offers the opportunity to collaborate closely with a dynamic team, engage with community-based projects, and drive significant environmental impact through innovative financial strategies.

Who We Are

Wovoka is a pioneering company at the forefront of carbon project development in the Philippines. Our mission is to combat climate change by empowering communities to grow biodiverse forests in Southeast Asia through high-quality, nature-based carbon solutions that directly sequester carbon from the atmosphere and help meet IPCC goals.

Our Core Values

Genuine and Transparent. Wovoka builds on trust. We are committed to producing high-quality carbon credits while holding ourselves accountable to industry standards for climate action and sustainable development. 

Scientific and Data-Driven. We are composed of trained scientists and researchers with expertise in terrestrial and marine sciences. We follow industry-standard protocols and utilize site-specific data in crafting our carbon models and measuring project baselines.

Collaborative. Wovoka is not alone in this mission. We partner with government agencies, reputable non-government organizations, and academic scientists who share our vision of a greener and more sustainable future. 

Community-Driven and Sustainable. Wovoka believes that the true stewards of forests are the people who call them home. We engage with local communities in Southeast Asia who are actively involved in the implementation of our nature-based carbon projects. We also design holistic projects and make a positive impact on the livelihood and socioeconomic status of the community.

What We Are Looking For

We are seeking a talented and determined Financial Analyst to join our team. This role combines financial modeling and client relations in the sustainability sector, particularly within the carbon credit market. As a bridge between technology, finance, and sustainability, the ideal candidate will drive financial modeling, design and develop structures for monitoring finances with multiple project partners, and represent Wovoka in closing deals with relevant stakeholders in the Philippines and internationally. 

This junior position will work closely with our COO and the carbon project development team based in Manila, with field staff across Bicol and Mindanao, and with our US-based CEO to help sell our work to the largest multinational firms and get multi-million dollar financing to fund restoration work with communities in the Philippines. 

Responsibilities

  • Conduct comprehensive external research, consolidate information into coherent presentations, and build financial models for ongoing projects and future project proposals.
  • Analyze the carbon market and identify potential partners and project investors from climate funds and corporations with net zero commitments.
  • Assist the team in undertaking in-depth carbon market analysis, identifying trends, insights, and opportunities for strategic decision-making.
  • Supervise the flow of money from multiple sources and ensure proper monitoring of cash inflows and outflows working with our professional accounting and tax firm to address any discrepancies from the budget vs. actuals.
  • Work closely with the executive team in preparing and presenting regular company reports to stakeholders.
  • Lead in creating PowerPoint presentations and help present to clients the financial model of a given project to build rapport with potential corporate buyers and nature investors.
  • Working at a startup entails wearing multiple hats, thus our Financial Analyst may take on tangential responsibilities not mentioned above.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's Degree in Business, Finance, or related fields. 
  • With 1-3 years of experience in management consulting, financial modeling, and/or related fields, although fresh graduates with strong educational backgrounds are welcome to apply.
  • Strong proficiency with numbers and math for business purposes (e.g. NPV, IRR)
  • Advanced proficiency in Google Suite (Sheets, Slides, etc), with strong analytical, communication, and presentation skills.
  • Experience in the sustainability and decarbonization sector, especially in carbon credits or the carbon market, is highly desirable.
  • A keen interest in and eagerness to learn more about nature-based solutions and carbon finance.
  • Key desire to join a small team of a fast-growing startup and willingness to creatively solve problems, even outside of main responsibilities.
  • Willing to do fieldwork and community engagement when necessary.

Compensation

Wovoka invests in its employees. The base monthly salary may range from PHP 80,000 to PHP 100,000, depending on the applicant's background and application performance. This is on top of performance-based bonuses that may be provided to employees and other benefits to ensure the well-being of employees is taken care of.
