What is Allied Climate Partners (ACP)?&nbsp;
ACP is a philanthropically-backed investment organization with a mission to accelerate the flow of capital for the climate transition in emerging economies. ACP&rsquo;s goal is to aggregate equity for climate-focused, early-stage project development and business funds. The funds are meant to address a critical bottleneck in sustainable infrastructure &ndash; the lack of bankable, climate-related projects and businesses. ACP selects regional investment managers and makes anchor investments of first-loss equity. ACP helps these managers aggregate climate-focused equity funds with a mandate on the early, development stages of projects and asset-oriented businesses. ACP also provides investment managers with value-added support in strategy, recruiting, fundraising, and partnerships. Over time, ACP will seek to establish additional mandates across different themes and geographies in addition to project development.&nbsp;
ACP&rsquo;s initial focus regions are Southeast Asia, Africa, Caribbean &amp; Central America, and India. ACP is building on the initial success and proof of concept of the Southeast Asia Clean Energy Facility (<a href="https://www.seacef.org/">SEACEF</a>). ACP&rsquo;s first fund commitment was to anchor SEACEF II, managed by Clime Capital, which reached a $127M first close in December 2023. SEACEF II makes catalytic, early-stage investments in climate-focused projects and companies in Southeast Asia. Over time, ACP intends to aggregate capital to support strategies focused on catalyzing capital formation around business platforms addressing other aspects of energy transition in developing economies.&nbsp;
ACP is an independent nonprofit organization with separately owned, for-profit subsidiaries. ACP has been incubated by <a href="https://www.threecairnsgroup.com/">Three Cairns Group</a>, a philanthropy and investment firm focused on global climate action, based in New York. In addition to Three Cairns, ACP initial funders include Arnold Ventures, Ballmer Group, Bezos Earth Fund, Anita and Josh Bekenstein, the Children's Investment Fund Foundation (CIFF), Sea Change Foundation International, the Soros Economic Development Fund (SEDF) and several others.&nbsp;
ACP has strategic partnerships with a number of leading MDBs and DFIs, including the International Finance Corporation (IFC), a member of the World Bank Group; U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC); British International Investment (BII), the UK&rsquo;s DFI and impact investor; the African Development Bank (AfDB); Proparco, a subsidiary of Agence Fran&ccedil;aise de D&eacute;veloppement Group; FMO, the Dutch Entrepreneurial Development Bank; and IDB Invest, a member of the Inter-American Development Bank Group. ACP also signed a strategic partnership agreement with the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), the Singapore-headquartered global investment company Temasek, and IFC to increase the number of bankable climate projects in Asia.&nbsp;
The Chief Executive Officer of ACP is <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ahmed-saeed-a586a153/">Ahmed Saeed</a>, who prior to ACP served as the Asian Development Bank&rsquo;s Vice President for Southeast Asia, East Asia, and the Pacific. ACP&rsquo;s Chair is <a href="https://www.threecairnsgroup.com/mark-gallogly">Mark Gallogly</a>, Co-Founder and Managing Principal of Three Cairns Group, and a 35+-year career investor and climate advocate. ACP currently has a team of approximately 10 full-time equivalents, who are focused on building the organization.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
ACP&rsquo;s Investments&nbsp;
ACP&rsquo;s investment activities are primarily focused on investments in funds, where ACP will act as a foundational / anchor Limited Partner committing first-loss junior equity in blended finance fund structures.&nbsp; A key element of ACP&rsquo;s investment approach is to catalyze fund formation itself by creating or co-creating fund mandates for investment in climate-related projects and companies alongside general partners and then making the first commitments to the fund.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The initial focus of ACP is on investment in dedicated climate funds that invest equity (and convertible debt) into projects, project platforms and early-stage companies. ACP is not seeking to invest in funds that take technology risk, preferring those that are focused on accelerating the deployment of well-understood globally-derisked climate solutions in emerging economies.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The Role
ACP is seeking a Vice President, Investments (VP) as an integral member of ACP&rsquo;s global investing team. The VP will report to the Managing Director, Investments.&nbsp;
As a member of ACP&rsquo;s global investing team, the VP will contribute to all the steps of ACP&rsquo;s investment process in a collaborative fashion with other members of the team. This begins with fully understanding the challenges and opportunities in each region and/or sector by actively engaging with market participants and performing qualitative and quantitative market analysis leading to a proposed theory of change. The VP will then plan and execute on the process of creating / co-creating tailored, high-impact, ACP fund mandates and strategies. To fulfill these mandates, the VP will contribute to sourcing, evaluating, and recommending potential fund managers. The VP will also conduct due diligence on the selected funds and support the MD in all transactions for ACP. Post fund investment, the VP will work collaboratively with selected fund managers to add value to their activities and help them succeed and grow.&nbsp;
As a new organization, ACP is looking for an adaptable, organized, and entrepreneurial individual. Ideally, the VP will have:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Investment experience, including due diligence and transaction structuring;&nbsp;</li>
<li>A strong investing track record (ideally in EMDEs, climate and infrastructure). Experience across a range of platforms (e.g. funds, project developers etc.) is a plus;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Experience investing alongside DFIs and MDBs;&nbsp;</li>
<li>A deep network in EMDEs, including amongst fund investors;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Climate sector knowledge.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
The VP will contribute across the full life cycle of each investment as part of ACP&rsquo;s global investments team.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Location: Non-US, with a preference for Europe, Dubai, or London. International travel of ~40% expected. Team and fund managers are located globally (including US East Coast, Africa, Singapore), so flexible working hours will be required.&nbsp;&nbsp;

<div id="block-e8b7f4669a3f467d9c8952ecf19102ea" class="notion-text">
Methane is a very special greenhouse gas. Although it remains only 10 years in the atmosphere, its warming impact is 85x as high as CO2 on a 20-year time scale. Overall, it accounts for a third of the global temperature increase since the industrial revolution.
</div>
<div id="block-2c75727ce3a041d0adf09871b54d952b" class="notion-text">
Rapid methane abatement is the biggest opportunity to mitigate near-term warming and prevent the triggering of dangerous climate tipping points. 
</div>
<div id="block-4d0fa8523d9641df9b1db65692f0cba9" class="notion-text">
Enteric fermentation alone accounts from 30% of anthropogenic methane and 10% of greenhouse gas emissions. This digestive process occurs in the rumen, the stomach of ruminant animals (cattle, sheep, goats).
</div>
<div id="block-e7763fdcf61c485bbd231bfa68fa0933" class="notion-text">
Various mitigation strategies have been proposed. Feed additives like 3NOP, bromoform, and seaweed can partially tackle enteric methane in feedlots, about 10% of cattle population. Capture systems could be a useful yet marginal solution. Methanogen vaccines would be transformative, but commensal microbes are proving insanely hard to deactivate. 
</div>
<div id="block-bfe93c40c1a14b8aab8ae6463bc92610" class="notion-text">
Today no solution combines very high (&gt;80%) abatement rate, cost effectiveness, scaleability across geographies and agricultural systems, and safety, let alone positive increases on animal productivity.
</div>
<div id="block-3a1ac57f036f46a58f6ef8d8d09e5f1c" class="notion-text">
We are exploring novel approaches which could tick all these boxes.

<h2 id="block-aa4bd60c77c649568167d4919b50bfd8" class="notion-heading">The Opportunity</h2>
<div id="block-fa1c04e283eb4e449f0f7b92ff850aa7" class="notion-text">
We believe that microbiome interventions could stabilise the rumen in a state that does not emit methane in the first place. Hydrogen redistribution could provide the added benefit of increased animal productivity, but other levers could also be explored, such as methanotrophs, anaerobic fungi, antimicrobial peptides, and microbial cocktails. 
</div>
<div id="block-ce5c4f0154064811a96082ba04b5ffbe" class="notion-text">
Delivery mechanisms would have to be carefully considered to optimise costs, ease of delivery, regulatory approval and compatibility with farmer practices.

<div id="block-dcf5c5b933d24e47aace7c6f13cfd687" class="notion-text">
Achieving net zero by mid century will require a deployment of clean energy technologies at a speed and scale which has no historical precedent, to shift from consumable fossil fuels to a highly electrified system based on durable metals. 
</div>
<div id="block-a7c665828e2049199675057aab4a24e6" class="notion-text">
The supply of critical minerals is one of the most acute bottlenecks for the energy transition. Although the world holds more than enough resources, current supply pipelines cannot meet the rapidly growing demand for batteries, renewables and the power grid. 
</div>
<div id="block-7451ed1ae5c54d26b9af70927874b7f0" class="notion-text">
This gap is particularly acute for copper, lithium, graphite, and rare earth elements, with demand surges of 1.5-6x by 2030. Nickel and cobalt will also face tensions but evolutions in battery chemistries may help alleviate them.
</div>
<div id="block-cb138d4b95a5418fae88d876c100ba9c" class="notion-text">
Compounding these challenges are declining ore grades, long lead times for new mines (up to 20 years), and geographical concentration of mining and refining. Environmental impacts need to be minimised across energy, water, waste, pollution and CO2 emissions.
</div>
<div id="block-6efd528cc45b4bddb96bbe3c2d3b2d37" class="notion-text">
We are exploring novel approaches to close the supply gap of energy transition minerals with maximum speed, sustainability, and geographical diversification.
