Social Finance Manager - Pakistan

About the British Asian Trust: 

The British Asian Trust is a diaspora-led international development organisation, delivering high quality programmes in South Asia. Since our formation, we have reached the lives of over 18 million people across India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka with high-impact interventions to address the subcontinent’s critical unmet needs in areas of livelihoods, mental health, education, child protection and conservation.

Role overview:

The British Asian Trust’s Social Finance practice, launched in 2017, pioneers innovative financing models that link funding to measurable social outcomes. We designed and launched the world’s largest Quality Education Impact Bond in India (2018) and have since expanded with further programmes in education and employment across India, as well as leading Social Finance market development in Pakistan since 2020. By leveraging outcome-based financing, we are reshaping how aid and philanthropy drive lasting social impact.

Most recently, we designed Pakistan’s first impact bond for employment, working in close partnership with government and private sector stakeholders to bring this landmark initiative to life. With several new performance-linked projects, design and feasibility studies underway this is a pivotal moment of growth for the team.

We are now seeking a manager to join our Social Finance team in Pakistan. This role will be central to delivering our existing initiatives while driving forward new opportunities, partnerships, and innovations in the sector.
