Vice President, Orange Movement - India

About the Orange Movement

Launched in 2022, the Orange Movement™ is a global initiative led by IIX Global to integrate gender equality and climate action into financial markets. At its core are Orange Bonds™ — the world's first gender-lens and climate-focused asset class — designed to.

Mobilize US$15 billion in capital markets by 2030

Positively impact 150 million women, girls, and gender minorities

Position women and gender minorities as leaders in climate resilience and adaptation

The Orange Movement advances this vision through capital mobilization, policy reform, global partnerships, training, and advocacy. With US$2 billion already mobilized and a new US$1 billion Orange Climate Fund anchoring a US$10 billion cooperation agreement with the Government of Indonesia, the Movement is entering a pivotal scale-up phase — with an active co-funder base, formalized governance infrastructure, and the Orange Forum as its flagship annual convening.

The Vice President, Membership & Commercial Partnerships owns the Orange Movement’s membership growth: signing, onboarding, and retaining the fee-paying members and commercial partners that fund the Movement’s work. This is a revenue role. You will lead the founding-member campaign, shape the membership model with the Head of Orange Movement, and build a pipeline of financial institutions, corporates, DFIs, and other organizations across Asia and beyond.

Grant funding, event sponsorship, and governance sit with a separate lead, so this role is focused entirely on fee-paying members and commercial partners. You will work closely with that lead, the Europe lead, and IIX’s Innovative Finance team, which leads Orange Bond structuring and labelling.
