About Tideline

Tideline is a specialist consulting firm that provides expert impact investing advice and has played a foundational role in building the field since the firm’s inception in 2014. Our mission is to enable leading investors to integrate and deliver impact with confidence, and our vision is a world that expects and trusts in the ability of all financial capital to contribute to a just society and thriving planet. To that end, our services include impact management strategy, implementation, and research and thought leadership.

With services focused on strategy and implementation, the firm supports impact investing platforms, programs, and vehicles globally across themes and sectors. Past clients have included diverse leading global asset owners, asset managers, and service providers active in impact investing across a variety of asset classes and sectors.

Impact is a guiding force for everything that we do – how we interact with clients, conduct ourselves as a business, and work with each other as teammates. We strive to deliver integral, field-leading work for our clients while also providing to the market an aspirational model of what a more regenerative business can look like.

About the position

In the next five years, Tideline aims to fortify our position in the impact market as the leading trusted advisor to institutional investors and to grow sustainably in order to deepen our market influence and invest in team. Currently, we have an incredible multi-disciplinary team that includes exceptional associates and analysts, along with our founding partner and one associate partner.

Internal operations and process improvements: Oversee staffing/resourcing of team members to internal and client-facing projects, taking into consideration individual team members’ areas of expertise, capacity, and professional development goals. Work with the senior management team to make service delivery more effective and efficient (for example, through identifying and integrating new software tools).

Business development: Lead the drafting of proposals and other business development materials, in collaboration with our marketing/BD team.
