Head of Business Development (Asia)

About PIDG

At the Private Infrastructure Development Group (PIDG), we get infrastructure finance moving and multiplying – accelerating climate action and sustainable development where most urgently needed. We work with public and private partners to bridge financing gaps, directing capital and expertise into projects that promote climate resilience and sustainable growth. Working throughout the project lifecycle, we reduce financial risk, transform markets, and build local capacity, creating a deep and lasting impact.

We are a group of companies that work together to improve lives throughout south and south-east Asia and Africa. Active since 2002, more than 50% of our investments have been either in countries classified as Least Developed Countries or Fragile and Conflict Affected States. These are the countries where infrastructure gaps are the largest and most urgent and where the population is youngest and growing fastest. These are also the countries that contributed the least to climate change and yet are suffering the worse impacts, in some of the regions with the richest biodiversity left on the planet, which is quickly being depleted.

Building on a pioneering track record of integrating climate and inclusion considerations in infrastructure investment, we launched our 2030 strategy in 2023, which makes action on climate and nature, together with sustainable development through new and improved infrastructure, the central purpose of all we do.

About the role

The role holder will report directly to the Chief Investment and Project Development Officer and lead the Business Development (BD) team for the PIDG Project Development arm, in Asia. This position will be responsible for leading and managing a large team in the region, focusing on originating, developing and investing in both infrastructure projects and early-stage infrastructure companies, and working closely with development partners and co-sponsors to create bankable projects that will mobilise further investment at or after financial close.
