Job Description

Pentagreen Capital

Pentagreen Capital is a debt financing platform dedicated to accelerating the development of sustainable infrastructure in Asia. With an initial focus on Southeast Asia, we aim to contribute to the effort to mitigate and facilitate adaptation to climate change, and address sustainability challenges in the region.

Our target sectors include, but are not limited to, renewable energy and storage, clean mobility, water and waste treatment and circular economy. Additional areas such as climate adaptation, agriculture and land use, as well as technology-led solutions, could be included in the future.

Pentagreen\xe2\x80\x99s strategic partners include the Asian Development Bank, which provides origination and technical support through its presence in countries throughout the region, and Singapore\xe2\x80\x99s Clifford Capital Holdings, which provides operational support as well as project finance expertise.
