Remote Rabo Agri Finance Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Global demand for food, fiber, and energy is accelerating, intensifying pressure on natural ecosystems and driving climate change. In South America, TNC has long worked to halt deforestation linked to cattle ranching, soy production, and other land use change. A core strategy has been developing innovative finance mechanisms that help producers expand beef, soy, and agroforestry production without further habitat loss.
To scale this work, TNC, the United Nations Environmental Program (UNEP), and the World Economic Forum (WEF) launched the Innovative Finance for the Amazon, Cerrado and Chaco (IFACC) initiative in 2021. IFACC mobilizes companies, financial institutions, and investors to accelerate deforestation and conversion free finance across Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. As of December 2025, 26 signatories have deployed nearly US$1 billion aligned with IFACC's Environmental and Social Framework.
IFACC also supported the creation of Catalytic Capital for the Agricultural Transition (CCAT), a Brazilian fund providing subordinated debt to expand deforestation-free soy, cattle, and agroforestry production. Launched in 2025 with US$50 million, CCAT is managed by Vox Capital, with TNC serving as Impact Advisor.
Building on this momentum, IFACC is now expanding globally, engaging financial institutions, supply chain companies, and catalytic capital providers to channel capital towards a more sustainable agricultural transition.
