Profiel

In this position you will be the Fund manager of Hivos Triodos Fund and the Nature-Based Solutions Impact Platform.

With EUR 65 million AUM and new investments from Dutch Entrepreneurial Development Bank (FMO) and the development bank of Austria (OeEB), HTF is entering a new phase of growth and impact.

Building on this experience, Triodos IM is launching the Triodos Nature-Based Solutions Impact Platform (NBSIP) in 2026, a new, closed-end blended finance fund targeting investments in sustainable forestry, nature restoration, conservation, and sustainable agriculture in Africa, India and Latin America. NBSIP brings together public and institutional investors and represents a new asset class for Triodos IM, requiring close collaboration with external stakeholders.
