How you will make an impact
Instiglio offers a unique work experience at the intersection of the private, public, and social sectors. As an Associate you will gain expertise by contributing to the development of Results Based Financing (RBF) instruments while playing a crucial role in the execution of our projects. You will gain thorough understanding of different design choices, independently assess tradeoffs, and make recommendations for technical design of RBF instruments.
