AVPN is a unique funders' network committed to building a vibrant and high-impact social investment community across Asia.

-------------------
AVPN is looking for a highly motivated and detail-oriented Junior Associate to support the work of the Senior Manager, Global Markets, in stewarding relationships with AVPN's most strategic members (Catalyst and Vision tiers) across Australia, the US, and Europe.
This is not a classic assistant role -- while administrative and coordination tasks are part of the job, the Junior Associate will also play an active role in maintaining data quality, supporting member engagement, coordinating internal follow-up, and occasionally reaching out to members or partners directly. The role offers a unique opportunity to gain insight into high-level relationship management and to build trusted working relationships across AVPN's regional and thematic teams.
The ideal candidate is organised, proactive, and curious, with a strong service mindset and the confidence to work independently on smaller projects. They are energized helping complex systems run smoothly and are eager to grow into a role that blends structure with people engagement.
