Dalberg Advisors is a strategic advisory firm combining the best of private sector strategy skills and rigorous analytical capabilities with deep knowledge and networks across emerging and frontier markets. We work collaboratively across the public, private and philanthropic sectors to fuel inclusive growth and help clients achieve their goals.

About You
You aspire to become a social impact leader by tackling some of the most critical issues facing society today—from advancing gender equity and justice, to addressing climate change, to expanding financial inclusion and economic mobility.

You bring structured problem‑solving skills, strong analytical thinking, and a commitment to translating evidence into practical, actionable solutions. You are comfortable engaging with data and analysis and open to using new tools (including AI‑enabled approaches) where they add value—always in service of impact, equity, and sound judgment.

You are a motivated self‑starter with an entrepreneurial mindset and a desire to work in a collaborative, mission‑driven environment. You are excited to build your career in Washington DC or Seattle, contributing to locally anchored and globally relevant work.
