Job Description

Join us on a mission to save the planet!

Reversing the impact of climate change is one of the world\'s biggest challenges. And businesses have a responsibility to lead the way. While individual consumer choices are important, over 80% of all the emissions reductions necessary for the world to reach Net-Zero, require business-level action. But despite the growing momentum and ambition from companies around the world to set Net-Zero goals, there are significant challenges to delivering on these ambitions. Business leaders don\'t really know how they will get there. And the very first step, of getting emissions measurement right, is hard.

Terrascope is a smart carbon management and accounting platform that empowers corporations to decarbonise their operations, portfolios and supply chains in a trusted, confident, and secure manner. We are on a journey to build digital tools and analytics, datasets and algorithms, and an ecosystem of technical expertise and partnerships needed for companies to optimise their climate strategy.

Terrascope is backed by one of the world\'s largest food and agri companies and global leader in climate action and sustainability. With their significant strategic advantage and secure funding, the venture is uniquely positioned to drive profit with purpose; driving decarbonization in supply chains while generating outsized financial returns.

As a tech company building a SaaS decarbonisation platform, Terrascope\'s Sustainability team provides specialised climate change knowledge and expertise across two functions:

• Decarbonisation specialists to provide corporate decarbonisation advice, from emissions measurement to data driven GHG reduction strategies and actions.
• Climate Regulations and Reporting specialists to provide advice on the emerging climate disclosure rules and reporting requirements globally.

Our experts support key teams and functions within Terrascope in order to build a world class decarbonisation product - in particular the Commercial, Product, Data Science, Implementation and R&D, and Design teams.

Terrascope also recently announced the appointment of our .

• State of climate regulations: this project will research climate change policies being implemented by governments and organisations that aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These regulations can include emissions reduction targets, monitoring reporting and verification of corporate carbon accounting, sector-specific requirements, and carbon pricing mechanisms, among other strategies.
