Our client, the largest nature conservation charity in Europe, sees working with natural capital markets as a key tool to support their mission to solve the climate and nature crisis. They have an established and growing focus on using carbon markets to help them, and their partners, deliver restoration and conservation at scale, both in the UK and internationally.

To drive these carbon programmes forward, they are seeking to recruit an experienced individual who can work right across the organisation and with partners. The suiccessful candidate will have a focus on UK carbon markets but some support for international work within the Global Conservation team might be required. This is an exciting time for how this charity does their work and the new tools they can use to make a difference for the environment, people and business.

What's the role about?
You will lead the delivery of this organisation's UK carbon programmes, reporting directly to the Head of Conservation Investment and primarily focused on helping develop investable projects both on and off the organisation's estate.

The UK programme is made up of delivery plans for each of the four UK countries, and several different funders, and therefore requires careful coordination. As part of this work, you will have responsibility for maintaining an update consolidated pipeline of carbon projects from across the UK while also holding the overview of programme risks. This pipeline of projects will then feed into the Business Engagement team for sales and partnership opportunities. You will also support the building of relationships and collaborations with other market players such as investors and start-ups interested in carbon markets.

You will be responsible for the management of the Conservation Investment financial budget related to carbon, for project governance and coordination, and for the production of relevant reports and other documentation.

You will lead on updating and maintaining the charity's policy on voluntary carbon markets working across different policy teams and countries across the organisation. You will represent the organisation, providing technical expertise and engage with codes and standards, through their evolution and alignment with UK and global policy. A key aspect of this work will be supporting the development of high integrity markets that build confidence and lead to delivery for climate and nature. In doing this work you will also have oversight and management of this charity's carbon projects on relevant registries.

The ideal candidate will have proven experience of working with environmental markets and in-depth knowledge of carbon markets. You must be able to deal effectively with complex issues and be a keen team player. Experience of project planning and management is essential, and you should be able to work across multiple countries and teams. You will support the Business Engagement team in developing the carbon sales and partnership strategy and ensuring that the organisation works to current best practice and standards.

Essential skills, knowledge and experience:

  • Experience of working within the carbon and climate sectors
  • Ability to develop policy and governance for a large multi-country organisation and achieve buy-in
  • Excellent understanding of the UK voluntary carbon markets and associated standards
  • Demonstrable ability to manage complex programmes and changes within them
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to find creative solutions
  • Demonstrable leadership ability - able to drive programmes forward without direct line management authority
  • Clear communication skills, to summarise progress and challenges and articulate solutions to the Head of Conservation Investment and internal Programme Board structures
  • Ability to represent this charity's work to external stakeholders, giving clear guidance on this organisation's objectives
  • Confidence to make decisions without needing to refer upwards, within agreed boundaries
  • Competence with standard IT applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and SharePoint
  • Knowledge and experience of financial management
  • Strong written communication skills
  • Ability to work under pressure and adapt to changing circumstances
  • Proven time management and organisational skills
  • Diplomacy and negotiation skills

Desirable skills, knowledge and experience:

  • Working within the conservation and environment sector
  • APM or PMI registered
  • International carbon markets with a focus on working with REDD+
