3 months ago

Cambridge, United Kingdom Risilience Full time

**Company Details
Risilience is seeking to employ an intern to join us in our mission to help businesses manage their exposure and response to the dual nature-climate crisis - the two biggest systemic threats facing the economy.

We have developed a unique modelling and analytics platform, founded on more than a decade of influential frameworks pioneered by Risilience’s founders at the Centre for Risk Studies at the University of Cambridge Judge Business School. The outputs of our models help corporations assess and navigate the risks and opportunities presented by the transition to a low-carbon, nature-positive economy.

Our software platform along with our advisory services helps companies produce climate
- and nature-related analytics to navigate their pathway to net zero and sustainable business practices.

The Risilience client base comprises a growing list of globally recognised brands, including Nestlé, Burberry and Reckitt. The pedigree of our solutions is supported by our deep academic and science-based roots and the close ties we maintain to the Cambridge Centre for Risk Studies.

**Role Details**

This role is to work within the Environmental Analytics team based in our Cambridge office. In this role, you will support the team to develop our suite of environmental and risk models. Your work will generate new insights through the collection, creation and interpretation of new data sets, to help solve challenges related to the quantification of environmental risks to business. You will be part of a talented team of climate modellers, economists, data scientists, and software engineers, as well as the wider company.

While we do offer flexibility, you will be expected to work from the Cambridge office during normal working hours.

**Essential Skills**
- Excellent problem-solving skills, including the ability to learn new topics.
- An ability to source information, organize and interpret datasets, and present results visually.
- Good communication skills, both written and verbal.
