Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom Climate17 Full time
SBTi Measurement and Verification Manager – Interim

Location: Germany, UK, and USA

Job Purpose and Background:

The Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has empowered thousands of companies and financial institutions to set climate targets and have these targets validated in line with science. By increasing the transparency of private sector climate action through improved measurement and reporting requirements, the SBTi will bring further transparency to the progress made towards science-based targets. To enable assessment of achievement of targets, the SBTi will develop requirements related to target delivery that will define the allowable approaches companies can take to achieve decarbonization and what constitutes alignment towards net-zero transformation. The Measurement and Verification Manager is responsible for incorporating these topics into revisions of the Corporate Net-Zero Standard, engaging internally and with external experts to consult on these topics.

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Integrate disclosure requirements for companies to enable transparent tracking of target progress and assessment of impact into the Corporate Net-Zero Standard.
  2. Incorporate a continuous improvement mechanism into the Corporate Net-Zero Standard to ensure accountability for progress towards net-zero.
  3. Deliver outputs comprising Measurement & Reporting approach and integration of criteria, recommendations, and guidance into the Corporate Net-Zero Standard.
  4. Contribute to communications material related to the project, such as presentations, case studies, blog posts, and other communication documents as needed.
  5. Ability to work independently with minimal supervision in a mostly virtual environment.
  6. Entrepreneurial, self-motivated, and able to work independently in an international and multicultural remote work environment.
  7. Excellent writing and communication skills, including the ability to make complex technical subjects accessible to non-expert audiences.

This is a full-time role based in Germany, UK, or USA. The salary for this role will depend on location and experience level. This is a full-time, fixed-term interim role until January 2026.
