This is an exciting role in a fast-growing sustainability advisory working to enable businesses to prosper by being a force for good. We are driven by our passion to help to fix our planet and inspire society to change for the better.

What we are looking for

A Carbon Consultant with experience of carbon reporting and target setting who can support our clients on their journey to net zero emissions.

About us

At Seismic, we have 2 key goals within the next 5 years:

• To be the best employer that you have ever had.

• To enable 10,000,000 people join the shift

Along with creating impact through everything we do, connecting and building relationships is a core priority for us. This goes for our team too, which is made up of a strong mix of Strategy, Carbon, Communications & B Corp expertise throughout the UK and Europe.

We love working with our clients. From SMEs to multinational corporations, we are committed to enabling them to prosper by helping them become ever more impactful forces for good.

All that’s missing is you!

The role and its responsibilities

The exact role definition will be dependent on the desire, capability and experiences of the right person. Key responsibilities are likely to include:

• Supporting the strategy, growth and delivery of our Carbon Services, including Scope 1-3 Carbon Footprints, SECR, CDP, Life Cycle Assessments, Net Zero Pathways, Environmental Management System and SBTi.

• Proven track record leading the delivery and overall project management of core carbon services like Scope 1 – 3 Carbon Footprint

• Proactively identifying prospective client leads, then designing and selling projects with our Impact Development team, to help our clients utliise our expertise to achieve their sustainability goals

• Delivering a high quality service, within budget, that enables long term impact.

• Contributing to process improvement and optimisation within the Carbon Services and the wider teams

• Building strong and lasting relationships with colleagues, clients and our wider community

• Identifying needs that the clients may not recognise and ensuring approaches and solutions are linked to objectives and future needs

About you

You believe that humanity and businesses need to make a seismic shift in the right direction and want to apply your consulting and analytical capabilities to help make that happen. At the same time you want to work in a friendly, collaborative and empathetic team who are delivering impactful projects for high-profile clients.

To be successful in this role you would need the following attributes:

• Very confident processing and transforming data and genuinely enjoys analysis

• Proficient using advanced data analysis functions within MS excel and Google Sheets. Data analysis skills using other systems (e.g. Python and PowerBI) are preferable not essential

• Strong understanding with the GHG protocol and working knowledge of SBT methodology

• Experience leading Scope 1-3 projects

• Confident and competent consulting skills, including building client relationships, project management, report writing, presenting, and ultimately enabling client success.

Scope 3 calculation experience is required. Additional areas of experience which would also be of interest include carbon reduction pathway modelling and embodied carbon and life cycle impact exposure.

Importantly, you love client work and also working with teammates to iterate products and services. You are a team player – you like a laugh, but are not afraid to graft. You are a student of sustainability, have plenty to offer, and know you have even more to learn.

You are action oriented, have a keen eye for detail and enjoy juggling multiple projects and priorities and enjoy just the right amount of time pressure to help keep productive and focused. You are a ‘people person’ with a knack for building relationships with a diverse group of people.

You are more excited by the opportunities of working for a young, fast growing, ever evolving, purpose-driven business than for a large corporate.

Location

You will be within commuting distance of our London office, attending the office (Spitalfields) at least twice per week.

Working hours

We believe in flexible working hours to better suit our personal lives while being considerate of each other and our clients. We generally work office hours but trust each other to make fair decisions.

Salary and benefits

• 25 days annual leave per year pro-rata

• An extra day of annual leave for your birthday
