Carbon Verifier (GHG Value Chain Certification)

Sequence, the nation's leading recruiter of climate change and greenhouse gas professionals for more than 25 years, has been exclusively retained to build out the global value chain certification practice from the world's most respected GHG validation and verification organization.

This engagement includes the immediate hiring of four key north American, south American, and European personnel.

Our client is leading the way in quantifying and reporting social and environmental impacts for some of the world's most notable sustainability interventions. Tasked with providing evidence of progress towards collective sustainability goals and ensuring climate pledges bring meaningful impact on the ground.

With this in mind, the organization has tasked us with expanding its practice efforts with key professionals capable of engaging globally. Specifically, we are seeking value chain certification professionals that serve as in-house technical experts for auditing of GHG projects and activities conducted in the context of sustainability reporting, with a particular focus on land-use related activities, including soil carbon enhancement and forest carbon sequestration. These individuals support the ongoing standardization process to establish long-term certification pathways and help maximize value and impact on clients.

General Responsibilities and Duties:

• Review quantification approaches that account for GHGs emissions reductions or removals in projects; focus on the agricultural and forestry sectors.
• Assist in planning and delivering GHG (Scope 3) reporting related projects and interventions.
• Auditing (observation, inquiry/surveys, analytical testing, measurement, cross-checking, etc.) to gather evidence during an on-site visit in support of a final GHG audit opinion.
• Assist with the preparation of validation and verification audit reports.
• Assist with the standardization of the value chain certification product offerings and creating auditing and verification tools.
• Contribute to the management of relationships with clients throughout the delivery process.

The right candidates would have an advanced degree in Environmental science or similar discipline (e.g., soil sciences, agriculture, forestry). Additionally, they would have at least one year of auditing experience and possess knowledge of certification processes (preferentially with GHG/Carbon projects). A strong plus to consideration would include 1 – 3 years of experience in academic or hands-on setting with soil sciences, ideally including knowledge of impacts on climate and soil carbon modeling.

The role requires the ability to travel up to 20% to project or client sites and can be based remotely anywhere in North or South America and Europe. Work language is conducted in English, but personnel embrace a wide number of fluencies, including Spanish, French, and German.

This could be the perfect role for a talented senior-level individual looking to find a long-term home with a growing and stable organization. It could also possibly be an opportunity for a talented mid-level professional looking to gain additional experience and progress into a leadership opportunity.

The company has a corporate culture that values individuals as resources. The organization has loyal employees who have been with the company for many years. They have watched it grow from a fledgling company to one that has developed with multiple offices and global professionals. The organization's policy is to solicit – indeed to expect – input from each of its employees. They foster an atmosphere of mutual respect and encourage the free exchange of ideas in order to remain a vibrant, thriving company. Leadership believes that this unique culture has resulted in the company having some of the industry's most engaged employees and one of the key reasons it leads industry competitors in almost all key performance metrics of note by comparison.

This same approach carries over to benefits as well as rewards for hard work. The company pays well, has performance bonuses, and offers robust benefits packages, including 401k, health care, dental/vision, life insurance, vacation/PTO, etc.

In terms of compensation, anything of reason compensation wise with base salary and performance bonus upside can be structured for the right individual.
