Requirements

To succeed in this role, we are looking for:

  • Minimum 5 years of experience (ideally in a consultancy, company or an NGO) with a specific nature/biodiversity-related focus that has given you a broad understanding of how to work with nature/biodiversity in the private sector
  • Good stakeholder and communication skills and a deep understanding of what motivates diverse groups
  • Excellent skills within the consultancy toolbox, e.g., data analysis (Excel), presentations (PowerPoint), proposal writing, etc.

What we offer:

  • A healthy work-life balance in an organisation that is actively moving towards a 4-day work week.
  • A strong learning environment surrounded by experts, where you can build up your sustainability knowledge
  • Flexible work hours and up to two days per week from home office
