  • Senior leadership experience at the intersection of climate policy, research, and decision-making.
  • Expertise in climate mitigation, adaptation, and climate solutions.
  • Experience working with governments, Indigenous organizations, and decision-makers.
  • Strong relationship-building, communication, and strategic thinking skills.
  • A passion for translating knowledge into action and impact.

Position details:
