Jobbeschreibung

At Ecobase, we help landowners unlock the full potential of their land, creating value for both the climate and their business.

• Excellent communication, negotiation, and presentation skills- you can explain complex ideas in a clear and compelling way.
• Motivation to take on a more outward-facing,commercial rolewhile building your experience in client engagement and deal-making.
• Strong understanding of forest dataand digital tools (e.g., inventory systems, GIS, or remote sensing).
• Fluency in Swedish and English, both written and spoken.
• Ability to work independently in a remote setup, while also collaborating effectively with cross-functional teams.
• Motivation to thrive in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where you can take ownership and make an impact.

Bonus:

• Knowledge of carbon finance, nature-based solutions, or forest certification schemes.
• An existing network within Sweden's forestry or landowner community.
• Sales or commercial experience in a forestry, agri-environmental, or land-based services context.
