  • The ability to translate sustainability challenges into practical and scalable commercial solutions
  • A strong understanding of corporate sustainability strategies, logistics emissions accounting methodologies and low‑carbon solutions
  • Strong stakeholder management, communication and presentation skills
  • The ability to operate effectively in a global matrix organisation.

You bring a customer‑centric mindset and are motivated by combining consultative selling, solution development and sustainability expertise. You take ownership, navigate complexity and build effective relationships with stakeholders at different levels of an organisation.
