Job description

About Us

We’re a mission-driven, well-funded startup on the cusp of launching a game-changing climate-tech platform, backed by three global banks . Our goal? To simplify complex challenges and help businesses build for the future. SMEs drive a significant share of global emissions but often lack the tools, resources, and support to respond. We’re delivering bold, practical solutions that enable them to operate smarter, stay ahead of regulation, and meet rising expectations from customers, investors, and partners.

Our platform empowers financial institutions and large organisation to work directly with their clients and supply chain partners to reduce operational risk, mitigate their climate impact, and drive real cost savings. We deploy through major institutions, enabling deep decarbonisation across global supply chains, fuelled by powerful data and automation. If you’re looking to build something that truly matters at the intersection of technology, sustainability, and impact, this is your chance to get in early and help shape a category-defining company.

• Work closely with stakeholders, including customers, sales, and senior leadership, to gather requirements and ensure alignment, while proactively communicating product updates and progress.
• Conduct market research and analyse customer feedback to inform product decisions and ensure products meet customer needs and deliver a superior user experience.
• Define and track key product metrics to measure success and inform future iterations.
• Use data-driven insights to optimise product performance.
• Creating and maintaining high quality documentation
