Job Summary

As we scale our Responsible Business program, we're looking for an ESG & Sustainability Analyst to serve as the operational engine behind our ESG strategy - owning the data, reporting, and cross-functional coordination that turns commitments into measurable progress.

This is a highly visible, build-it-with-us role. You'll manage the day-to-day mechanics of ESG reporting and data collection across our manufacturing network, drive meaningful improvement in our EcoVadis rating, and help lead our readiness for The Climate Pledge - all while helping shape the longer-term strategy for how Responsible Business gets done. If you're energized by solving operational puzzles, building systems from scratch, and making sustainability real in a manufacturing environment, this role is for you.

What You'll Do...

ESG Data & Reporting

• Own the collection, validation, and organization of ESG data (energy, water, waste, and greenhouse gas emissions) across production centers.
• Build and maintain data collection systems and trackers, including utility bill data and site-level ESG KPIs, to support consistent, auditable reporting.
• Manage Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions reporting in line with the GHG Protocol, partnering with plant teams and internal SMEs to gather and verify data.
• Prepare recurring and ad-hoc ESG reports, briefing materials, and presentation decks for leadership, customers, and external stakeholders.

EcoVadis & Ratings Performance

• Lead the end-to-end EcoVadis assessment process, including evidence gathering, documentation, and submission.
• Identify and close scoring gaps across the EcoVadis pillars (Environment, Labor & Human Rights, Ethics, Sustainable Procurement) to drive year-over-year score improvement.
• Track performance against industry peers and benchmarks, and translate ratings feedback into concrete action plans.
• Serve as a key point of contact for ESG ratings and rankings organizations, audits, and customer sustainability questionnaires.

Climate Pledge Readiness & Strategy

• Help build the roadmap and reporting infrastructure needed to meet Vomela's commitments under The Climate Pledge, including emissions baselining and progress tracking.
• Support development of decarbonization initiatives and help evaluate their feasibility, cost, and impact across facilities.
• Conduct prioritization analyses to determine which risks and opportunities matter most, and help shape the multi-year Responsible Business strategy.
• Monitor emerging ESG regulations, disclosure frameworks, and industry trends, and translate them into practical recommendations.

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Build strong working relationships with plant operations, procurement, finance, and HR to source accurate, timely data.
• Respond to internal and external stakeholder requests with clear, well-organized analysis.
• Act as a trusted advisor who can explain ESG concepts simply and drive alignment across a large, distributed manufacturing footprint.

What You'll Bring...

• Bachelor's in Environmental Science, Sustainability, or Engineering (a business degree with demonstrated ESG/sustainability coursework or experience also considered).
• 2-5 years of experience in ESG, corporate sustainability, energy management, or a related analytical role; manufacturing or industrial experience strongly preferred.
• Hands-on experience with the EcoVadis platform, GHG Protocol (Scope 1/2/3), CDP, or similar ESG reporting frameworks preferred.
• Advanced Excel and data management skills; comfort building and maintaining trackers and databases across multiple sites.
• Strong preference for candidates with experience in GRI, TCFD/ISSB, SASB, SBTi, and CSRD/CSDDD.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to turn messy, distributed data into clear insight.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience building executive-ready presentations.
• A self-starter mindset - comfortable operating with ambiguity, building processes from the ground up, and managing multiple priorities.
• Genuine enthusiasm for sustainability and Responsible Business, paired with a pragmatic, get-it-done approach
