The Company is seeking an Executive Director to join their Food and Fibre Corporate Advisory team. The successful candidate will be at the forefront of climate finance and nature-positive investment, working with a diverse range of clients to bridge the gap between sustainability targets and real-world outcomes in agricultural supply chains. This role involves designing and managing insetting programs, leading stakeholder engagement, and coordinating with funders, implementation partners, and farmers.
The Executive Director will also be responsible for business development, team leadership, and fostering a culture of collaboration and inclusivity. Essential skills include a minimum of 5 years' experience in climate or sustainability, with a robust background in consulting, food or fashion in-house roles, or agricultural roles, as well as experience in program coordination, project management, and financial planning.
The ideal candidate for this role at the company will have a proven track record in managing projects, leading teams, and developing strategic solutions to support clients in achieving net-zero and climate resilience.
A deep understanding of food and fashion supply chains, agricultural decarbonization pathways, and experience in stakeholder management are critical. The role requires a professional with exceptional analytical and interpersonal skills, a drive for problem-solving, and a passion for tackling the climate crisis. While not mandatory, an understanding of carbon markets, particularly the Australian carbon credit scheme, is desirable.
The company values individuals who are adaptable, proactive, and able to thrive in a quick-moving, fluid workplace, and who are committed to the values of intellectual rigor, catalytic collaboration, and thoughtful transformation.
