Role Overview

You will help clients interpret emissions data across Scopes 1, 2, and 3 and translate findings into practical emissions-reduction strategies. Your work will include supporting greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories and related analyses, as well as product carbon footprints (PCFs) and life cycle assessments (LCAs). You will also help clients organize and evaluate data to prepare for compliance with evolving product and packaging regulations, including the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) requirements.

You will work with colleagues in Climate, Product and Packaging, and other service areas. Day to day, that means collecting and organizing client data, working in our inventory tools, checking results, and making technical findings clear and useful for project teams and clients.

• Review datasets for gaps, inconsistent records, outliers, and shifts between reporting periods, and share data needs and findings with the project team.

• Help interpret and present emissions results and related climate analysis, working alongside the project’s technical lead. Apply decarbonization skills to identify, evaluate, and prioritize emissions-reduction opportunities and support practical strategies across Scopes 1, 2, and 3.
