About Us

Isometric is a carbon removal registry. We issue the world’s most scientifically rigorous carbon credits to help Fortune 100 companies tackle climate change and prevent greenwashing.

We're growing quickly, but we’re intentional about hiring people who contribute to our unique culture. Our team is smart, meticulous and courageous—but warm, kind and supportive too.

We’re led by Eamon Jubbawy, an experienced CEO who previously co-founded Onfido, the world’s leading AI-powered identity verification platform. He scaled the company to $100m+ in revenue—verifying over half a billion identities and catching 23 million fraudsters—before selling the company for $650m. Eamon started Isometric in 2022 to bring the same level of rigorous fraud prevention, confidence and trust to the carbon removal industry.

The wider Isometric team includes scientists from Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT, Yale and Stanford—and technologists from companies like Amazon, Shopify, Meta, Google, Wise and Palantir.

We’re backed by world-class investors with real-world experience in climate change and company building: Lowercarbon Capital and Plural.

Join us if you're ready to take on a career-defining role. Working here will be unlike any job you've had before!

About the role

Join our growth function as a Partnerships Manager to build and manage relationships with carbon removal (CDR) suppliers, contribute to the development of cutting-edge solutions, and collaborate with world-class scientists to combat climate change head-on. Join us in paving the way for a sustainable future.


You will…

  • Discuss technical, often scientific, topics with external audiences.

  • Build relationships with a range of carbon removal suppliers and take ownership of contract negotiations from start to finish.

  • Track all the CDR suppliers within the removal pathways you lead on (e.g. enhanced weathering), ensuring we know what everyone is doing and develop strategies for how best to position ourselves.

  • Bring insights gathered from supplier interactions into Isometric's protocol development, ensuring our rigorous scientific requirements are balanced with practical realities.

  • Support ongoing improvement of our supplier onboarding and relationship management processes.

  • Coordinate between Isometric team members across different divisions (Science, Growth, Technology) to identify and address blockers to working with target suppliers.


You have…

  • Demonstrated expertise in managing and driving high-stakes partnerships, particularly in environments that require innovative and strategic thinking.

  • Proven ability to effectively navigate the multiple different stakeholders in an external organization.

  • Aptitude for quickly diving into complex topics and gaining a strong enough understanding to credibly discuss them with technical audiences, such as scientists.

  • Strong communication, inter-personal, and negotiation skills.

  • Desirable: experience leading and closing commercial negotiations.

  • Desirable: experience in carbon markets or adjacent sectors.

  • STEM academic background.

  • The right to work in the US.


This role might not be for you if

  • You don’t like note taking, pipeline reviews or CRM hygiene. Attention to detail and rigor are critical for success here.

  • You’re looking for a fully remote role at the moment. In the early stages of building our product we’re optimizing for being physically together 3 days a week.

  • You enjoy structure and only staying within your area of expertise. We’re a small team early on the journey and things change quickly as we learn more.

  • You prefer a slower pace. While the problem we’re facing has a long time horizon, it’s also critical that we make meaningful progress on it today, not next quarter or year.
