Strategy Manager/Engagement Manager-Energy Platform

<h3>About Us: </h3><p>veritree is an award-winning climate tech start-up based in Vancouver. Launched in 2021, our technology measures and verifies the impact of global restoration efforts from the ground-up. We are a small team on a big mission to plant 1 billion verified trees by 2030 with our community of businesses, planting organisations, and consumers who believe in the transformative power of verified restoration projects to create real and meaningful impact for the planet, nature and people. </p><h3>Why veritree?</h3><p>To limit global warming to 1.5°C requires immediate, deep reductions across all sectors and holistic ecosystems restoration and conservation. It is estimated that a total investment in nature of up to <a href="https://www.unep.org/news-and-stories/press-release/world-needs-usd-81-trillion-investment-nature-2050-tackle-triple">US$8.1 trillion by 2050</a> is required if the world is to meet its climate change and nature targets. Mobilizing and accelerating private finance to restore and protect nature is now mission critical. Yet, climate finance is at an inflection point. While the voluntary carbon market remains the most viable vehicle to fund climate actions at scale, the current market is plagued by widespread, fundamental flaws. The market has been under scrutiny for self-regulation, lack of transparency, over-crediting and lack of ongoing monitoring. </p><p>veritree is building the next generation digital platform to accelerate investment in nature-based carbon solutions. veritree’s digital measurement, reporting and verification (dMRV) technology enables the tracking of impacts throughout a project lifecycle to provide end-buyers with the confidence that their investment is making a real impact with positive outcomes. Our goal is to transform the way carbon emission reduction and removals as well as holistic impacts are measured, monitored, forecasted, and verified for nature-based carbon solutions. </p><h3>About The Role: </h3><p>veritree is now seeking a highly motivated builder to join our team as the Director, Carbon Strategy. This role will help establish and scale veritree’s presence within the nature-based carbon space. This candidate will report directly to the CEO and serve as a part of the leadership team, acting as the head of the newly formed Carbon division. This role will be responsible for driving the strategy and execution for veritree’s carbon work across a number of key pillars: (1) project origination work both domestically and internationally, (2) consulting on product, platform, and go-to-market strategy as the veritree technology evolves to support the changing needs of carbon project development, and (3) establishing a go-to-market strategy that leverages veritree’s rapidly growing customer base and helps provide them with an innovative nature-based carbon product. </p><p>This role will be multifaceted and requires a builder that has a very deep understanding of domestic and international carbon markets and can understand signal vs. noise when developing veritree’s strategy. The chosen candidate will need to bring together different stakeholders (ie. external developers, financing organizations, consultants, etc.), work with a variety of technical experts and working groups, interface with clients, and ultimately lead the delivery of an industry leading carbon project. </p><p>The Director, Carbon Strategy will be responsible for market strategy, building an attractive carbon product, building a motivated team, and ensuring that deadlines are set, milestones are achieved, and deliverables are managed in a dynamic and constantly evolving space - carbon.

Vice President, Engineering

<p><strong>ABOUT AMERICAN FORESTS: &nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>American Forests is a national non-profit organization committed to creating healthy and resilient forests from cities to large landscapes, that deliver essential benefits for climate, people, water, and wildlife. We advance our mission through forestry innovation, place-based partnerships to plant and restore forests, and movement building. We envision a world in which the significant environmental, societal, and economic benefits of forests are fully realized and equitably available to all people. Established in 1875, American Forests is the oldest national non-profit conservation organization in the U.S. working to restore urban forests and forested landscapes.</p>
<p>American Forests is proud to be a diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible workplace. These are our shared values. We welcome individuals who bring a variety of backgrounds and experiences to be a part of our team to help make a difference individually and collectively as we work toward achieving our mission. We are committed to fostering an environment that is welcoming and respectful and provides opportunities for advancement and professional growth for every team member. We hope you find your future with us.</p>
<p><strong>PROJECT SUMMARY: &nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>America&rsquo;s forests are a critical natural climate solution. Reforestation/afforestation offers the most immediate and ample carbon removal solution. There are many opportunities for this in the U.S., with as much as 148 million acres suitable for reforestation (ReforestationHub.org). Yet, deployment of quality reforestation at scale has been limited by high upfront costs that are out of sync with the timeline for carbon removal.&nbsp;</p>
<p>American Forests&rsquo; Reforest America Carbon Program (RACP) is designed to address the financing challenges associated with reforestation/afforestation and advance the highest quality climate-adapted projects. Over the past year, American Forests has worked with landowners, forest carbon experts, carbon registries, and businesses to design RACP to help meet the country&rsquo;s growing reforestation needs.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We are currently developing a unique portfolio of climate-adapted reforestation projects with public land management agencies, Tribal Nations, and underserved private landowners who do not have access to the necessary funding to reforest severely burned lands in the western United States and other lands suitable for reforestation in other geographies throughout North America.</p>
<p>American Forests recently received a USFS grant to support the participation of federal recognized Tribal Nations, Native Hawaiian organizations and&nbsp;underserved private landowners, in emerging markets for resilient reforestation, or reforestation that is resilient to future climate changes and disturbances as well as future market and economic conditions. We are working to deliver the following outcomes: &nbsp;</p>
<ul>
<li>Provide federally recognized Tribal Nations, Native Hawaiian organizations and underserved private landowners, with the technical and financial resources needed for implementing resilient reforestation projects. &nbsp;</li>
<li>Create new opportunities for Tribal Nations, Native Hawaiian organizations and underserved private landowners, to access new income streams and deploy climate-informed reforestation practices well suited to emerging markets for climate mitigation and resilience.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Engage with and provide technical assistance to Tribal Nations, Native Hawaiian organizations and underserved private landowners, about resilient reforestation and emerging markets for joint climate mitigation and adaptation.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Implement high-integrity resilient reforestation projects yielding biodiversity, water, climate, and cultural benefits.</li>
</ul>
<p>To advance this work, American Forests is looking for a Director of the Reforest America Carbon Program to direct the continued development and implementation of the Reforest America Carbon Program, oversee contract negotiations with project suppliers and buyers, recruit and lead a team of RACP staff to efficiently originate, develop, and market high-quality RACP projects, and represent American Forests in a leadership role in related carbon initiatives including, but not limited to, a nascent U.S. Forest Carbon Coalition effort.&nbsp;</p>
