Senior Manager, Restoration Monitoring and Data Insights

<p><strong>About Us</strong></p><p>At Saildrone, we sustainably explore, map, and monitor the oceans to understand, protect, and preserve our world.

Our fleet of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs), powered by renewable wind and solar power, have a minimal carbon footprint and operate without the need for a crewed support vessel. Saildrone works with governments, civil agencies, foundations, universities, and private companies around the globe to drive better information about our oceans and seas—from sailing into the eye of a category 4 hurricane to obtain new data about how storms intensify, collecting new CO2 data in hard-to-reach areas, and counting fish biomass to inform sustainable fishery management, to mapping the ocean floor and reducing illegal fishing and drug trafficking. As a result of our work, Saildrone has been included on Fast Company’s annual list of the World’s Most Innovative Companies, earned an Ocean Awards’ Innovation Award, won Best Tech For Good from the Timmy Awards, and was recognized by Andreessen Horowitz’s American Dynamism 50 list of the Top 50 Companies Kickstarting American Renewal.

<h2>Who you will work closely with</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>Anette Olovborn (Location: Stockholm) and Joost Beunderman (Location: UK): Programme Leads of DM&rsquo;s partnership with Viable Cities</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Alexandra Hansten (Location: Copenhagen): Strategic Designer in the Viable Cities programme</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Gyorgyi Galik: Co-lead of DM&rsquo;s Cities Mission (Location: UK)</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The local teams in the System demonstrator cities in particular, and from time to time also in the 23 cities (<em>kommuner</em>) all committed to becoming climate neutral by 2030.&nbsp;</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>The wider Viable Cities programme management team: based in KTH Stockholm in the Viable Cities office.&nbsp;</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>You will also work closely with DM colleagues working on missions, projects, dark matter layers, deep code innovations across the DM ecosystem, as appropriate and needed - especially given the importance of the system demonstrator idea in other areas of our work.</p>
<h2>How we work</h2>
<p>We're a multi-disciplinary and distributed team based around the globe. What's important to us is using the context and local conditions of projects to grow our knowledge and use it to iterate our knowledge and practice across all of our work. We pride ourselves on learning, experimentation and intuition, and look to provide members of the team ways in which they can grow their own knowledge and practice. We view projects, processes and how we work as an evolving design that you would be part of shaping.</p>
<p><a href="https://darkmatterlabs.org/Jobs">Please check our Jobs page for more information on how we organise</a>.</p>
<h2>Pay</h2>
<p>Our approach to pay is not based on favouring one skill over another or rewarding hierarchical power dynamics. Instead, we recognize that everyone possesses unique and exceptional skills, and we remove the process of valuing and comparing them. This allows us to focus on unleashing those skills in diverse ways based on the specific context. It gives us the freedom to determine, assign, and assess roles based on what is most suitable for each situation, rather than being constrained by predefined roles tied to compensation.</p>
<p>As a result, our pay is designed not to reward people for tasks done, but to cover living costs so that we are freed to create what we believe is needed in the world.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our current base pay for everyone on the team is: Formula = (((Years experience + 23) (+ 8.82 for freelancers)) *1000) = gross pro rata pay in GBP.</p>
<p>Years experience includes all experience after school completion age (18) - inc work, education, unpaid work (care, volunteering, etc).</p>
<p>We recognise that no formula that tries to do this can fully account for the unique contexts of every person. Therefore we also have a rebalancing process in place to accommodate individual circumstances.</p>
<p>We have recently put in place a range of benefits support across the team, including coaching, learning funds, sabbatical and secondment support, learning funds, workspace funds and more. These were set collectively by the team and vary according to statutory provisions in different geographies - we&rsquo;ll be happy to confirm the relevant approach for your geography and contract type.</p>
<p>Our holiday policy is a minimum of 28 days/year pro-rata, but we encourage you to take all of the time that you need to properly rest.</p>
