ABOUT THE GREAT PLAINS INSTITUTE
A nonpartisan, nonprofit organization, the Great Plains Institute (GPI) is accelerating the transition to net-zero carbon emissions for the benefit of people, the economy, and the environment. Increased demand for GPI&rsquo;s unique blend of energy expertise and consensus-derived solutions has driven organizational and programmatic growth. With headquarters in Minnesota, GPI&rsquo;s operations are national in scope while retaining a core competency in the Midcontinent region. GPI is powered by more than 50 professionals and is supported by some of the nation&rsquo;s most respected philanthropies.&nbsp;
The following values inform the way we work both inside and outside of GPI. It is important to us to be trusted, inclusive, equitable, pragmatic, and transformative:

&nbsp;
ENERGY SYSTEMS PROGRAM AREA
The Energy Systems program area is focused on decarbonizing the economy by enabling collaboration and problem solving among electric and natural gas utilities and market operators, regulators, environmental advocates, consumer advocates, state and local governments, businesses, and other key stakeholders.
We work with groups of state governor&rsquo;s offices and environmental and energy regulators to develop and implement decarbonization plans; within the Midcontinent Independent Systems Operator stakeholder process on market rules and the transmission build-out; with states, utilities, and other interests to align utility business models with an affordable, reliable, and net-zero greenhouse gas energy system; with states, local governments, and other key actors to bring down the implementation costs of net-zero greenhouse gas technologies and increase consumer demand for net-zero greenhouse gas resources.
We foster collaboration and problem solving through complex stakeholder engagement processes. These often involve groups of 20-100 stakeholders that meet regularly over several months to develop a shared understanding of energy and climate policy and technology issues, discuss varying perspectives on those issues, and collaborate to identify actions to address those issues.
Our team has a fast-paced entrepreneurial culture in which people enjoy both great freedom and great responsibility. People who thrive in this culture take personal responsibility for seeing what needs doing and getting it done. They are self-starters, problem-solvers, and quick to help others. They work hard because they believe in the mission and get to spend most of their time at the intersection of what they love to do and are good at. It&rsquo;s a working environment in which performance is judged more on results than on time spent in a chair. We are committed to building a diverse staff and strongly encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply. We aspire to make this the best job anyone has ever had.

<h3>About Us: </h3>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. <h3>Why veritree?</h3>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. 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. <h3>About The Role: </h3>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. 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. 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. You will be expected to interface with internal and external stakeholders to accomplish your objectives and must be able to operate independently and effectively within ambiguity. The ideal candidate will be someone who has built carbon programs in the past, is an expert communicator, and gets energy from creating something new.This is a hybrid role based in Vancouver, Canada and some travelling may be required. <h3>What will you be doing? </h3>Carbon Product Development &amp; Go-to-Market<ul><li>You will interface with existing customers to understand their corporate needs and to explore how veritree can continue to develop and offer a compelling product</li></ul><ul> <li>You will work with legal counsel to structure long-term deals and limit risk to all parties involved</li> <li>You will identify financing opportunities to create coalitions to fund large-scale projects</li> <li>You will support in marketing and business development efforts</li> <li>You will intimately understand the veritree technology and the market for dMRV solutions and consider how veritree can evolve our own product or integrate other solutions</li> <li>You will develop plans for how veritree’s technology can help us deliver a cost-effective carbon product more efficiently to our customers</li> <li>You will build relationships with existing project developers and explore partnership opportunities through coalition building and technology deployment</li> </ul>Project Origination<ul> <li>You will lead the strategy and development of veritree’s project origination work both domestically and internationally, working closely with developers, governments, technical experts, and landowners to bring world-class projects to fruition</li> <li>You will determine what standards projects should be managed to based on project type, implementation considerations, and market pricing opportunities</li> <li>You will work with government and landowners to develop emission benefits sharing strategies</li> <li>You will build a team to oversee and coordinate project implementation</li> <li>You will liaise and collaborate with all project stakeholders to drive the project objectives</li> <li>You will review project related documentations, including project idea notes, feasibility studies, design documents, monitoring reports, etc.</li> <li>You will actively understands climate change risks faced by long-term restoration projects (ie. fire and long-term permanence)</li> <li>You must be able to collaborate with project stakeholders to design projects that utilize best available science to ensure restoration is resilient to current and future climate change impacts.</li> <li>You must be comfortable conducting due diligence on potential investors and project partners (ie.
