Job Description

๐ŸŒฑ About us

Greenly was founded in 2019 by Alexis, Matthieu and Arnaud with one mission: make carbon management as essential as financial management.

Today, we are a global leader in carbon accounting, proudly B-Corp certified and part of the French Tech 120.

More than 3,500 companies in 20+ countries use Greenly to manage their climate strategy: from carbon assessments and life-cycle analyses to SBTi trajectories and compliance with CSRD and CBAM.

We are now a team of 200+ people from 40+ nationalities, based in Paris, London, Barcelona, and New York. ๐ŸŒŽ

To date, weโ€™ve tracked over 200 million tons of COโ‚‚ through our platform. Our next milestone: 10,000 clients and one billion tons of CO2 under management.

๐ŸŒฑ Our Values

  • Ambition for climate: Minimize GHG emissions, maximize climate impact

  • Deliver with agility: Work in small increments: fail fast, learn fast, win fast

๐ŸŒฑ About the role
