At Treeconomy, we believe in the regenerative power of nature. We’re on a mission to combat climate change, restore ecosystems, and improve livelihoods.
By embracing remote sensing technology and financial innovation, we are revolutionising the forest carbon offset industry and incentivising landowners to grow and conserve flourishing, climate-positive forests.
We have massive goals and are looking for passionate people to help us achieve them.
We’re a venture-backed earth-tech startup working at the dynamic intersection of technology, ecology, and finance. We are a small but committed team working to bring traceability, transparency, and trust to nature-based carbon removal and ecosystem restoration, harnessing innovation to make a meaningful difference by driving finance toward worthy projects.
We support rural landowners and natural capital investors with project development, financing, measurement, and monitoring services, connecting the highest quality projects to leading corporate carbon credit buyers and project investors via our innovative Sherwood platform.
As Science Lead at Treeconomy your primary objective will be to manage the development & evolution of our scientific capability for monitoring, quantifying & reporting on nature - specifically nature-based carbon stock assessments (forest and semi-forest ecosystems).
You will lead a talented team to improve our technical capabilities for monitoring these ecosystems, combining: remote sensing data, big data analytics, forest science, and statistics to evidence our accuracy to clients, and to iteratively improve our work.
You will work closely with our Platform team to understand client requirements, as well as interacting directly with landowning (or ‘supply’) clients, as needed.
Day to day you will work with the Science team to manage and balance R&D requirements & roadmap plans, as well as manage reporting for external funding as needed.
