Compensation: €50,000 – €70,000 annual gross salary (commensurate with qualifications and experience)

About The Role

Are you eager to harness cutting-edge software applications to actively accelerate real-world corporate decarbonization? Established in Berlin, our Climate Tech enterprise equips corporate sustainability divisions with automated workflow solutions, comprehensive CSRD compliance capabilities, and actionable net-zero transition roadmaps. We achieve this by pairing an advanced AI co-pilot with expert human consulting.

We are actively looking for an ambitious, highly proactive Sustainability Consultant (m/f/d) to expand our advisory practice. In this strategic client-facing role, you will take full ownership of corporate accounts, validate AI-generated carbon accounting data, and continuously refine our internal delivery frameworks to support rapid operational scaling.

Key Responsibilities

End-to-End Advisory Management

  • Direct comprehensive enterprise client projects focusing on Corporate Carbon Footprints (CCF), Product Carbon Footprints (PCF), and strategic climate neutrality roadmaps, leveraging our proprietary software tools.


Carbon Accounting & Data Audit

  • Audit client operational inputs and primary data to build precise CCF and PCF profiles, carefully validating AI-assisted software calculations and emission factor databases.


Process Standardization

  • Analyze, refine, and re-engineer current consulting workflows to eliminate operational bottlenecks, streamline service delivery, and expand overall team capacity.


Customer Success & Education

  • Serve as the primary, trusted advisor for client inquiries while actively developing self-service onboarding resources, user guides, and structured knowledge bases.


Executive Presentations

  • Structure and present clear, high-impact technical reports, decarbonization roadmaps, and strategic debriefs directly to executive stakeholders and decision-makers.


Cross-Functional Feedback Loop

  • Consolidate frontline client feedback, user pain points, and technical requirements into structured feature requests to inform our product engineering roadmap.


Candidate Profile

Required Skills

  • Language Proficiency: C2 native or bilingual German fluency (strictly required for client-facing consultations) paired with C1/C2 professional English proficiency.
  • Field Experience: A minimum of 2 years of practical experience within sustainability consulting or internal corporate sustainability departments, with a direct focus on CCF, PCF, or Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodologies.
  • Practical Execution: Hands-on experience calculating and constructing carbon accounting metrics (beyond high-level strategy or purely academic coursework).
  • Pragmatic Mindset: A pragmatic, execution-focused working style capable of managing complex client deliverables while building automated, scalable processes.
  • Project Delivery: Exceptional project management skills paired with a structured, transparent, and articulate communication approach.


Desirable Attributes

  • Prior exposure to mid-market enterprise accounts (Mittelstand) or large multinational corporate structures.
  • Familiarity with Climate Tech environments, SaaS platforms, or specific retail, consumer goods, and food industry sustainability frameworks.
  • Proven background authoring customer onboarding guides, building internal knowledge repositories, or utilizing workflow automation tools.


Compensation & Benefits

Purposeful Impact

  • Work directly with leading enterprise organizations to help them achieve meaningful sustainability targets and accelerate genuine decarbonization.


Innovative Tech Stack

  • Stand at the absolute forefront of applied AI innovation within the rapidly growing Climate Tech and ESG software ecosystem.


High Ownership

  • Enjoy extensive autonomy to design consulting methodologies, restructure internal documentation, and optimize client engagement strategies.


Professional Growth

  • Benefit from clear progression pathways and rapid career advancement opportunities as our advisory organization expands.


Maximum Flexibility

  • Enjoy complete location flexibility to work 100% remotely from anywhere within Germany, alongside adaptable working hours, 28 paid vacation days, and an outcome-oriented workplace culture.


Competitive Remuneration

  • Attractive annual gross compensation between €50,000 and €70,000, complemented by flexible corporate perks and employee benefits.
