Product Manager: Natural Climate Solutions

This is us

At Land Life, our ambition is not just to create positive change, but to inspire it. We're on a mission to restore our planet's 2 billion hectares of degraded land, by planting the right trees, at the right time and in the right place, leveraging technology every step of the way and unlocking carbon and other new markets to fund this work. Our team is global, our impact is significant; last year we planted 3.5 million trees worldwide and we were recognised as the Uplink Top Innovator at the 2024 World Economic Forum. Now we're looking for an impact-driven Product Manager with carbon removal certification expertise and experience to join our Product Team.

This is the role

Our Product Team translates our impact in the field into compelling offerings for our customers. As a Product Manager, you’ll play a crucial role in safeguarding and enhancing the commercial value of Land Life's carbon removal product. This entails both making sure that Land Life projects globally meet Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) requirements as well as researching and ultimately spearheading our diversification of carbon removal certification standards. Think along the lines of Gold Standard (GS), Australia Carbon Credits Unity Scheme (ACCUs) or even emerging ones like the EU Carbon Removal Certification Framework (CRCF). As an important part of the rule you will also improve current internal procedures of certification and implement programs of internal training in our products. Y

We’ll be looking to you to:

• Be the go-to expert on all (VCS) certification-related subjects, making sure carbon Standards, product requirements & working knowledge are up-to-date and applied throughout the organization.

• Help us track and respond to relevant carbon standards’ latest developments and (co-)craft the appropriate perspectives, responses, processes or actions for Land Life.

• Assess and approve project pipelines to ensure compliance with internal and relevant standard criteria.

• Ensure all documents, audits, registrations, and communications are duly filed, initiated, completed on time for Land Life’s global plantings under the right standards.

• Optimize internal procedures in order to ensure the quality of Land Life’s products and services as well as making sure the needed knowledge is kept and shared among the company’s activities.

Be prepared to have ‘do right by nature’ as your underlying product. This means your work will be highly multidisciplinary and requires you to master and integrate information from operational, financial, scientific, and regulatory perspectives.
