About CarbonChain
The fight against Climate Change is evolving rapidly. Climate tech is changing. The first wave was reporting. The next is treating carbon the way companies treat money: as a way to decide what to buy, who to sell to, and which incentives to claim.
Around the world, carbon is becoming a condition of trade. Border taxes, free allocations, green premiums, cheaper capital. It looks a lot like the post-war rebuild: governments put capital and tax incentives on the table, and the companies that could keep the books moved first. The missing piece then was bookkeeping. The missing piece now is the same, carbon accounting.
CarbonChain is that bookkeeping. We turn messy, real-world supply-chain data into numbers a trader, a sustainability lead, or a CFO will actually use.
We want people who are agents of change, who feel the impact of climate change and know there is no way around it to create a better future for every being.
People who know the customer is the truth of how a company thrives. People who treat data as the fuel for how fast society can change. People who use AI to accelerate the cause for good by working through an AI lens first to automate repetitive tasks and analyse data. Finally, people who enjoy working with people.
Our Product
We help the world's largest commodity producers and traders measure and cut emissions, with verified primary data where we can get it and defensible defaults where we cannot. The platform turns operational and supplier files into decision-grade carbon and compliance insight: sourcing, CBAM, product and corporate footprints, reporting customers and regulators will stand behind.
We organise carbon accounting around the user in four contexts at once:
The data we hold is only useful if it makes all four of those jobs easier.
Head of Product
About the Role
We’re looking for a Head of Product to own and shape the product function at CarbonChain. Working closely with our founders and senior leadership, you’ll set the product strategy and roadmap, decide what we build and why, and build a product team and culture that consistently delivers real value to our customers.
You’ll sit at the heart of the business alongside Customer Success, Sales, Engineering, and our Carbon Advisory Team. Your job is to balance internal insight with knowledge gathered directly from customers and the wider market to work out which customer problems are worth solving and how, combining those inputs with product data and your own discovery, and turn that into a clear, evidence-based roadmap that balances quick wins that unblock customers today against the bigger bets that will set us apart tomorrow.
This role calls for an outstanding product leader who can get to grips with a complex domain quickly. You will need to think deeply about the customer value proposition in a decarbonising world; and the 10 year + view of ESG software in a volatile political horizon. Our customers are some of the world’s largest commodities producers and traders, facing fast-moving regulation and growing pressure for credible emissions reporting. You’ll need to understand their world deeply, anticipate where it’s heading, and make sure CarbonChain is always one step ahead. Much of the value customers get today comes from our expert carbon advisory service combined with product capabilities. You’ll need to think about how product intelligence can scale on the foundations of rapidly advancing AI models.
