PwC's Sustainability and Climate Change practice offers services to clients in the areas of climate change including climate policy, adaptation, international development / green growth, along with wider sustainability-related themes including reporting and assurance, corporate responsibility advisory, health, safety and environmental due diligence, sustainable finance, and responsible supply chain management.
Due to continued strong demand for our Total Impact Measurement & Management (TIMM) services, PwC is looking to expand its current team. Organisations increasingly want to understand and manage their impacts on the world well beyond just their financial results – their environmental, social, economic and fiscal impacts. This is what TIMM allows them to do.
Our established team includes environmental and welfare economists, scientists, engineers, ecologists, GIS specialists, data analysts, corporate strategists and more – working with some of the world’s leading organisations towards an economy that works for everyone.
TIMM has been applied at the product, project, regional and enterprise levels. It is being used by our clients to manage trade-offs in decision making, drive innovation, identify risk and opportunity in their supply chains, communicate with greater simplicity and credibility and, in some cases, to help them transform their business models.
As we expand our team we are seeking a Senior Manager level with significant consulting experience and an extensive senior network.
Our team can offer you a highly stimulating work environment, a breadth of experience rarely matched and a competitive salary and benefits package, as well as the opportunity to make a real difference.
