About Watershed

Watershed is the enterprise sustainability platform. Companies like Airbnb, Carlyle Group, FedEx, Visa, and Dr. Martens use Watershed to manage climate and ESG data, produce audit-ready metrics for voluntary and regulatory reporting including CSRD, and drive real decarbonization. We are looking for team members who love product-building, want to work hard at a mission-oriented startup, and will collaborate with us in shaping the culture of a growing team.

We have offices in San Francisco, New York, London, Paris, Berlin, Sydney, Mexico City, and remote team members across the US and Europe. We hope that you'll be interested in joining us!

The role

We are looking for a customer-focused and analytically-minded individual to be a member of our Sydney office on the Sustainability Data Advisory team.

In this role, you’ll advise the world's top companies to accelerate their sustainability programs. You'll work directly with customers as a trusted advisor, leading measurement sessions and delivering advisory services that unlock the full value of our platform — enabling our customers to gain clear, reliable insights into their sustainability impact and achieve their sustainability goals.

This is a unique opportunity to be the first member of the Sustainability Data Advisory team in the Asia-Pacific region. As the first in the region, you’ll play a critical role in both developing strategies for success with our growing customer base and sharing insights on the customer and regulatory landscape with the rest of our global Sustainability Advisory & Services team.


You will:

  • Advise sustainability teams at many of the world’s top companies. You’ll work directly with customers on how to measure actionable carbon and non-carbon footprints to reach sustainability goals and enable real reductions, ranging from scoping new measurements to in-depth methodology comparisons between footprints.

  • Deliver services that accelerate customer success, helping customers set up their measurements to meet sustainability goals, serving as a trusted partner in emissions verifications, leading customers in the data ingestion support process, and providing specialized advisory to optimize their data and methodologies. You'll ensure customers unlock maximum value from Watershed's platform faster and more effectively than they could on their own.

  • Act as the first member of the Sustainability Data Advisory team in the region, developing a robust understanding of the regulatory and customer landscape and acting as a ‘voice of the customer’ by communicating advisory and services needs within the region back to our central team.

  • Collaborate with science, engineering, and product teams to pioneer innovative measurement solutions and expand Watershed's sustainability intelligence layer.

You might be a fit if you:

  • Have 4-6 years of experience in a consulting, solutions-engineering, or other customer-facing role. You are excited to work directly with customers to help them set the foundation for world-class sustainability programs.

  • Have experience in sustainability-related fields, greenhouse gas accounting and/or ESG reporting.

  • Are an excellent verbal and written communicator. You can communicate complex topics to technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Are organized, systematic, and efficient. You are a fast learner who thrives in a high-volume environment.

  • Are a self-starter. You are independent, self-motivated, and operate well within ambiguity.

  • Think clearly about complex problems, and are comfortable using and speaking to data. You are meticulous and detail-obsessed.

  • Are passionate about solving climate change and excited to contribute to doing so at a fast-paced startup.

This position is required to be in person in our Sydney office 4 days per week.

Must be willing to work from an office 4 days per week (except for remote roles)

Watershed has hub offices in San Francisco, New York, London, and Mexico City and satellite offices in Sydney, Paris, and Berlin. Where we have offices, employees are expected to be in office for 4 days per week. Certain jobs are open to being remote and will be specifically noted on the jobs page and in the job description if so.

What’s the interview process like?

It starts the same for every candidate: getting to know the team members through 1 to 2 conversations about Watershed, your experience, and your interests. Next steps can vary by role, but usual next steps are a skill or experience interview (e.g. a coding interview for an engineer, a portfolio review for a designer, deeper experience call for other roles) which leads to a virtual or in person interview panel. We prioritize transparency and lack of surprise throughout the process.

What if I need accommodations for my interview?

At Watershed, we are dedicated to ensuring an inclusive recruitment process. We provide reasonable accommodations for candidates with disabilities, long-term conditions, mental health needs, religious observances, neurodivergence, or pregnancy-related support requirements. If you need assistance during your process, please contact your recruiter.
