About the Role

The Company is in search of an Executive Director to lead its next chapter. The successful candidate will be at the forefront of one of the most ambitious carbon markets in the world, with a focus on practical, evidence-based policy that is supported by a diverse range of stakeholders. This role is pivotal in advancing clean energy solutions that benefit the economy, public health, and the environment. The Executive Director will be responsible for revenue generation, strategic direction, and team leadership, and must be a confident, entrepreneurial leader with a track record of building revenue, relationships, and high-performing teams. The position requires a leader with a strong background in policy advocacy, government affairs, or a related field, and the ability to establish credibility on complex climate and energy issues. The ideal candidate for the Executive Director position at the company will have a proven ability to generate revenue and a network of relevant relationships. Business acumen, entrepreneurial leadership, and a diplomatic, collaborative leadership style are essential. While prior Executive Director experience is not mandatory, the role demands a leader who is adept at turning opportunity into results and is comfortable in both business and policy settings. The Executive Director will work closely with the Board of Directors, lead a talented team, and ensure the organization's advocacy is effective and aligned with its mission. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a nonpartisan, data-driven organization that is trusted by a wide range of stakeholders and is making a significant impact in the field of clean energy and climate policy.
