A day in the life
You start the morning reviewing progress dashboards for active decarbonization projects, flagging risks, and syncing with internal stakeholders to keep initiatives on track. By midday, you're deep in a cross-functional working group, aligning teams on a supplier carbon data collection effort or pressure-testing a new roadmap for lower-carbon transportation solutions. The afternoon might bring a conversation with a product supplier learning firsthand about the realities of food production, from agricultural inputs to cold chain logistics and translating those insights into an actionable Scope 3 decarbonization project scope that works for both sides. Later, you're rolling up your sleeves with a project team to troubleshoot a stalled initiative, cutting through ambiguity and coordinating across functions to get execution back on track.

No two days look exactly the same, but your work is always anchored in one mission: driving meaningful, measurable progress toward a lower-carbon future for WWGS.
