**Why Join Us**

This is an opportunity to contribute to a highly respected and impactful multi-sector member organisation, working to support global climate change action and cooperation.

**Summary**

The Programme Manager for Voluntary Carbon Markets will support IETA’s work on the Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM). The Integrity Council is supported by a Secretariat made up of four leading climate, finance, and standards NGOs: the Green Finance Institute, the British Standards Institution (BSI), the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), and the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions (C2ES).

IETA leads on market formation to ensure the Integrity Council is successful in establishing and enforcing the Core Carbon Principles (CCPs) as the definitive quality threshold standard for carbon credits, securing widespread market and stakeholder support for this, and in providing oversight over standard-setting programs and the development of robust market infrastructure.

IETA also provides secretariat support to the ICVCM Standards Oversight Committee and to develop multi-stakeholder work programmes. The Programme Manager will work closely with the Director for Voluntary Carbon Market Formation to provide secretariat support, develop and execute the market formation strategy and ensure multi-stakeholder engagement in forthcoming work programmes.

- Support the market formation committee with content research and meeting preparation;
- Support set-up and ongoing outreach for multi-stakeholder working groups;
- Coordinate with the four organisations of the Executive Secretariat;
- Connect with key market players to provide appropriate data infrastructure, mobilise demand and supply for CCP credits;
- Maintain connection with IETA’s internal legal and digital and data working groups.

**Necessary Skills and Qualifications**
- A degree in either environmental management, international relations, economics, finance, or in a related field;
- 4-5 years work experience in a relevant organisation;
- Familiarity and previous work experience with climate policy and/or carbon markets;
- Previous work experience in the private sector, environmental NGO and/or in member associations;

- Ability to learn quickly in a fast-paced environment;
- Strong interpersonal and excellent verbal and written communication skills;

**About IETA**

**About The Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM)**

The Integrity Council is an independent governance body for the voluntary carbon market. Its purpose is to ensure the voluntary carbon market accelerates a just transition to 1.5ºC.

It does this by setting and enforcing definitive global threshold standards, drawing on the best science and expertise available, so high-quality carbon credits channel finance towards genuine and additional greenhouse gas reductions and removals that go above and beyond what can otherwise be achieved, and contribute to climate resilient development.

Its mandate has three parts:
First to establish, host, and curate a set of Core Carbon Principles (CCPs), which will set new threshold standards for high-quality carbon credits and define which carbon-crediting programs and methodology types are CCP-eligible.

Second, to provide governance and oversight over carbon-crediting programs on adherence to CCPs as well as on market infrastructure and participant eligibility.

Third to help to coordinate and manage interlinkages between individual bodies; define a roadmap for the responsible growth of the Voluntary Carbon Market.
