The Nordic Carbon Removal Association and Klimate are jointly looking for a communications and business development associate to work across both organizations in a single full-time position. This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of clim ate policy and commercial carbon removal, covering both the advocacy and market building dimensions of the Nordic CDR ecosystem from a single role.
You will be employed on one contract and will split your time equally between the two organizations, spending roughly two and a half days per week on each. In practice, the two roles are closely complementary: the NCRA focuses on advocacy, events, and membership, while Klimate operates at the commercial end of the CDR market, connecting corporate buyers with high - quality removal projects. Working across both gives you an unusually complete picture of the Nordic CDR landscape and the opportunity to build relationships across the full value chain, from policymakers and project developers to corporate sustainability teams and financial institutions.
You will be based in Copenhagen and work from Klimate's Copenhagen office, with regular travel to Brussels and across the Nordic region for events and stakeholder meetings.
The role reports functionally to the NCRA Secretary General for the NCRA portion of the work and to the relevant manager at Klimate for the Klimate portion, with regular joint check-ins to ensure alignment across both.
Take practical and strategic ownership of the NCRA's and Klimate's events programs. This means designing event formats with clear objectives, identifying and inviting the right participants, managing all logistics from venue to invitations to catering, producing event materials including programmes and briefing notes, and ensuring every event has a communications plan before, during, and after. Events range from intimate closed - door roundtables with EU Member States to the annual general assembly and public-facing conferences. You will also identify the highest -value external events for NCRA and Klimate representation and support participation in those. You will occasionally represent Klimate and the NCRA at select external events, at the organization's discretion.
Identify and approach prospective NCRA members and Klimate clients across Nordic corporates, project developers, financial institutions, and enabling organizations. Manage the outreach process from initial contact through to membership or client conversion, including preparing materials, following up on leads and invitations, and maintaining a structured pipeline of prospects.
Support the NCRA Secretary General in relationship management with existing members, identifying opportunities to deepen engagement and increase member value. Support the the Klimate commercial team in managing existing client relationship, identifying opportunities to deepen engagement and increase client value
Represent the NCRA and Klimate at external events and networking occasions, actively building relationships that translate into new members and clients.
Own the NCRA's LinkedIn presence and draft posts in connection with policy developments, events, and member news. Support the production of the monthly newsletter, press releases, and other external communications. Maintain and develop the NCRA website.
Contribute to and own elements of Klimate’s LinkedIn presence and draft posts in connection with policy developments, events, client case studies, and other relevant news. Support the team in the production of newsletters, client announcements, reports and white papers, and other external communications.
