About the Role
We're looking for an ESG/Sustainability Associate to join our
sustainability advisory practice, supporting clients across Qatar and the GCC
in building GHG inventories and preparing sustainability reports aligned with
GRI Standards and IFRS S1/S2. This is a hands-on, client-facing role for
someone who wants to build deep technical expertise in carbon accounting and
sustainability disclosure.
Key Responsibilities
• Build
GHG Protocol-compliant emissions inventories for clients — Scope 1, Scope 2
(location- and market-based), and Scope 3 screening across all 15 categories —
using activity data (fuel, electricity, fleet, refrigerants, purchased goods,
etc.) and appropriate emission factors.
• Draft
sustainability and ESG reports aligned with GRI Standards, including narrative
content, data tables, and GRI content indices, with an eye toward IFRS S1/S2
and QFMA/QSE disclosure expectations.
• Support
IFRS S1/S2 readiness work — gap assessments against governance, strategy, risk
management, and metrics & targets requirements.
• Prepare
methodology memos and supporting workpapers that are assurance-ready (built to
withstand third-party verification under ISAE/ISSA standards).
• Liaise
directly with client teams to collect activity data, resolve data gaps, and
explain GHG/reporting methodology in plain terms.
• Support
materiality assessments and stakeholder engagement processes that feed into
report scoping.
• Stay
current on evolving GRI, ISSB (IFRS S1/S2), and Qatar-specific (QFMA/QSE/QCB)
sustainability disclosure requirements.
• Contribute
to internal knowledge-sharing and templates/tools that improve the team's
delivery efficiency.
Requirements
• 2–5
years of relevant experience in sustainability/ESG consulting, carbon
accounting, corporate sustainability, or a related advisory field.
• Bachelor's
degree in a relevant field (engineering, environmental science, sustainability,
business, or similar).
• Relevant
certifications a plus: IFRS S1/S2 Certification, GHG/carbon accounting
certification, GRI certification, or similar.
• Working
familiarity with GRI Standards, GHG Protocol (Scope 1/2/3 accounting), and IFRS
S1/S2 (or equivalent ISSB/TCFD-aligned frameworks).
• Strong
Excel skills; comfort building formula-driven, auditable emissions models.
• Ability
to manage multiple client engagements and deadlines with attention to detail.
• Strong
written English; Arabic a plus for bilingual reporting work.
