Job Description
Are you ready to lead in sustainability and drive meaningful change? We have the vision to lead in sustainability and have recently been named the most sustainable company in Sweden by Time Magazine. This challenges us every day, and also holds us accountable. In the role as Climate and Environmental Manager you will lead our efforts to reach net-zero by 2035, and maintain a systematic way of working with environmental issues, which is crucial to our success.
About the job
In the role as Climate and Environmental Manager you will manage our efforts to rapidly reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in line with our ambitious science-based targets and drive environmental improvement efforts throughout the organization. The role includes a wide variety of assignments including implementing our climate transition plan, driving emissions reduction in scope 1, 2 and 3, carbon accounting, and maintaining our Environmental Management Systems. You will work closely with our Head of Sustainability, Erik, ensuring that every day brings new and impactful change — from operational tasks to presenting strategies to our management team.
Responsibilities include:
- Climate transition plan: lead initiatives to meet our net-zero target by 2035, continuously updating our plan based on the latest climate science.
- Environmental Management System: drive implementation, project management and continuous improvements
- Sustainability reporting: data collection, climate calculations, analysis and project management of climate and environmental data
- ESG ratings: collect and analyse data, and driving projects to improve Tele2’s results in climate and environment ratings
- Communication: provide expertise for internal and external communication related to Tele2’s climate performance
We are a small team with a big responsibility, so we expect that you are prepared to roll-up your sleeves and dig in where necessary when the Sustainability function faces demanding tasks – just like your colleagues will be there to support you when you need it

- strong project management skills
- have proficiency in Excel for calculations and Powerpoint for professional presentations
- fluency in English and Swedish, both written and spoken
