We are looking for a Corporate Sustainability Educator to join our small, dedicated team (fully remote, with a Berlin co-working space) full-time (36 hours per week).

At the LFCA Academy we train sustainability practitioners in companies to drive internal transformation. We do this through immersive, practical peer-learning formats that address their specific corporate sustainability challenges.

Your responsibilities:

Course Design & Content Development (~40%)
– Act as an in-house expert on sustainability topics, covering both high-level (e.g., strategy development, materiality assessment, reporting) and topic-specific (e.g., climate transition planning, DEI, digital sustainability) issues
– Collaborate on the design of short and long educational formats, including courses, learning sessions, and custom workshops
– Create clear and practical teaching materials such as slides, templates, and toolkits

Delivery & Facilitation (~30%)
– Deliver engaging and interactive content in live online workshops
– Answer participant questions across various channels, both live and asynchronous
– Help facilitate breakout rooms and group exercises, encouraging peer-to-peer learning

Expert Community Engagement (~15%)
– Leverage your network to source experts who can enhance our educational offerings
– Conduct screening calls and handle partnership negotiations
– Build and maintain relationships with individual experts and other organizational partners

Strategy Development (~15%):
– Actively contribute to collaboratively shaping the vision & strategic direction of LFCA
– Stay current with industry trends and regulatory changes affecting corporate sustainability to guide our content strategy

Your Profile

Qualifications:
– 5+ years of experience in corporate sustainability, either in-house or as a consultant
– Degree in sustainability management, environmental science, or a related field
– Good understanding of the challenges practitioners face in various industries, especially in digital technologies and business services
– Broad network within the sustainability expert community
– Experience in designing educational content and delivering live training sessions, preferably in a virtual format
– Familiarity with digital content delivery tools & formats
– Articulate written and verbal communication skills in English
– science-based, intersectional approach to sustainability with an ambitious and transformative vision beyond business-as-usual

We particularly invite applications from women, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, people from working-class backgrounds and/or from the Global South, and members of other marginalised communities.

We know that long lists of criteria can be daunting and that some candidates will not apply for a role unless they feel they are 100% qualified. If you feel you meet at least some of the essential criteria, we still encourage you to apply.

Why us?
– Fair compensation ranging from €54,000 to €74,000, depending on experience
– 36-hour working week as standard, plus 25 days of paid leave
– Opportunity to make a difference by aiding thousands of companies worldwide on their path to science-based sustainability
