Data-nerdy sustainability professional

Salacia’s mission is to put sustainability on an equal footing with finance. We take ESG reporting to the next level by simplifying impact tracking through live data connections, automized calculations, and real-time results, so that companies and investors get the best possible insights to take action.

Do you have what it takes to become our newest team member? Get in touch!

Do you see the ways that we need our reefs just like our trees along the shore? And if it knows to help, half of what we breathe in for ourselves, is out of sight and on the ocean floor. Oh, how much is left to learn

– Ziggy Alberts

What you will be doing

You will work directly with our clients, your team members and with our data engineers and developers to successfully onboard clients and integrate their data into our solution.

You will also be responsible for digging into and making sense of all the quantitative data necessary to measure the sustainability impacts of our clients.

In short, you will make our clients and the planet happy!

Through your direct contact with our clients and your data skills, you will also be able to innovate, design and implement new ways to improve and scale up our product and service. For example, this can mean creating new product features such as forecasting, scenario modelling, quality assurance checks, exporting functions.

And finally, you will be an integral member of our highly motivated, dynamic and fun team!
