Company Description

CORE Markets is a markets, technology and climate solutions partner, supporting businesses on the path to net zero. We provide commercial, financial and capital advisory services focused on the energy transition and net zero, and provide corporate and institutional brokerage across energy, carbon and environmental markets. These services are underpinned by a proprietary software platform. CORE Markets is headquartered in Melbourne, with a second office in Sydney.

Role Description

We are seeking a full-time Associate Director or Director, focused on Australia's carbon sector (demand and supply segments), with a commercial advisory background. Based in our Sydney or Melbourne office, you will lead a 3-4 person project team with the following team responsibilities:

  • providing advice on project commercialisation to carbon project developers, covering identification of ACCU buyers, assessment of value and risks across investment approaches and interaction with capital raising, and running competitive processes to buy or sell ACCUs including obtaining, shortlisting and then recommending offtake buy / sell offers

You will also:

  • Lead on the provision of carbon sector expertise into our capital advisory business, collaborating with that team as a subject matter expert
  • Originate, sell and grow a pipeline of client projects in carbon with a focus on commercial advisory

Your Client account & Client project origination will be a combination of:

  • leveraging pre-existing CORE Markets offerings (e.g., our proprietary ACCU price forecast model)
  • developing new advisory offerings in collaboration with others
  • leading advisory-based content creation for our software platform, and
  • supporting the cross-sell of our platform to advisory clients, bundling our platform offerings with advisory offerings where appropriate.

You will also collaborate with our Markets team to cross-sell advisory services to our Markets clients. This includes existing environmental and carbon-related products (e.g. ACCUs & SMCs) and new products (e.g. REGOs).

Finally, you will lead CORE Markets' expansion into policy and regulatory advisory in the carbon sector, in Australia and internationally.

Qualifications

  • 10+ years' relevant experience in Australia's Carbon sector, working with and for carbon project developers on project commercialisation, and/or Safeguards Mechanism entities and other buyers of ACCUs
  • Experience of international carbon markets (especially Asian) is strongly desired but not essential
  • Strong project management and people leadership skills
  • Demonstrated ability (at Director level) or willingness (at Associate Director-level) to originate and sell work of $1.5m+ p.a., this experience having been gained in a consulting environment
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities
  • Ability to communicate effectively (verbal and written) with diverse stakeholders, and strong interpersonal skills

Pay range and compensation package

This role represents an outstanding opportunity to work in a fast-paced environment. It would suit a candidate seeking to further their career in commercialising Carbon projects in Australia, as well as helping ACCU buyers transact and raise capital.

The successful candidate will receive a highly competitive package.
