A little about us

At Edge Impact, we're here to reimagine sustainability. Our mission is simple and ambitious: to create a world where unsustainable is unthinkable.

We're a team of passionate, collaborative, and courageous people who partner with leading businesses across industries to help deliver positive global impact. We do this through the power of science, strategy, and storytelling, combining evidence, actionable plans, and inspiration to drive real change.

When you join Edge, you'll work alongside smart, kind humans who care deeply about creating a better future for our clients, communities, and the world.

The role

We're looking for a Sustainability Consultant to support our growing team. You'll work on ESG reporting, materiality assessments, and sustainability strategy projects that help clients improve transparency, reduce risk, and create long-term value.

This role is ideal for someone who's detail-oriented, technically capable, and passionate about turning sustainability ambition into action.

What you'll focus on
  • Support the development of sustainability and ESG reports aligned with frameworks such as GRI, ASRS, and TCFD.
  • Contribute to modern slavery and APCO reporting in line with regulatory requirements.
  • Help design and deliver sustainability strategies that align with client objectives and best practice.
  • Conduct data analysis and materiality assessments to identify key ESG issues and opportunities.
  • Assist with stakeholder engagement, workshops, and client presentations.
  • Collaborate across Edge's teams to deliver integrated, high-quality outputs.
What we're looking for
  • Bachelor's degree in sustainability, environmental science, business, or a related field.
  • Experience in sustainability consulting, ESG, or reporting.
  • Strong knowledge of key frameworks (GRI, ASRS, TCFD, SDGs).
  • Excellent analytical, writing, and problem-solving skills.
  • Confident communicator who enjoys working in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
  • Familiarity with sustainability certifications or standards (ISO 14001, B Corp, Climate Active, etc.) is an advantage.

If you meet most — but not all — of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply. We value diverse backgrounds and perspectives that help us think differently and deliver better outcomes for our clients and planet.

Why Join Edge Impact?
  • Purpose-Driven Work – Be part of the change you want to see in the world.
  • Flexible Work Culture – Work when and where you thrive.
  • Career Growth – We invest in your learning and development.
  • B Corp Certified – We walk the talk on sustainability.
