About ClimateClever 

ClimateClever is Australia’s first community-focussed climate-tech platform that assists households, schools, businesses and communities to measure and reduce their carbon footprint and save money on bills. The innovative Perth and Sydney-based startup initially launched as an Edtech business in 2018, but expanded into Homes in 2020 and launched their ClimateClever App for Businesses in April 2021. Partnering with Local Governments, the ClimateClever Platform provides a unique opportunity to quantify climate action at the local level. Council partners benefit from the aggregated, de-identified/anonymous community climate data, which they use to meet their emission reduction targets and for sustainability reporting within their community. Similarly, we help larger businesses measure and reduce their supply/value chain emissions.  ClimateClever’s vision is to be the most widely adopted platform for climate action and carbon data globally.

About the role

This role will be helping us to grow our national client-base for our new Business App. You will be responsible for identifying and reaching out to new leads and closing sales. You will also have the opportunity to be involved in strategic decision-making, helping to set up new systems and processes to manage the Business App sales pipeline, feed into other aspects of the broader business and help guide the future direction of our growing startup. It is a unique opportunity to join a passionate, diverse and innovative team in a rapidly growing startup based in Perth and Sydney, and play a significant role in its expansion. Through this position, you will be directly helping to address the most pressing and important challenge of this century.
