Agora Energiewende
An important part of the fight against climate change is the imperative to transition to climate-neutral industrial production. Globally, manufacturing activities contribute around 27% of the world’s annual greenhouse gas emissions, of which around three quarters comes from energy-intensive industries, such as steel, cement, chemicals, ceramics, glass, pulp and paper, etc.
With the launch of the “European Green Deal” in 2020, the EU began to put in place a major package of new legislation to kick-start the transition to climate-neutral and circular industrial production. Nevertheless, much remains to be done. The next European legislative period, starting in 2024, will be a crucial moment to strengthen this policy framework.
As an independent, climate policy think tank, Agora has been pursuing the goal of achieving a climate-neutral economy since 2012. With around 150 employees at four locations worldwide, including offices in Brussels, Berlin, Bangkok and Beijing, we combine research, dialogue and public relations in our daily work to support policy makers and stakeholders with the task of governing the transition. In doing so, we work closely with partners in numerous countries and we act independently and free of economic or party-political interests.
To support our European work and as part of our climate-neutral industry programme we are seeking a
Project Manager, Industrial climate and circularity policy, Europe (f/m/d)
Brussels-based with some travel to other European capitals, full-time
The successful candidate will support Agora’s work which aims to inform the next European Commission’s work plan for industry decarbonisation (2024-2028).
They would work on policy development to shift EU industry from natural gas to electricity for the production of industrial heat and improving European biomass strategy to prioritise it to no regrets uses. Additional work topics could include EU CCS policy, Carbon Removals markets, circular economy, and innovation funding instruments for low carbon and circular breakthrough technologies.
