Summary
Enveritas is looking for exceptional talent to join our global team and help manage our operations in Latin America.
Background
Consumers are increasingly asking if the brands they trust are “sustainable” – that is, produced under acceptable social, economic and environmental practices. Companies have responded by setting targets for becoming “100% sustainable”. However, traditional approaches for verifying sustainability face challenges reaching farmers that are too small, too remote, or informally organized. Enveritas (www.enveritas.org) is building solutions for smallholder coffee farmers that are currently beyond the reach of existing sustainability certification or verification approaches. We have developed a rigorous, scalable and transparent method of verification that works in this “underserved space.” This verification is the backbone of our Responsible Sourcing platform that helps companies meet their sustainability targets by investing in the areas that need it most.
Enveritas is a non-profit organization founded in 2016 and is headquartered in New York. Enveritas combines the rigurosity of its systems and processes with an intense effort to collect credible data from the field, accompanied by inspiring and unique stories (insights) that permit our clients to work together with stakeholders to improve the coffee grower’s livelihood. Our Latin American operations cover Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil and Bolivia.
The Role
Your role will be to assist Enveritas in managing verification operations in Latin America. Specifically, you will:
Surface the trends and insights that will help coffee roasters make data driven decisions about how they strengthen their supply chains
Manage the data quality control process of several of the Latin American coffee origins. This includes the supervision of one or more resources.
Design, test, and scale new tools and SOPs to be used by Enveritas country teams in Latin America and throughout the world
Prepare reports for and engage with industry stakeholders and supply chain actors to help identify priority sustainability issues for coffee producing communities
Support expansion to new coffee origins, in collaboration with operations management team
Lead and support special analysis projects on a wide range of sustainability topics, such as costs of production, greenhouse gas emissions, and the impact of Covid-19 on coffee farmers in the region
Work on new initiatives in collaboration with members of the Enveritas global team, which includes program & field operations managers, data scientists, product managers, software engineers, agronomy and coffee industry experts, and multi-generational coffee farmers
Gain direct experience and knowledge of coffee production, through visits to coffee farming communities and meetings with industry stakeholders and local coffee organizations
Enveritas will invest heavily in your growth and success. We recognize that we will need to attract and retain exceptional talent in order to fulfill our vision of reaching 100% of the world’s coffee farmers across 30+ countries. You will have the backing of a global team with deep experience in coffee sustainability and technology to help you reach your goals. We offer a fun, open, flat, and agile work culture that mitigates the communication challenges posed by being a global organization.
Qualifications
3+ years’ relevant work experience in consulting, business, finance, quantitative research, data analysis, the coffee sector, international development, or sustainable agriculture
Availability for regular travels to multiple countries in Latin America
Fluency in English, Spanish and Portuguese (all required)
Clear track record of working in a fast-paced, multicultural team environment
Excellent communication and analytical skills; flexible problem-solving attitude
High level of rigor and attention to detail
A driving desire to alleviate poverty and make the world a better place
Strong worth ethic and professionalism, particularly when doing independent and remote work
Bachelor’s degree and excellent academic record, related to development studies, economics, business, statistics, plant science, forestry, or other relevant discipline with relevant professional experience
Strong analytical competencies, with experience in navigating through large datasets and derive relevant insights with the use of data exploration or analysis techniques
Strong computer skills, including proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google Docs applications, familiarity with quantitative data collection software/platforms; knowledge of Python or other programming languages beneficial, but not required
Preferably based in Brazil, or anywhere else in South America
