Biorecro removes carbon from the atmosphere. Our vision is to return the atmosphere to pre-industrial concentrations of carbon dioxide to avoid global climate change.
We have been working since 2007 towards this goal, focusing on BECCS – Bio-Energy with Carbon Capture and Storage. Guided by science, we develop carbon removal projects and pave the way for the emerging market of negative emissions. In the past two years, the interest in carbon removal has increased exponentially and we are now expanding our team to meet this demand.
The Challenge
Biorecro is seeking a Climate Investment Director as a key role in the fundraising and investment team. Together with our CEO and investment team, this position will lead and guide fundraising from Venture Capital, Private Equity, debt and other funding sources.

This position is possible as a full-time, part-time, or advisory role.
