The Role

• Build the data — Build out the proprietary datasets that serve as the foundation of all CTVC analysis. Includes solution-level metrics and milestones (tech approach, project scale, customers/ partners) that will help investors and corporates identify and evaluate between different climate tech solutions - from battery recycling to direct air capture.
• Ear to the ground — Go deeper than the quantitative to separate hype from reality. You will be responsible for reaching out to and conducting expert interviews - including climate founders, investors, academics, and industry experts.
• Find the signal — From the data and the interviews, put it all together. You will be responsible for producing concise, actionable analysis in the form of market maps, competitive landscapes, key takeaways, and more.
• Talk the talk — Having done the work and become an expert, the Research Analyst will be called on to speak with clients and others to share their insight.

This will be done via automated and manual data collection, as well as interviews and surveys. A plus if you’re comfortable with Airtable, Excel, and/or SQL.
• Equal parts investigator and storyteller — You’re comfortable deep in the data and up at the 10,000 ft view. Go past "what are the facts" to "how should we think about this?". You’ll need to transmit your findings through concise write-ups, standardized data points, and spoken analysis. Clear writing and speaking is a must.
• People-person — A huge part of this role will be working with people. Whether it be through the [hundreds] of research interviews, or working with the team to manage datasets and come up with market insights, you’ll be working with people constantly. Plus, you’ll build a gigantic network.
• Self-starter — You’ll be joining us on the ground floor. You’re adaptive, impact-motivated, bursting with agency, and a team player. You can work independently, yet be collaborative with colleagues.
