Climate & Natural Capital
Nature-based solutions are central to global decarbonisation.
Brightsmith builds the cross-functional teams that enable credible, science-led progress across climate strategy and natural capital. From voluntary carbon markets and nature-based solutions to carbon accounting and resource resilience, we connect purpose-driven organisations with the leadership needed to navigate complexity and deliver measurable impact.
As nature and climate move to the top of boardroom agendas, we partner with pioneers on both the project and platform side. Whether you're scaling credit portfolios, building digital MRV systems, or integrating biodiversity into corporate strategy, we design tailored hiring solutions that align with your goals, stakeholders, and values.

Voluntary Carbon Market
Voluntary carbon markets are rapidly maturing as demand for high-quality credits aligns with net-zero targets. Stricter scrutiny on transparency, additionality, and permanence has shifted talent priorities; firms now seek leaders adept at navigating policy shifts, investor expectations, and new market infrastructure.

Nature-Based Solutions
Nature-based solutions—from reforestation to regenerative agriculture—offer cost-effective, high-impact climate and biodiversity outcomes. Scaling these initiatives demands leaders who blend ecological expertise with commercial acumen and social equity awareness.

Carbon Accounting & MRV
Robust carbon accounting and MRV are now strategic priorities underpinning trust and compliance in net-zero strategies. Organisations need leaders proficient in Scope 1–3 accounting, life-cycle analysis, and digital product development, with fluency in GHG Protocols and reporting frameworks.

Natural Resources
Pressure on water, land, and biodiversity demands strategic leadership to manage finite natural assets. Businesses, investors, and governments require leaders skilled in water resilience, circular resource planning, and nature-based asset management.
