Inter IKEA is a group of companies that connects IKEA retailers with range development and suppliers and aligns the overall IKEA strategic direction. It consists of three businesses: Retail concept, Range and Supply. IKEA Supply is responsible to source, manufacture and distribute IKEA products to the IKEA retailers. This to secure customer availability in all markets and sales channels at lowest total cost.
In Purchasing Development, the assignment goes hand and hand with the IKEA Business idea as we are responsible to produce the wide range of well-designed, functional home furnishing products at prices so low that as many people as possible will be able to afford them. Affordability, accessibility, sustainability, and quality are our main priorities. We develop and execute sourcing strategies and thus meet the Supply markets/industries in 6 different categories. We are a true global organization with around 1000 co-workers placed in 27 different locations, close to the suppliers and the market. Within the Logistics function in the Purchasing Development, we focus on the following: leading logistics development and contributing to value chain development with a total cost approach; leading supplier capacity planning agenda in a proactive way to secure the foundation; and leading logistics competence development agenda to meet business needs.
Right now, we are looking for a Climate in Forest and Land Use Leader to work on, lead and enable IKEA to become climate positive and have an additional positive impact on people, planet and society. You will report to Climate in Forest and Land Use Manager, Christoph Leibing.
Job Description

Part of your role will be to identify and evaluate potential solution providers, tools, and cooperation partners. Moreover, you will perform performance evaluation of investments with focus on their climate performance in forest and agricultural land, incl. development of performance evaluation tools for impact on sustainable development goals. This role also requires the participation in the development of international climate reporting standards related to Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use like for example the GHG Protocol land sector and removal guidance.
More specifically, your role will support:
The design, development and execution of the "Removing and Storing Carbon Program" (RSC) as part of the program team.
The development of performance measurements for "storing carbon in land, plants and products" as part of the climate positive commitment. This includes the impact of responsible sourcing standards (e.g., FSC) on climate mitigation, adaptation and -resilience.
The adoption and implementation of reporting on baseline, progress, and target fulfillment on land carbon development within RSC projects and IKEAs supply chain.

It comes natural to you to work in a team where you contribute with your goal-oriented, cooperative problem-solving skills and pro-active approach.
