Value Consultant

ABOUT CO2 AI

CO2 AI helps some of the world's largest companies understand and cut their environmental footprint. We deliver that value in two ways: through our platform, which runs product level carbon footprints at scale and models decarbonisation levers, and through the AI use cases we deliver alongside it. What our clients are after is not a dashboard, it is outcomes: decisions taken, levers activated, emissions actually coming down.

We spun out of BCG in 2023. We are 45 people based in Paris, with teammates in the US and the UK, and our working language is English.

As a Value Consultant at CO2 AI, you will partner with leading organizations to translate their sustainability ambitions into measurable business value.

Leveraging CO2 AI's platform, you will guide clients in operationalizing their sustainability strategies, ensuring they achieve tangible outcomes and ROI. From the moment a customer joins our platform, you will be their trusted advisor guiding them through a seamless onboarding experience, orchestrating collaboration across our expert teams (solution architects, product managers, support engineers, and back office teams), and ensuring they unlock the full potential of CO2 AI.

You will own a small portfolio of large, strategic accounts. Low volume, high stakes: these are some of the biggest companies in the world, and what you do lands at the top of their sustainability agenda.

WHAT YOU'LL DO (AND WHY IT MATTERS)

Strategic Advisory: Partner with clients to turn their sustainability ambitions into actionable strategies that align with business objectives and drive measurable impact

Value Realization: Leverage the CO2 AI platform to surface decarbonization opportunities, quantify their business value, and rally stakeholders to act

Stakeholder Engagement: Build trusted-advisor relationships across the C-suite, sustainability, procurement, and R&D, guiding clients through their transformation

Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with professional services, solutions architects, product, sales, and engineering to onboard clients and build robust data pipelines and integrations

AI Use Cases: Depending on your background, you may also deliver AI use cases to clients alongside the platform, putting AI to work inside their sustainability function and going beyond what the product does on its own

Working with AI: Use AI as a normal part of how you work. On the data side, to get your arms around messy client datasets fast, not necessarily to solve everything yourself, but to know what you are looking at and what to ask for. On the delivery side, to automate the repetitive parts of onboarding, quality checks and recurring reporting, so your time goes to the client rather than the plumbing

Pre-Sales Advisory: Demonstrate platform value to prospects through tailored demos and compelling business cases that quantify ROI and win internal buy-in

Thought Leadership: Stay ahead of industry, regulatory, and best-practice trends, positioning CO2 AI as the category leader internally and externally
