About Scope3

Scope3 is the industry’s leading collaborative sustainability platform. By modeling the complex digital advertising supply chain, we help brands measure and dramatically reduce digital waste to reduce carbon emissions from advertising and increase the efficacy of advertising investment. This is an exceptional opportunity to build a company alongside great people and make a difference in one of the most important issues facing the planet: the climate crisis.

We’re a reliably-funded company of 70 folks distributed across the globe. We are fortunate to be led by an experienced leadership team, many of whom designed and engineered the digital advertising landscape as we know it today. The company secured $20M in Series B funding led by GV in Oct 2023 (additional investors include Venrock, Rucker Park, Room40 Ventures, and Craft Ventures). Scope3 has significant market traction with more than 70+ customers and is experiencing accelerated growth.

Scope3 is a fully remote company and largely asynchronous to provide flexible working hours and to operate globally, with concentrations in New York and Europe. At this time, we are hiring in Canada, Australia, UK, France, Germany, and the United States.

About The Role

The Head of Research will be responsible for building and scaling the team responsible for researching, formulating, & maintaining the methodology for measuring emissions from advertising across channels. You deeply understand the industry landscape and intricacies of the advertising value chain.

The ideal candidate is a systems thinker, experienced in measurement methodologies. You take an iterative approach, recognizing the importance of quick feedback loops and continuous improvement. You thrive in a start-up environment where everything moves fast, and creative solutioning is key.

Responsibilities:

  • Conduct research on the environmental impact associated with the advertising lifecycle
  • Partner with data and technical teams to evolve the methodology and calculations for more accurate emissions measurement
  • Build and develop a high-performing team of Research Analysts, consistent with Scope3’s mission and values
  • Design and scale processes for maintaining the model, inclusive of gathering and integrating data across multiple sources
  • Develop insights and content through deep analysis of data and industry trends that help accelerate measurement and decarbonization at scale
  • Foster deep collaboration with partners to better understand their operations and how they should be reflected in the model
  • Shape industry standards and the GARM framework by actively participating in working groups, identifying and surfacing opportunities for improvement, and driving consensus

Experience:

  • Strong analytical skills with experience in quantitative and qualitative research methods
  • Excellent presentation and communications skills to both internal and external stakeholders
  • Deep knowledge of the martech landscape - ad tech and digital advertising is a plus
  • Ability to translate technical concepts to non-technical people. Familiarity with APIs, data integrations, cloud providers, and web-based technologies
  • Leading with an entrepreneurial and innovation mindset, comfortable working through an evolving business model and product opportunities



Our Culture is rooted in …  

  • A passion for the environment and climate work. We are a mission-driven company, and this is what motivates us to work hard and deliver outcomes for our customers. 
  • A desire to communicate clearly and empathetically while working asynchronously. We are remote-first and have been operating across time zones from day one, so we do a lot of collaboration using Notion, Miro, and other tools. 
  • We celebrate healthy conflict in the workplace; we focus on the solutions and we move on quickly. 
  • The ability and accountability to deliver what we promise. We do what we say we will do, and we don’t make promises we can’t keep. 
  • Experience driving systemic change. Our mission is to decarbonize advertising and this requires a holistic approach to re-imagining and inspiring an industry movement at a global scale.
