We give you a world of potential

At Computershare, our Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) team plays an important role in delivering and supporting our global ESG and Net Zero programmes and commitments. This is a great opportunity to start or build your career in sustainability within a supportive, global environment where you can learn, develop and gain practical hands-on experience.

You’ll be part of the central ESG team, working with colleagues across different regions and functions. You’ll gain exposure to a wide range of activities, from environmental data and reporting through to supporting employee engagement initiatives.

A role you will love

This is a varied and hands-on role where you’ll get involved in a range of different ESG areas, with a particular focus and Net Zero and carbon reduction activities.

On a day-to-day basis, you will:

  • Support the collection, organisation and analysis of ESG data
  • Help with key reporting activities such as ESG/sustainability disclosures and carbon footprint reporting
  • Collaborate with different teams across the business to drive and support ESG/Net Zero programmes and initiatives
  • Assist with internal ESG communications and engagement activities, including facilitating and supporting our Sustainability Champion network
  • Support meetings, networks and ongoing ESG/Net Zero initiatives

You’ll follow an annual ESG calendar, but the work can change frequently. This means you’ll need to be comfortable learning on the job and adapting to new tasks and getting involved in ad hoc tasks as new priorities arise.

What makes the role great:

  • A strong entry point into ESG, sustainability, and Net Zero
  • Exposure to global programmes, projects and stakeholders
  • Opportunity to learn about ESG/sustainability reporting, data, and programmes
  • Variety in your day-to-day work
  • Challenges to consider:
  • Balancing structured tasks with changing priorities
  • Working with detailed data and multiple systems
  • Building confidence when working with different internal and external stakeholders

What will you bring to the role?

This role is ideal for someone early in their ESG/sustainability career who is keen to further develop their knowledge and skills. You’ll be a proactive self-starter who thrives in a varied role and is motivated by making a positive impact on ESG and sustainability.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has a genuine interest in and passion for ESG and sustainability
  • Is confident working independently whilst also recognising when to seek support
  • Can communicates effectively with stakeholders at all levels across the business, including senior management
  • Can quickly understand new concepts, systems, and reporting requirements
  • Is adaptable, and comfortable working in a constantly evolving and fast-paced environment
  • Demonstrates a strong attention to detail, particularly in relation to data analysis, interpretation and reporting

You’ll also bring:

  • A foundational understanding of environmental management and sustainability
  • Strong Excel and data-handling skills
  • An understanding of sustainability, environmental topics and/or ESG (this can be from education or previous work experience)
  • The ability to interpret complex information and present it clearly
  • Experience working in a corporate environment, ideally within sustainability or a related field
  • The ability to work both independently and as part of a team

Above all, we’re looking for someone who is motivated, and excited to build a career in ESG within a global organisation.
