Boston, United States Maplecroft Full time

**Company Description**
We help the world see new possibilities and inspire change for better tomorrows. Our analytic solutions bridge content, data, and analytics to help business, people, and society become stronger, more resilient, and sustainable.

Verisk Maplecroft is a data provider and trusted advisor to clients from a range of sectors, including natural resources, financial services, and consumer goods. Our international Corporate Risk and Sustainability (CR&S) consulting practice is structured to provide clients with innovative and practical advice, which often leverages our unrivaled risk datasets covering over 160 issues and 198 countries globally.

**About the role**

Within CR&S, our well-established Sustainable Procurement and Human Rights team has been at the forefront of the ongoing evolution of business and sustainability strategy, management, and research for over 20 years. This team operates alongside — and in close collaboration — with multi-disciplinary teams responsible for creating innovative products and consulting solutions related to Climate & Resilience, ESG Reporting and Political Risk.

As a Managing Consultant, you will primarily lead project teams and work with clients to ensure that their business practices align with international standards, domestic laws and norms related to environmental and social (E&S) issues. You will also assist clients by developing and helping to implement strategies to address the actual and potential E&S impacts of their operations and supply chains.

The role also provides an excellent opportunity to contribute to the wider work of the business in developing innovative new products to help our clients positively impact the sustainability agenda at scale.

**About the Day-to-Day Responsibilities of the Role**

As a Managing Consultant, you will lead or work on a range of projects for our clients. This is likely to include:

- Managing the delivery of consulting projects in the fast-evolving world of sustainability with a focus on responsible sourcing and human rights, such as advising clients on strategy formulation, governance arrangements, due diligence and remedy processes, regulatory compliance, and external reporting
- Conducting company diagnostics and risk / impact assessments to help clients identify, prevent, and mitigate potential negative sustainability impacts (often leveraging our proprietary country, industry, and commodity risk datasets to drive the assessments)
- Participating in a range of business development activities, including needs assessment, project scoping, proposal writing, commercial and contractual negotiation (in close collaboration with Sales and Account Management colleagues)
- Contributing to client engagement and brand awareness activities, including creating engaging thought leadership material, presenting at conferences and webinars, roundtable facilitation, etc.
- Supporting the maintenance and enhancement of existing subscription-based products (such as our geopolitical, human rights and environmental indices and written Insights) through expert analysis and research
- Helping to identify opportunities to convert consulting solutions into scalable, subscription-based products, working in close collaboration with Product, Sales & Marketing, and Analytics teams.
- Providing leadership, training, and guidance to junior colleagues within the Sustainable Procurement and Human Rights team and to those from other teams contributing to your projects (we envisage there will likely be line management opportunities in time)

**Qualifications**
About you:

- At least five to 10 years of sustainability consulting experience, including relevant experience with corporate or government supply chains.
- A track record of practical experience creating robust proposals and successfully managing and delivering consulting projects
- Strong knowledge of international sustainability standards and norms, and key national and international regulatory requirements and trends, particularly as they relate to business
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage with a wide range of stakeholders
- Microsoft Office proficiency, particularly PowerPoint and Excel
- Good presentation, research, report writing and analytical skills
