Job Description

Every day, we work together for what matters - bold, swift, and equitable climate action.

At 3Degrees, we help organizations large and small take action toward a decarbonized, prosperous future. The Environmental Markets (EM), Trade Operations team oversees all commodity supplies coming in and out of 3Degrees, and manages all operations behind the market transactions. The Trade Operations Analyst is an integral team member and will contribute in all stages of the contract creation and management, inventory management, and database record-keeping processes. This position supports the EM team in delivering and receiving supply while ensuring all contractual obligations are met by both parties.

This is a full-time, exempt role reporting to our Trade Operations Manager, EM. We value camaraderie, team collaboration, and the benefits of in-person connection, while offering flexibility. For this role, we prefer candidates to join us in a voluntary, flexible hybrid work style in our Portland, Maine or New York City office.

For exceptional remote candidates, we strongly prefer those located in states where we are currently eligible to hire: CA, OR, NY, WA, ME, TX, CO, MI, FL, MA, MN, VA, DC, GA, UT, and IL. While we prioritize candidates in, or open to relocating to, these states, we may consider outstanding remote candidates from other US states. Please note that hiring in a new state would involve evaluating the implications of establishing a new hiring presence there. Additionally, 3Degrees does not provide relocation assistance for this position.

Please Note: 3Degrees does not provide sponsorship or work authorization assistance; therefore, pre-existing right-to-work status is a prerequisite to be considered for this position.
