GHG Project Analyst
The Advisory and Research arm of Natsource is currently looking for a research analyst to assist in delivery risk

The position involves monitoring of regulatory
developments, evaluation of GHG mitigation projects; GHG emission reduction calculations; GHG technology and
methodology analysis; monitoring and assistance of projects through the regulatory cycle; liaising with internal
clients and project proponents/representatives; and development of assessment reports and analytical research
products. The analyst would be located in Ottawa, Canada (London, UK, is also an option).
The ideal candidate has familiarity with and interest in climate change mitigation technologies, the CDM/JI
process, the fundamentals of project‐ or facility‐based GHG emission reductions, the carbon market, and UNFCCC
regulatory developments. S/he preferably has a university degree in engineering, energy or environmental
technology, strong technical and/or scientific background, and at least 2 years of relevant experience. The

under pressure. The ideal candidate has excellent interpersonal, organizational and analytical skills and the ability
to work both individually or as part of a team and to manage his/her own work effectively and prioritize tasks.
Language skills are an advantage, given the location of many projects in non‐English speaking countries.
