THE TEAM

Brief overview:

You will join the team dedicated to nature and biodiversity analyses. We are a transversal team which aims to help all internal business lines to propose and deliver missions on nature and biodiversity.

On one hand, we develop AXA Climate’s internal capabilities around nature and biodiversity (tool building, datasets construction, training, participation to international working groups…) and on the other hand, we contribute to the delivery of consulting missions with financial institutions, agri-businesses, and industries to raise awareness on nature, understand impacts and dependencies, and build roadmaps.

The purpose of our team:

We help companies and investors that feel a mismatch between their environmental ambitions and their own ability to (i) decipher the changing landscape on nature and biodiversity and (ii) establish a general framework for measuring and managing the company’s interactions with nature in order to reduce its pressures on the environment on the one hand, and to control its exposure to the main nature-related physical and transition risks on the other.
