Biodiversity expert

AXA Climate’s purpose is to make regenerative business universal.

Reducing our negative impact on the planet is not enough. Our collective challenge is to switch from extractive companies to regenerative companies. To that end, we are transforming our business models, our organizations and our collective missions. And this transformation movement drives us.

We are changing the paradigm: our companies are living beings, nested in the living world. To serve this mission we have four lines of business: 

• Training: digital and scientific content that gets all employees engaged by giving them skills and tools
• Consulting: having an impact at the local level through concrete adaptation actions
• Insurance and financing: securing those who adapt and have an impact

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 to help actors from all sectors understand their nature-related risks, impacts, and opportunities.

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.
