Role Overview
UNDO is tackling the greatest challenge of our time: climate change. We are a fast-growing for-profit business that is already one of the biggest carbon removal companies in the world. But this is only the start - we have ambitious plans aligned with great funding, excellent people and an inclusive team.
In 2025 UNDO was named one of four global winners of the $100M XPRIZE Carbon Removal competition, giving further recognition and credibility to enhanced rock weathering (ERW) as a carbon removal pathway, and UNDO as a scientific world leader in this field.
In addition to our successful ERW operations, we’re now leveraging our expertise and underlying technology to deliver the UNDO Platform; the digital, financial, and scientific infrastructure that enables project developers around the globe to run scalable, bankable, and verifiable ERW carbon removal projects, generating billions of tonnes of verified CDR.
Role Overview
This role sits at the intersection of financial strategy and business influence, owning long-term financial modelling while directly shaping company decision-making. You will build and maintain strategic financial models to evaluate growth opportunities and pending decisions, partner proactively across the business to bring rigorous analysis into strategic discussions, help steer critical commercial and operational conversations and support our investor relations.
Where You’ll Spend Your Time
Financial Analysis
- Ownership of sophisticated long-term UNDO financial models and analyses, including responsibility for scenario and sensitivity analysis, to support internal decision-making
- Collaboration with the commercial team to inform deal structuring and pricing for customer proposals and RPF responses
