Your New Role
- Lead and support Life Cycle Assessment activities for ADM products, materials and product families.
- Develop Product Carbon Footprints and LCA studies in line with relevant standards including ISO 14040, ISO 14044, ISO 14067, GHG Protocol and other applicable customer or regulatory requirements.
- Support the integration of LCA and product carbon considerations into the New Product Development process and sustaining engineering projects.
- Partner with Engineering and Product Management teams to identify carbon reduction opportunities through material selection, design optimisation, manufacturing process improvements, supplier engagement and lifecycle considerations.
- Source, review, align and validate product, material, supplier, manufacturing and logistics data required for LCA and Product Carbon Footprint calculations.
- Support the development and implementation of LCA software, tools, models, templates and guidance materials for ADM.
- Build and maintain scalable LCA models that can be used across product platforms and material groups.
- Translate complex LCA findings into clear business insights, customer responses and recommendations for cross-functional teams.
- Support customer sustainability requests including product carbon footprint data, LCA methodology explanations and evidence-based sustainability claims.
- Work with Procurement and suppliers to improve the availability and quality of primary emissions and material data.
- Support Design for Sustainability initiatives by providing data-driven insights on carbon impact, material choices, circularity, recyclability and environmental trade-offs.
- Contribute to the review and selection of LCA software solutions and external data providers.
- Develop internal training and awareness materials to improve LCA understanding across ADM and wider TE teams.
