Description of the position

Can’t wait to make an impact on the world? You’re not alone. Join us in driving progress in the working world and beyond.
Your journey with us

Today, the world is facing several global challenges: climate change, transitioning from a linear economy to a circular one, increasing inequality and balancing economic needs with societal needs. Investors, regulators, as well as consumers and employees are increasingly demanding that companies should not only be good stewards of capital but also of natural and social capital and have the necessary governance framework in place to support this. ESG has therefore emerged as a key topic, with stakeholders seeking greater standards to promote accountability and incorporate sustainability factors into credit ratings, covenants and legislation pertaining to corporate governance and communication.

Stakeholders’ expectations and regulatory initiatives are pushing companies to provide more transparency and better explain how they serve the broader public interest in society, and they are willing to safeguard shareholders’ value by considering all risks and opportunities, including those relating to ESG.

The financial and economic implications of climate and ESG matters are manifesting in a measurable way. That’s why many investors care. That’s why an increasing number of regulators care. And that’s why there’s such a push to rapidly mature the progress made over the past years into investor-grade information that’s timely, comparable, consistent and reliable.

As a Senior Consultant in our ESG Assurance team, you will play a key role in leading and managing the delivery of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting and assurance services to clients. You will provide strategic guidance, oversee engagements and drive the development of innovative ESG solutions. More concretely you will provide sustainability reporting advisory and readiness services, perform assurance on sustainability information and be involved in our ESG due diligence services.

You will be joining a multi-disciplinary, international team, where you will work across a diverse portfolio of clients. You’ll attend and facilitate training programmes to develop your technical and leadership skills and have a personal coach who will help bring out the best in you.

You will support our clients by:

• Leading and managing ESG assurance engagements, including scoping, planning, risk assessment and execution;
• Providing subject matter expertise on ESG regulations, standards and best practices;
• Engaging with clients to understand their ESG reporting and assurance challenges and provide tailored solutions;
• Enhancing their risk management framework to incorporate ESG risk factors;
• Identifying, quantifying and prioritizing the materiality of ESG factors on the activities of our clients and deriving financial risk impacts under different scenarios;
• Supporting their sustainability journey from double materiality to reporting;
• Advising on and reviewing sustainability reports;
• Following-up of evolving regulatory requirements and expectations in the field of ESG (CSRD, ESRS, EU Taxonomy, CSDDD, ISSA 5000,…);
• Performing ESG Due Diligences.

Furthermore, you will be:

• Mentoring and coaching junior team members, and contributing to their professional development;
• Contributing to the leadership and business development efforts in the ESG space and contributing to proposals;
