About Deepsink

Deepsink is a commercial agency dedicated to accelerating the commercial development of Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) companies, helping the most promising climate tech and infrastructure scale with real market traction. As one of the first commercial agencies focused on CDR, we operate at the forefront of a market expected to grow dramatically this decade, giving you a rare chance to shape how durable carbon removal is bought and sold.

As the first commercial agency in the CDR sector, we are at the forefront of an industry set to grow to £200 billion by 2050. Joining us offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of CDR and make a meaningful impact.

The opportunity

We’re hiring a commercially minded carbon markets specialist to drive business development and deal execution for Deepsink clients across multiple CDR pathways (e.g., BECCS, DAC, biochar, enhanced weathering).

You will need to combine technical rigour with clear communication to help us win and deliver work by producing precise RFP responses, credible proposals, and concise explainer materials. Track standards, policies, market signals, etc., make you excited, and you are confidently able to turn data into practical tools that help our clients turn complex science and standards into crisp, bankable offtakes.

What you’ll do

  • Support RFPs end-to-end: Qualify opportunities, coordinate inputs, write/assemble responses, manage clarifications, and lead or support orals.
  • Product technical proposals: Working with the Deepsink team and client models, translate pathway‑specific fundamentals (MRV, durability, additionality, FOAK tech, location, risk) into compelling value propositions aligned to buyer needs and procurement criteria.
  • Create enablement assets: Write buyer guides, one‑pagers, method playbooks, method summaries, and data room checklists that help busy decision makers move forward.
  • Support commercial execution: Partner with our commercial leads on discovery, qualification, and negotiation. Support modelling for pricing structures, offtakes and delivery risk.
  • Navigate VCM & compliance: Advise on registry options, methodologies, eligibility, claims integrity, and contract structures (ex‑ante/ex‑post, offtakes, forwards).
  • Market intelligence: Track policy shifts, standards updates, buyer preferences, and competitor moves; turn insight into GTM plays and enablement assets.
  • Sales ops craft: Maintain clean CRM hygiene, forecast accurately, and improve repeatable processes, templates, and win‑themes across pathways.

What you’ll bring

  • Carbon markets experience: 1‑3+ years in voluntary/compliance carbon markets, climate tech sales, sustainability procurement, or adjacent consulting/agency roles.
  • Technical understanding of CDR: Working knowledge of MRV concepts, durability timeframes, counterfactuals, and methodology requirements across multiple pathways.
  • RFP & proposal excellence: Proven track record supporting complex RFPs and producing persuasive, technically robust proposals.
  • Enterprise sales skills: Discovery, multi‑stakeholder alignment, objection handling, and commercial negotiation.
  • Tools: Proficient with CRM (HubSpot etc), collaboration/project tools (Notion, Monday/Trello), and basic financial/pricing modelling.
  • Communication: Crisp writing, confident presenting, and the ability to simplify complexity without losing rigour.
  • Nice to have: experience with BECCS/DAC/Biochar/ERW suppliers or corporate buyers; familiarity with registries, standards, and label programs; exposure to offtake contracting and risk allocation.

Why Join Deepsink?

Growth Potential: This role offers significant growth opportunities in a rapidly expanding market. Build the commercial muscle behind frontier CDR projects and see your work convert to real tonnes. Operate across multiple pathways. Fast learning, high variety, outsized impact.

Join a small, ambitious team with room to grow into leadership.

Travel Opportunities

There may be opportunities for international travel as part of the role.
