Lawyer, Accountable Corporations (Parental Leave Cover)

This is an excellent fixed term opportunity for a self-motivated lawyer with climate law or climate litigation experience to make a key contribution to the work of ClientEarth’s Accountable Corporations team.  

The team, which sits within the Financial & Economic System (Europe) group, uses a range of laws, including corporate, financial, environmental, public and human rights laws to influence private actors with the objective (among others) of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with the Paris Agreement, reducing deforestation and biodiversity loss and otherwise supporting resilient ecosystems, healthy air and water, and societies that are just, fair and equitable. 

The role will include working on corporate climate litigation, supporting our legal strategies relevant to energy sector and energy markets.
