Nature Solutions Analyst

About Renew

Renew (www.renewearth.com) is a nature tech start-up helping businesses embed nature improvement into their commercial decision-making. We take a multi-metric approach to the measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) of nature, working across taxonomic groups to deliver ecosystem-level snapshots of biodiversity, and give clients transparent, traceable access to this data through our digital platform.

We work with corporate clients to integrate nature-positive solutions into their supply chains, support landowners and managers in tackling environmental challenges, and help unlock value from natural capital through voluntary nature markets. Data quality, scientific integrity, and transparency are at the heart of everything we do.

As we grow, this role sits at the intersection of rigorous science, meaningful storytelling, and real-world conservation impact.

The Opportunity

This is a dynamic and varied role within the Nature Solutions team at Renew Earth, working closely with the Nature Solutions Lead to deliver high-quality technical and strategic outputs that shape the development of nature restoration and conservation projects.

You will contribute to the design and assessment of projects that generate measurable environmental benefits across carbon, biodiversity, water, and soil, supporting clients to understand both the ecological potential and financial viability of their interventions. A core part of the role will involve translating complex environmental data into clear, actionable insights that help bring projects to an ‘investor-ready’ stage.

Working across a diverse portfolio of projects in the UK and internationally, you will support the development of feasibility studies, natural capital assessments, and routes-to-market strategies, helping clients to unlock and monetise ecosystem service benefits through emerging environmental markets and policy mechanisms.

As part of a growing and interdisciplinary team, you will also contribute to a range of advisory and bespoke projects, from supporting governments and NGOs in developing natural capital markets to undertaking due diligence on nature-based investments. This role offers strong opportunities to develop expertise at the intersection of ecology, policy, and green finance.
