About the company:

Public benefit company on a mission to fight climate change by genetically enhancing CO2 capture and storage in trees.


Living Carbon is a public benefit company with a mission to fight climate change by transforming marginal land into high-value environmental assets. Our team specializes in restoring abandoned mineland and degraded agricultural land into diverse, thriving forests. We’re backed by prominent investors, including Temasek, Toyota Ventures, Lowercarbon Capital, Felicis Ventures, and YCombinator.

We're seeking a driven Supply Chain Manager who can take ownership of results and is committed to building efficient, high-quality systems. You'll lead our supply chain function across multiple third-party nursery locations, where you will manage the relationships, procurements, growth, and logistics required to deliver reforestation-ready seedlings to carbon sites.

Living Carbon PBC is an equal opportunity employer.

We believe the best solutions to climate change are created by diverse teams. Living Carbon is focused on building a multicultural and inclusive team with strong representation from the many diverse communities disproportionately impacted by climate change. As a public benefit corporation, ensuring solutions to slow climate change are widely distributed to all peoples is critical to the success of our mission. 

We are most interested in candidates who have the following experience:

  • 3-5 years of supply chain management experience, with at least 2 years in a leadership role.
  • Experience managing supply chains for perishable goods, or time-sensitive agricultural/horticultural operations (nurseries, greenhouses, floral, produce, landscaping, or related fields strongly preferred).
  • Proven track record managing multi-location operations (facilities or nurseries).
  • Strong understanding of quality management systems and production planning.
  • Experience with inventory optimization, management, and demand forecasting.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities.
  • Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain Management, Business, Agriculture, or related field preferred but not required. 
  • What makes you stand out:

  • Understanding of the unique challenges of working with living products (seasonality, quality degradation, care requirements, timing sensitivity).
  • Experience with negotiating and managing complex supplier contracts.
  • Track record of implementing process improvements that drive efficiency.
  • Ability to thrive in a collaborative startup team environment where you'll wear multiple hats and quickly take ownership of the responsibilities in the domain. 
  • You set high but achievable standards and expectations for yourself and the team. 
  • Excel at making data-driven decisions quickly in dynamic environments.
  • Thrive in environments where your impact is visible and your contribution matters.
  • Key responsibilities:

  • Partnership Management: Manage third-party vendor relationships and partnership matters such as inventory planning, quality control, logistics and cold storage.  
  • Production Oversight: Responsible for general production oversight, ensuring all nurseries are on track to meet contract standards and the expectations and goals of upcoming carbon projects.  
  • Logistics and Distribution: Ensure all trees are delivered on time and ready to plant. 
  • Compliance and Reporting: Ensure all nurseries are complying with Living Carbon standards and regulations as well as reporting and tracking any quality concerns that may impact inventory. 
  • Problem-Solving and Support: Providing detailed risk management solutions for all aspects of the supply chain.
