TNC is pushing hard into the Natural Climate Solutions Accelerator. This role is basically the bridge between the science of sequestration and the actual financial plumbing of carbon credits.

The mention of PDDs and validation readiness is the key part here. With the current scrutiny on nature based offsets, the project manager will likely spend most of their time defending baselines and additionality claims.

Remote is great, but these projects usually live or die by local land tenure and regional politics. I wonder how much actual field time is expected versus managing spreadsheets from a home office.

True, but the incubator part of the job suggests they are trying to build a pipeline of local enterprises rather than just running top down projects. That might shift the dynamic.
