Mission Sustainability is a consulting and implementation partner for sustainable startups, NGOs, and corporates. We design technology, strategy, and operational solutions that create measurable environmental impact — from afforestation and water restoration to ESG reporting and digital transformation. We work with organisations that are actually shaping a greener future, not just talking about it.

The role

We are looking for a Marketing & Operations Associate who can combine creativity with execution, strategy with on-ground action, and data with storytelling.

This is a rare hybrid: you will work on real sustainability projects — ESG, carbon, biodiversity — and own how those projects are communicated to the world. If you have studied environmental science or sustainability and want a role where that knowledge is used every day, or you come from marketing and want your work to mean something, this is for you.

What you'll do

  • Work on sustainability projects across ESG, carbon accounting, biodiversity, and allied verticals — research, documentation, and client delivery
  • Own content and social media for sustainability clients, from ideation and keyword planning through to execution
  • Conduct market and sector research, and turn findings into insights clients can act on
  • Build presentations, proposals, and reports that win attention and convert
  • Design and run outreach campaigns with measurable results
  • Craft case studies that show real client transformation
  • Get on the ground: visit client and project sites, manage operations, and make sure impact translates into action
  • Coordinate with interns and internal teams to keep projects aligned and moving

Who we're looking for

We are especially keen to hear from people with a background in:

  • Environmental Science, Environmental Engineering, Sustainability, Climate Studies, Ecology, or Natural Resource Management (B.Sc./M.Sc./B.Tech./M.Tech.) who want to build commercial and communication skills, or
  • Marketing, Communications, Business, or Management with a genuine, demonstrable interest in sustainability and climate

Requirements

  • 1–2 years of experience in marketing, operations, sustainability consulting, or a related field. Exceptional freshers are welcome to apply
  • Proficiency in Google Sheets / Excel — comfortable building dashboards and analysing data
  • Strong skills in Google Slides / Canva for storytelling and visual design
  • Clear, concise writing and confident communication in English
  • Familiarity with cold outreach tools and the ability to cut through the noise
  • Strong organisational skills, high attention to detail, and the ability to hit deadlines
  • Genuine passion for sustainability and the planet
  • Willingness to work on-site in Gandhinagar and travel to project sites as required

Bonus points for

  • Working knowledge of ESG frameworks (BRSR, GRI, CDP), carbon accounting, or LCA
  • Experience with WordPress, Wix, or other CMS platforms
  • SEO, performance marketing, or analytics tooling
  • Fluency in Gujarati or Hindi for field and client interactions
