Are you aiming at getting experience and applying your expertise within sustainability by working for a start-up with the goal to create a greener world? Then YOU should continue reading, because we are looking for a passionate sustainability intern to join Archr!
Archr’s vision is to help consumers globally make sustainable purchase decisions through a unique comparison platform. You will work closely with us co-founders in an agile, fun and creative environment where you will help with creating a ground-breaking method for measuring sustainability.
More about Archr: an early-stage impact start-up founded by three entrepreneurs from Stockholm School of Economics that has taken part in two of SSE Business Lab’s programs, where companies like Klarna and Voi also started their journey.
About the role: Your main responsibility is to, together with the team, contribute to the work of creating a method for measuring sustainability, based on research and prior knowledge.
The work will for example include:
Research what solutions already exists
Research relevant databases for sustainability information
Give inputs and come with ideas on how to improve the method

Who we are looking for: We want YOU with a genuine interest in sustainability and knowledge/education within the area. Having started or finished a bachelor/master/PhD within the environmental field (such as sustainable development, environmental science/engineering) is required. As a person you are ambitious, structured, innovative, solution-oriented and persistent. Moreover, you are self-driven but still a communicative team player that enjoys the high-pace and shifting entrepreneurial environment. Being eager to develop your knowledge and work hard is something we value more than experience.

Hard skills: Experience of using excel is required. Knowledge/experience of linking sustainability and technology, for example with the use of machine learning and algorithms, is meriting.
Benefits: This is a golden opportunity to develop and apply your sustainability knowledge in a practical way and at the same time contribute to a greener world! The working hours are highly flexible meaning that it is great to combine with studies or other work. Moreover, if doing a good job, you have the chance to continue to be a part of the team. If you don’t want to, you have gained a great experience that will be valuable to put on your CV.
Note: This is an unpaid internship.
Work place: The whole team is situated in Stockholm and it is therefore preferable if you live in Stockholm in order to participate in physical meetings. However, most of the meetings will be online.
Time Period: 3-6 months. We are flexible and can adjust the time frame.
Hiring process: Applications are open until 15th of March and we review applications continuously, so apply as soon as possible.
