More specifically, the Director, Net Zero role is responsible for conceptualizing the framework for achieving net zero zone-level commitments in the US and Caribe (with an initial focus on POS/Promo and Media decarbonization), and related L4TF zone-level commitments; developing the roadmaps for implementation and execution of these initiatives in partnership with various internal stakeholders; leading, organizing, and coordinating transversal taskforces as required to achieve zone goals; providing thought-leadership and technical expertise on sustainability topics for the US; advising internal leadership on priority sustainability issues and progress; building strategic partnerships with important external stakeholders; designing and driving solutions for ambitious sustainability programs; and importantly ensuring the right systems and data for measuring and reporting progress.
