Growth Operations Intern

What is Sylvera anyway? ‍👩‍👨🌳

Sylvera helps organisations make confident decisions in carbon and commodity markets. We independently assess the quality of carbon projects, track market pricing and supply signals, and provide geospatial and carbon intensity data — giving our clients the clarity they need to invest in real climate action.

We're a team of 130+ scientists, engineers, and market experts based across London, New York, São Paulo, Singapore, and Tokyo. Our work spans market intelligence, geospatial analytics, multi-scale lidar research, and policy analysis. We partner with governments and policymakers to raise the bar for transparency and rigour across carbon markets.

Backed by over $96 million from investors including Fidelity, Balderton Capital, Index Ventures, and Insight Partners, we're trusted by Fortune 500 companies, major financial institutions, and governments worldwide.

If you care about climate, enjoy solving hard problems, and want to work with people who take the mission seriously — we'd love to hear from you.

What will I be doing? ‍‍👩‍💻👨‍💻

AI has now hit an inflection point where it genuinely can drive massive efficiencies in how businesses scale. We provide highly trusted carbon data, insights, and tooling using an unparalleled combination of proprietary algorithms, physical field research, world-class subject-matter experts, and emergent AI technologies, and we are now scaling faster than ever before.

We're looking for a hands-on Growth Operations Intern to help the sales and growth teams work faster and smarter. We want someone who thinks in systems and processes to apply an innovative, AI-first approach to improve existing workflows, automate analysis and speed up our sales function.

This is an execution-focused role for someone with strong technical skills and a curiosity for how businesses grow. You’ll work directly with commercial leadership and collaborate with teams across the business, from product & finance to engineering and geospatial.

Whilst this is a 6-month internship, we aim to promote high-performing candidates to full-time roles from as early as 2 months in.

• Identify workflow inefficiencies across the commercial team and propose or directly implement fixes.

• Optimising commercial data, tools and processes.

We’re looking for someone who: 🧠💚

• AI-native mindset: Comfortable using AI tools (e.g. ChatGPT/Claude, workflow automation) to improve productivity, automate processes, analyse data, and accelerate campaign execution.

• Technical in skillset, commercial in mindset: as comfortable in a spreadsheet as you are thinking about business impact.

• Highly detail-oriented, analytical and process-driven.
