The Role:

We are looking for a motivated & talented content writer to join our team. The commitment level is very flexible, and ranges from a few hours a month to full-time — it is up to you and how much availability you have!

Currently, our team sends out two newsletters per week, but we are excited to expand our content calender! Currently our two types of content are: 

• "This Week in Climate": Each week we report on critical climate news to help keep you informed. 
• "Recent Deals": The top startup fundraising deals in climate tech each week. 

While we have some ideas of what new content could be, like the ideas listed above, we are looking for motivated writers who are excited to come up with new content ideas themselves!
