Data Scientist at Carbon Brief, UK
Carbon Brief is seeking an experienced candidate for a brand new role. The candidate will help analyse climate and energy data to find new stories and explain the latest policy developments.
Working with Carbon Brief’s award-winning team of journalists, original analysis of climate and energy data will be carried out to bring policy developments to life in a clear and engaging way.
Reporting to the Policy Section Editor, the candidate will undertake a mixture of snap analysis and longer-term data-driven projects. This could mean automating updates to Carbon Brief’s map of the world’s coal plants, working out the UK’s annual greenhouse gas emissions, building a spreadsheet model of emissions savings from electric vehicles or analysing pathways to limit warming to 1.5C.
This role is likely to be primarily focused on working with data, but there may be occasional opportunities for writing.
Deadline: 24 July 2023
