Manager, Low Carbon

The main mission is to drive Pandora's low carbon agenda inside its crafting and supply operations, turning the company's science-based targets into real emission reductions. Day to day, this means maintaining and improving the greenhouse gas inventory, managing carbon reduction projects from planning to completion, and tracking whether initiatives deliver the expected cuts. You would also be the internal expert on carbon footprint methodology, advising teams on how to measure and reduce emissions in their area. Beyond the numbers, the role carries a strong engagement mandate: training staff on environmental practices, communicating progress, and bringing suppliers along on the same journey. The long term objective is to embed carbon reduction into how Pandora Production operates and how it works with its value chain partners.

You would deepen your expertise in GHG accounting under the GHG Protocol and Science Based Targets initiative, applying them in a complex manufacturing and supply chain setting. There is likely exposure to project management across multiple sites, supplier engagement and change management within a large, global organisation. You could gain insight into how a listed company integrates sustainability into operations and reporting, and build skills in training and internal communications. Working with Pandora's two LEED-certified facilities in Thailand may offer hands-on experience with energy efficiency, renewable energy and circular material topics. The role could also provide a platform to learn about broader ESG issues, such as responsible sourcing and social impact, depending on cross-team collaboration.

The ideal candidate likely holds a bachelor's degree in environmental science, sustainability, engineering, supply chain or a related field, with a master's degree seen as an advantage. You should bring 7 to 10 years of experience in sustainability and carbon footprint management, including GHG accounting and decarbonization programmes, ideally in manufacturing or supply chain environments. Knowledge of the GHG Protocol and SBTi is expected, as are proven project management skills and the ability to deliver initiatives from planning through execution. Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills are important, particularly for engaging suppliers and cross-functional teams. You should be comfortable leading and motivating subject matter experts, have solid analytical and data skills, and be proficient in Microsoft Office and reporting tools. Good communication in both Thai and English is required, and a creative, innovative mindset with a willingness to try new approaches would fit the company's stated culture.

To stand out, tailor your application to show direct experience with GHG accounting and decarbonization in a manufacturing or supply chain context. Quantify your achievements where possible, for example emission reductions delivered, projects managed, or supplier programmes implemented. Demonstrate familiarity with the GHG Protocol and SBTi, and mention any work with science-based target setting or validation. Because the role involves training and influencing, highlight examples of how you have engaged non-specialist colleagues or external partners. Pandora values creativity and a brave approach to problem solving, so you might include a brief note on an innovative carbon reduction idea you tested. Also, since the job requires Thai and English, make your language proficiency clear. Finally, connect your motivation to Pandora's specific context: crafting in Thailand, recycled materials and the 2030 halving target.

The role is squarely focused on climate and energy, specifically decarbonizing Pandora's crafting and supply chain operations in Thailand. That means the bulk of the work sits under the environmental pillar of ESG, with a strong operational carbon accounting core. You would help translate Pandora's science-based target, a 50 percent reduction across scope 1, 2 and 3 by 2030, into concrete actions inside production. Expect involvement in scope 1 and 2 emissions from the Thai facilities, plus scope 3 categories tied to purchased goods, supplier energy use and logistics. Governance and social angles may appear through supplier engagement and internal training, but carbon remains the centre of gravity.

One challenge could be the gap between corporate targets and operational reality: production teams may have limited time and resources to prioritise carbon projects alongside daily output goals. Another might be data quality and availability, since accurate scope 3 and supplier emissions data are often hard to obtain and standardise. Influencing without direct authority over production or procurement could require patient relationship building and clear business cases. Keeping up with evolving regulations and technologies adds another layer, as does balancing global reporting requirements with local Thai context. Finally, the role may need to maintain momentum on decarbonization even when external factors, such as energy prices or supply chain disruptions, push sustainability down the immediate priority list.

A typical day could start with a check on the status of one or two carbon reduction projects, perhaps a furnace efficiency upgrade or a packaging material swap, followed by a working session with production colleagues to review data quality for the monthly GHG inventory. You might spend time on supplier calls or site visits, discussing energy data or a decarbonization pilot, then prepare an update for a cross-functional steering meeting. Afternoons could include training a group of subject matter experts on carbon basics or drafting guidance for internal teams. The mix likely shifts with the project calendar, with heavier reporting periods around quarterly reviews and lighter periods focused on supplier engagement and research into new technologies.

This role sits within Pandora Crafting & Supply, which is central to the company's sustainability commitments, so high-visibility projects are likely. Success could open paths to broader sustainability leadership roles, such as heading carbon or ESG programmes across the value chain, or moving into operations or supply chain management with a sustainability focus. The experience gained in supplier engagement and business partnering could also lead to roles that bridge sustainability and commercial functions. Pandora's global presence means opportunities may arise to work on cross-regional initiatives or with the Copenhagen headquarters team. As the company continues to pursue its 2030 targets, the low carbon agenda is likely to remain a priority, which may create room for advancement.

Internally, you would work closely with the sustainability team, production and engineering colleagues at the Thai crafting facilities, supply chain and procurement functions, and possibly finance or legal teams on reporting and compliance matters. You would also engage with subject matter experts across Pandora Production who need support to become carbon reduction champions. Externally, suppliers and partners are key stakeholders, since a large share of emissions sits upstream. You might interact with auditors or verifiers, industry peers and possibly NGOs or consultants on methodology and innovation. The role also implies some contact with the Copenhagen headquarters sustainability team, given the global target framework.
