Global ESG Customer and Project Coordinator

The core mission revolves around owning the intake, drafting, and coordination of customer sustainability questionnaires and client-facing ESG inquiries. You will serve as the primary conduit ensuring external stakeholders receive accurate, validated environmental and social performance data within expected commercial deadlines. Beyond external inquiries, the role acts as an operational project coordinator for the Global ESG team. Key responsibilities include monitoring program timelines, managing documentation, maintaining centralized databases, and supporting internal reporting dashboards across cross-functional teams in multiple operating regions. Additionally, you will support external and internal communications, assist with employee sustainability training modules, and perform benchmarking research against emerging regulatory frameworks and competitor performance.

Working within an integrated industrial manufacturer provides a clear view into how Scope 3 emissions and supply chain diligence operate at scale. You will develop practical expertise in global ESG rating platforms, customer scorecards (such as EcoVadis or CDP), and enterprise data governance across diverse regional entities. Operating within the Legal and ESG division will also improve your understanding of corporate compliance, emerging EU and global sustainability mandates, and the governance mechanisms needed to unify disparate newly acquired manufacturing brands.

The ideal profile combines a degree in corporate sustainability, governance, or CSR with two to three years of applied corporate experience in project coordination or client sustainability requests. Professional comfort handling data consolidation in Excel and managing collaborative tools is essential. Because the role liaises with international commercial and technical teams, excellent written and spoken English is fundamental, with proficiency in other languages such as French considered an asset. High analytical rigor, meticulous attention to detail, and a proactive attitude will make a candidate thrive.

Highlight concrete examples where you successfully coordinated structured ESG responses, managed third-party rating platforms, or handled complex multi-stakeholder project deadlines. Demonstrating how you turn raw company data into polished, client-ready responses will provide an immediate advantage. Showcase your familiarity with manufacturing supply chain dynamics and customer-driven ESG requirements. PIP Global Safety is rapidly expanding through major brand acquisitions, so emphasizing your agility and ability to organize workflows in a fast-evolving corporate environment will resonate strongly with the hiring team.

The position is situated directly at the intersection of commercial expectations and corporate responsibility. A primary focus is addressing responsible sourcing, material safety, and carbon accounting inquiries driven by global industrial customers. On the internal side, the role supports global ESG data architecture, tracking sustainability metrics across newly consolidated product lines and monitoring progress toward corporate emissions, waste, and health and safety targets.

A frequent challenge will be collecting accurate, timely data from regional manufacturing and supply chain teams who are balancing heavy operational workloads. Synthesizing disparate inputs from newly acquired brand divisions into a single source of truth requires patience and diplomatic persistence. Managing tight commercial deadlines when responding to extensive, tailored customer questionnaires during peak reporting seasons will also demand strong prioritization skills and effective standard operating procedures.

A regular day could start by triaging inbound customer ESG inquiries, coordinating with sales reps to confirm deadlines, and reviewing responses against central compliance databases. You might then check in on project milestones for an ongoing cross-departmental sustainability initiative. In the afternoon, your focus could shift to updating global ESG data platforms, designing briefing slides for upcoming internal sustainability trainings, or conducting competitor benchmarking on packaging and circularity practices.

As the global ESG team matures alongside the company's acquisitive growth, there is substantial room to move from project coordination into broader ESG program management or specialized roles within sustainable procurement and non-financial reporting. Demonstrated success in streamlining reporting workflows and supporting commercial wins can position you as an indispensable bridge between sustainability, legal governance, and sales operations.

You will collaborate closely on a daily basis with the Global ESG and Legal leadership, as well as regional sustainability champions, commercial sales teams, and customer success managers. Externally, you will interact with corporate customer procurement and sustainability representatives, and internally with operations, supply chain, and communications colleagues to harmonize ESG messaging and data collection.
