In this role you’ll own the numbers behind SIMPAR’s ESG agenda: collecting, consolidating and quality-checking environmental indicators such as waste, energy, emissions and water across the group’s seven businesses, and coordinating the data that feeds the corporate greenhouse gas inventory.
This matters because a holding of this scale can only move on decarbonisation and ESG targets if the underlying data is trustworthy. Your work will turn fragmented operational information into decision-grade intelligence for leadership, auditors and external reporting frameworks, the quiet backbone of the group’s sustainability strategy.
This suits someone who is analytically rigorous, comfortable chasing data across many internal teams, and motivated by making corporate sustainability claims defensible rather than decorative.
Job FAQs
What are the main missions and responsibilities of this role?
The core mission is to guarantee that the Group's sustainability data is reliable, traceable and useful. Day to day, this means collecting and consolidating environmental indicators (waste, energy, water and emissions) from SIMPAR's controlled companies, administering the indicator platforms and databases, and validating figures with internal teams and external consultants. A central responsibility is coordinating the information needed for the Inventário de Gases de Efeito Estufa (GEE), working alongside specialised consultancies and external auditors.
Beyond data collection, the analyst produces dashboards, management reports and executive analyses that track ESG targets and material topics, supporting decision-making at holding level. The role also involves monitoring the corporate sustainability initiatives' schedules, deliverables and action plans, and managing documentation and evidence for audits and reporting.
Initially, the emphasis falls heavily on environmental indicators and strengthening the quality and organisation of group-wide information. As the agenda matures, responsibilities are expected to broaden into other ESG, climate and reporting fronts, plus some administrative management of the area, such as contract monitoring and supplier interfaces.
Key learning opportunities for this job
This position offers unusually rich exposure to corporate GHG accounting in a multi-company structure. Working with specialised consultancies and external auditors on the emissions inventory means hands-on learning of methodologies, boundary-setting and evidence requirements that are hard to acquire in a single-business setting.
The analyst is also likely to deepen familiarity with reporting frameworks such as IFRS S2, CDP, GRI or TCFD, since the job explicitly flags them as differentiators and the holding reports on ESG performance. Building dashboards and executive analyses will sharpen data visualisation and stakeholder-facing communication skills.
Because SIMPAR spans logistics, mobility, sanitation, infrastructure and financial services, the role provides rare cross-sector benchmarking experience, comparing environmental performance and data maturity across very different operations, which is excellent preparation for a future ESG manager role.
How does the ideal candidate look like (experience, skills)?
The ideal candidate holds a completed degree in environmental engineering, environmental management, engineering, business, environmental sciences, geography, economics, statistics or a related field, and already has hands-on experience managing sustainability and environmental indicators, not just reporting on them, but owning collection, consolidation and quality control. Direct participation in preparing or coordinating a greenhouse gas inventory is essentially non-negotiable.
On the technical side, intermediate-to-advanced Excel is required, including pivot tables and database consolidation; familiarity with ESG indicator platforms would be a clear plus. Postgraduate specialisation in sustainability or ESG and exposure to frameworks like IFRS S2, CDP, GRI or TCFD would strengthen an application considerably.
Soft skills matter just as much here. The role involves extracting data from colleagues across eight independent companies, so autonomy, organisation and relationship-building are decisive. The candidate should be comfortable proposing process improvements rather than simply executing instructions, and must be available for on-site work in São Paulo's Itaim Bibi district.
Advice to stand out and make a successful application
Because this is fundamentally a data-quality role, your application should prove you have owned sustainability numbers end to end. Describe a specific indicator or emissions inventory you consolidated, the scope, the number of business units involved, the validation process, and how you improved data quality over time. Generic statements about 'passion for sustainability' will carry little weight against candidates who can show spreadsheets that were audited.
Tailor your CV to mirror the job's vocabulary: indicadores ambientais, Inventário GEE, dashboards ESG, rastreabilidade de dados. If you have worked with IFRS S2, CDP, GRI or TCFD, name the framework and your concrete contribution to the report or disclosure cycle. Quantify wherever possible, how many units, how many indicators, what error rate reduction.
For interviews, prepare to discuss how you handle a business unit that submits late or inconsistent data, since the multi-company holding structure makes this a daily reality. Reading up on SIMPAR's structure (JSL, Movida, Vamos, CS Infra, Ciclus Ambiental) and understanding which of them carry the heaviest environmental footprint will let you speak credibly about where the group's data challenges likely sit. Noting the company's stated values of Simplicidade and Atitude de Dono and reflecting them in how you describe your working style would resonate culturally.
What aspects of the company's sustainability is this role likely to focus on?
The immediate focus is environmental performance data across the Group: waste, energy, water and greenhouse gas emissions. The most visible deliverable is likely the corporate GHG inventory, which anchors SIMPAR's climate commitments and feeds external disclosure. Given the portfolio includes logistics (JSL), vehicle rental and mobility (Movida, Vamos), sanitation and environmental services (Ciclus Ambiental) and infrastructure concessions, the emissions profile is dominated by fleet fuel use and Scope 3 value-chain categories, areas where data collection is genuinely complex.
As the role evolves, it should touch the broader ESG agenda: social indicators, governance topics, corporate targets and materiality. The reference to IFRS S2 and CDP suggests the holding is moving toward climate-related financial disclosure, and this analyst would be among the people assembling the underlying figures.
There is also a cultural dimension. Sustainability is one of SIMPAR's declared corporate values, so this role helps translate that value into measurable performance across eight independent businesses, a governance and culture-building task as much as a technical one.
What are the main challenges someone in this role might face?
The hardest part is almost certainly the multi-entity data architecture. Eight independent companies with different systems, maturities and operational realities must feed a single consolidated view. Chasing missing data, reconciling methodologies and keeping deadlines across so many interfaces requires persistence and diplomatic pressure rather than formal authority, since the analyst sits in the holding and depends on counterparts elsewhere.
The initial heavy environmental focus means the role may feel narrow at first for someone eager to work across all ESG pillars; patience and appetite for data-quality fundamentals are essential. Audit and assurance cycles add pressure, as every figure must be traceable to evidence.
There is also a language and logistics dimension: the role is on-site in Itaim Bibi, and much of the internal documentation and interaction happens in Portuguese, so fluency in Brazilian Portuguese is effectively a practical requirement alongside the English implied by international frameworks.
How could a typical day look like for someone in this position?
A typical day likely starts with the indicator platforms: checking data submissions from the group companies, cleaning inconsistencies, updating spreadsheets and flagging gaps to counterparts via email or messaging. Much of the morning could be spent in Excel or an ESG platform, reconciling figures for emissions, energy or waste and preparing evidence files for audit traceability.
Meetings punctuate the week, calls with a consultancy on the GHG inventory, alignment sessions with environmental or operations teams at JSL or Movida, and check-ins with the sustainability manager on initiative timelines. The analyst may also spend time building or refining dashboards that translate raw data into executive-level views.
Toward the end of a reporting cycle, the rhythm intensifies: more validation rounds, more document control, occasional supplier or contract administration tasks. It is a role with predictable analytical work but recurring deadline peaks, and the balance between routine data stewardship and ad-hoc analysis shifts as the ESG agenda advances.
What are the opportunities for professional growth and development in this role?
The job description itself signals growth: the position starts focused on environmental indicators and is expected to expand into other ESG, climate and reporting fronts as the agenda matures. That trajectory suggests a natural path toward ESG coordinator or sustainability manager roles within the holding or one of its controlled companies, which collectively employ tens of thousands of people and offer internal mobility.
Working directly with auditors, specialised consultancies and international reporting frameworks builds a profile that is highly portable in the Brazilian and global ESG job markets. Mastering GHG accounting and IFRS S2-aligned disclosure in particular is a scarce skill set.
The holding-level vantage point is itself an advantage: exposure to seven or eight different business sectors accelerates strategic understanding far faster than a single-company role, positioning the analyst well for leadership positions in corporate sustainability.
The main stakeholders you might be interacting with
The most frequent internal stakeholders are the sustainability team itself and the environmental, operations and controlling contacts spread across SIMPAR's controlled companies (JSL, Movida, Vamos, CS Brasil, Automob, BBC Digital, CS Infra and Ciclus Ambiental) who supply and validate indicator data. The relationship is collaborative but often requires the analyst to chase, clarify and gently enforce standards without direct authority.
Externally, the role interfaces with specialised consultancies and external auditors involved in the GHG inventory and assurance processes, as well as suppliers and service providers for contract and payment administration. These interactions demand precision and clear documentation.
Senior leadership is a secondary but important audience: the dashboards and executive analyses produced feed decision-making at holding level, so the analyst's work indirectly reaches executives tracking corporate ESG targets. Balancing responsiveness to many data providers while maintaining rigour for the eventual executive and audit audiences is at the heart of the stakeholder challenge.
