Partnerships & Sales Leader About Courageous Land and this Role:

Our mission is to reverse climate change while creating abundance and health for life on Earth. Courageous Land helps unlock the vast potential of agroforestry by reforesting degraded landscapes in a way that optimizes carbon removal, organic production, social impact, biodiversity and more. We use our Agroforestry Intelligence Platform to support land managers with planning, financing, management, and the sale of agroforestry products/carbon, while also helping corporate partners achieve decarbonization.

Courageous Land is looking for an exceptional professional to work alongside its CEO and CFO in order to execute its mission. We operate large-scale regenerative agroforestry systems and a Platform for fellow land stewards. Courageous Land is at the intersection of agroforestry, reforestation, carbon credit markets, regenerative agriculture, experiential marketing, and brand building. This professional will help with business development, investor relations, product sales, platform sales, and partnerships. Candidates must be fluent in English + Portuguese, to be able to participate in English-speaking meetings with partners. Spanish is also desirable.

Large-scale tropical agroforestry is beautiful and intellectually challenging. We look for mission-aligned, intelligent, mission-driven teammates that have a history of achieving important goals. We operate at the frontier of the agroforestry world and push that frontier further every day. Our environment is expansive, action-packed, and gratifying. If you are ready to be the best version of yourself, come join our team on this mission.
