Description
Reports To: Chief Growth Officer Works Closely with: CEO, CFO, CLO/CCO, VP Carbon Solutions, and cross-functional leadership across Grassroots Carbon. About Grassroots Carbon Grassroots Carbon partners with ranching families to strengthen the economics and long-term sustainability of working lands through regenerative grazing practices that improve soil health, increase forage productivity, enhance water cycles, restore grasslands, support wildlife habitat, and build resilience to drought and extreme weather. In doing so, ranchers unlock new revenue streams while preserving their heritage and strengthening rural communities. Today, Grassroots Carbon partners with over 300 ranching families across more than 2.5 million acres in 22 states, making us the largest grassland soil carbon developer in the United States. Through this work, we have delivered more than 1.9 million verified carbon removals while helping ranchers generate measurable land stewardship outcomes across America’s working landscapes. Grassroots Carbon is trusted by leading corporate partners including Nestlé, Microsoft, Shopify, Olipop, Chevron, and Boeing. We collaborate closely with organizations including Audubon Conservation Ranching, Texas Agricultural Land Trust, and the Colorado State University Soil Carbon Solutions Center to ensure scientific rigor, transparency, and environmental outcomes at scale. The Opportunity AI infrastructure is reshaping America. Data centers, power generation, transmission infrastructure, industrial projects, and energy systems are expanding at unprecedented speed, but increasingly face constraints around permitting, water availability, community acceptance, environmental performance, and long-term resilience. We believe infrastructure developers increasingly need measurable environmental outcomes integrated directly into project development. Grassroots Carbon is building that solution.
