About us
Planetrics is a specialist provider of climate change scenario analysis to the financial industry, spun out of Vivid Economics in 2020. Our mission is to help financial institutions understand and manage the risks and opportunities arising from climate change; and ultimately to support them in aligning their activity with a low-carbon economy and a safe and stable climate. We work with leading financial institutions around the world including banks, asset managers, asset owners, and insurers.
We are specialists in modelling climate-change risk and opportunity modelling at the level of regions, sectors and assets, and in integrating this data with existing modelling and decision-making frameworks. We use this analytical expertise to support financial institutions with a wide range of activities including portfolio management, risk management, regulatory reporting, and stress testing.
Our team has been developing climate risk models with leading universities and financial institutions since 2014. We have deployed that knowledge and experience to build Planetrics, which is developed specifically with the needs of the financial sector’s growing needs for climate analytics in mind.
Planetrics is committed to diversity and inclusion and welcomes all applicants regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, sex or sexual orientation.
The Role
We are looking for Analysts or Senior Analysts to enhance and expand our modelling of climate scenarios and transition risks. This role will involve integrating climate scenarios into our existing climate risk analytics, developing new sector climate risk models, and supporting our clients and client delivery team in the process of selecting and developing scenarios. Experience working with Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) or their outputs, and in scenario downscaling or expansion, in the context of either climate change or another topic, is very useful. Expertise working either in, or with firms in sectors, such as utilities, oil & gas, mining, heavy industrials, land use, agriculture etc. is desirable.
