Summary

Enveritas is looking for exceptional talent to join our team and to support our operations and data analysis around the world.

Background

Consumers are increasingly asking whether the products they buy are truly sustainable - produced under fair social, economic, and environmental conditions. Many companies have set ambitious goals of becoming “100% sustainable.” However, traditional approaches often fail to reach smallholder farmers who are too remote, too informal, or too small for existing verification systems.

Enveritas (www.enveritas.org) is a nonprofit organization, founded in 2016, developing innovative solutions for smallholder coffee farmers who fall outside the reach of traditional sustainability certification. Our rigorous, scalable, and transparent verification methods form the backbone of our Responsible Sourcing platform, helping companies invest in the areas that need it most.

We operate globally in coffee-growing regions across Latin America, Africa, and Asia, with a remote-first team and hubs in locations including New York, Uganda, Ethiopia, Colombia, and Indonesia.
