To strengthen our ISCC EU team, we are looking forward to welcoming you as a Sustainability Manager – Biomass Fuels at our headquarters in Cologne.

In this role, you will play a key part in developing and advancing ISCC’s sustainability and certification framework for biomass-based fuels, with a particular focus on biogas, biomethane, and bioLNG. You will support and further strengthen the ISCC EU certification scheme, including traceability, chain of custody, and greenhouse gas (GHG) aspects, in line with the overarching principles of ISCC EU and related regulatory requirements, while working closely with internal teams, auditors, regulators, and external stakeholders.

  • Engaging with regulators, competent authorities, and policymakers to support consistent interpretation and recognition of ISCC requirements
  • Developing and updating system documents, audit procedures, and guidance materials for certified companies and auditors
  • Contributing to the integrity program by supporting risk assessments, conducting plausibility checks, and evaluating certification patterns in biomethane markets

Additional duties can include:

  • Representing ISCC at external events, conferences, and industry forums
  • Supporting the organisation of stakeholder meetings, webinars, and thematic workshops
  • Contributing to communication materials such as newsletters, website content, and technical updates related to biomass fuels

  • Good knowledge of sustainability certification systems and relevant EU legislation (e.g. EU RED, EU IR 2022/996 or RePowerEU)
  • Familiarity with mass balance approaches, traceability systems, or GHG calculations is an asset

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
