Operations Coordinator

• GHGSAT offers greenhouse gas detection, measurement, and monitoring services to industrial and government customers around the world. We use our own satellites and aircraft sensors, combined with third-party data, to help industrial emitters better understand, control, and reduce their emissions.
• GHGSAT’s capability is unique: we provide high-resolution, local measurements of atmospheric methane and carbon dioxide concentration from space. This further enables us to detect greenhouse gas emitters and to visualize and quantify their emissions.
• As the scale of our operations grows to meet increasing international demand for our services, we are looking for an **Operations Coordinator** to oversee our Canadian operations. Reporting to our Director of Operations, the Operations Coordinator will oversee the cross-functional execution of our service, ensure compliance with our operational service levels, and coordinate internally to align team priorities and activities to our customer-driven goals. They will also support the processing of data collected using our Earth observation instruments.
• The Operations team has a flexible work environment with the option for hybrid work; however, this role must be based in one of our Canadian offices (MTL, OTT, CGY).
