OpenSC is an impact venture, co-founded by WWF and The Boston Consulting Group. We are on a mission to create technology enabled transparency for supply chains – for the benefit of the planet and the people that live on it.
OpenSC solutions help companies VERIFY claims about sustainable and ethical production in an automated, continuous, and data-backed way. To realise the value this creates, we TRACE products along the supply chain, and SHARE their story with consumers and business partners.
As the Senior Strategic Designer, no day will be the same.
You will work with a multidisciplinary team to define how to implement supply chain transparency technology that will verify, trace and share information about a given product. Each implementation is unique, which is why you’ll take the team through a design process starting with exploration of the needs of the participants in a given supply chain, progressing to experimentation with different solution concepts, through to defining solutions that consider both technological as well as behavioural components.
Since the teams are small, you will usually be the only design representative on your project. You will be expected to play a key role in planning and executing design components of a project, and you will be heavily involved in project and stakeholder management.
Your day to day will be filled with the following responsibilities:
Research & Field Work
Systems Mapping
Digital Interface & Interaction Design
We’re looking for candidates that share our vision and mission and want to work on a unique solution that will have a huge impact on global supply chains. Building a solution like this is not a simple task - we’re looking for people that embrace challenges, are comfortable with uncertainty and will go the extra mile to help us achieve our mission. A genuine desire for a more sustainable human impact on the environment is a must.
