Position description
Global Solar Council (GSC) is looking for a Chief Operating Officer to help scale climate impact!
GSC is the non-profit, membership-based global industry association representing the solar energy and battery storage sector worldwide.
The Chief Operating Officer serves as a “trusted adviser” and key operational leader, dedicating their focus to developing and embedding internal systems, organizational stability, financial management, and operational governance. Partnering closely with the CEO, the COO will translate organizational strategies and growing company membership and philanthropic/grant portfolios into robust, sustainable operational execution. This includes bridging strategic oversight between a part-time finance manager and an elected voluntary Board Treasurer, managing complex international membership governance, and fostering a high-performing, remote-first global workplace culture.
This role is part of the Organisation Builder Program by Surge Climate Talent in partnership with InsightPact, designed to help climate civil society organisations scale their impact by building essential operational capacity. The program directly solves operational bottlenecks faced by many climate CSO leaders by recruiting experienced, strategic operations experts into CSOs to build the systems, processes, and governance necessary for sustainable growth.
To support your transition into the climate sector, and in addition to the role, the program provides structured climate education, mentorship and coaching, and a strong peer network. Ultimately, this role serves as your launchpad for a long-term career in the climate sector.
