Chief Executive Officer (CEO) — United Eco Solutions (Global)
About United Eco Solutions
At United Eco Solutions, we are dedicated to building a sustainable future by replanting key rainforests in the world, working towards realizing many of the United Nations sustainable development goals, and helping businesses navigate the evolving landscape of climate policy, carbon markets, and sustainable development.
Our B2B services range from sustainability communication audits and CBAM compliance to lifecycle assessments and providing offsets with high-quality carbon credits (close to being certified by Gold Standard).
We are expanding rapidly across Africa, Europe, and the Americas, and are preparing for a stronger public-markets footprint in connection with TCU (Frankfurt Stock Exchange) and has an aggressive expansion plan to become a global leader in carbon credits.
The Role
We seek a battle-tested, scale-up CEO to take UES from a powerful base to #1 globally in our segment. You will set strategy, build a high-performance organization, expand supply (project pipeline) and demand (B2B/B2C), and drive capital-markets readiness—including integration planning with TCU ahead of a proposed combination.

What You'll Do
Strategy & P&L: Own the growth strategy and P&L; deliver hyper-scalable revenue and margin expansion.
Market leadership: Build the largest, most credible project pipeline across nature-based and community projects; ensure best-in-class MRV and registry compliance (Gold Standard/Verra/ICVCM/Article 6/CORSIA).
Commercial scaling: Grow enterprise sales and our subscription/B2C climate offerings; forge partnerships with corporates, marketplaces, and channel partners.
Capital & M&A: Lead fundraising, investor relations, and selective M&A/JVs; coordinate with Frankfurt-listed TCU / UES on integration planning and governance.
Operations in the field: Ensure safe, efficient on-the-ground execution (e.g., DR Congo in Africa, and other geographies) with strong local partners.
Team & culture: Recruit senior leaders; institute high-accountability OKRs; build a value-driven performance culture.
Risk & compliance: Uphold rigorous quality/integrity standards, legal/compliance (incl. ESG disclosures), and reputational risk management.



You should have
10+ years progressive leadership, 7+ years at C-level/GM with full P&L in climate, energy, commodities, fintech, or adjacent sectors.
Carbon markets experience: development, financing, verification/trading, or large-scale procurement.
Track record scaling in revenue; proven hiring of A-teams and building repeatable go-to-market engines.
Capital-markets fluency (public company experience or readiness). M&A/JV, cross-border dealmaking is a plus.
Languages: Excellent English required; German and/or Swedish/Norwegian are strong pluses.
High integrity, bias to action, and comfort operating in complex frontier markets via travel.

Location: Europe (Germany/Sweden) or US; international travel expected
Compensation: Competitive base + performance bonus + equity/options program (negotiable)
Reports to: Board of Directors (Chairman: Thomas Kristiansen) Visa mindre

United Eco Solutions is in the middle of an exciting growth journey and is now looking for someone who wants to help lead the certification process for our climate project according to the Gold Standard. Together with local communities, we are replanting the rainforest in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, home to the world’s second-largest rainforest. Through our efforts, we contribute to 14 of the UN SDGs by sequestering carbon, strengthening biodiversity and improving living conditions for the local population.


The project is currently in the certification process for the Gold Standard, a strong quality label for the carbon credits the project generates. The first milestone has already been achieved: the project is listed in the Gold Standard registry. In addition to the reforestation project, United Eco Solutions also runs a consulting business in Sweden focusing on strategic sustainability work, sustainability communication, and CSRD+VSME.


The role includes, among other things:
- Coordinating the certification process for Gold Standard
- Developing and quality-assuring project documentation (Project Design Document, Monitoring Report, SDG Impact Tool, etc.)
- Collecting, calculating and analyzing climate and socio-economic data
- Contact with international stakeholders and standards
- Contributing to reporting and communication about the project's climate and sustainability impact


The position may also include sustainability advisory services and the sale of carbon credits.


Our wish list (you don’t need to tick every box):
- Experience with climate projects, preferably in the forestry or agricultural sector
- Relevant education
- Experience with climate calculations and data management
- Comfortable working in a structured way with complex processes and taking responsibility to move projects forward
- Excellent proficiency in English (Swedish and French is a plus)
- Strongly preferred: knowledge of certification systems for climate projects such as Gold Standard, Verra, or similar


To thrive in this role, we believe you have a strong interest in environmental and socio-economic sustainability and want to make a real difference for sustainable development, both in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and in Sweden. We are a small organization with a broad international network, so being comfortable communicating in English is important.


Location and start date
Most of our team is based in Jönköping, Sweden, where we also have an office, but you are very welcome to work from wherever suits you best.


As we are currently in the monitoring and verification phase, we would prefer someone who can start as soon as possible or early this fall. That said, we’re of course open to adapting the role to your current situation!
