Adaptation planner

Pay in the destination countries

Monthly, in US dollars. Each country is an Imora admission package — open one for that route's fees, language requirement and deadline.

What does the day look like?

Your day is project office work: climate vulnerability and risk assessments for cities, masterplans, buildings and infrastructure; screening of major projects for physical climate risk under TCFD and EU Taxonomy disclosure rules; drafting of city and regional adaptation and resilience plans; quality-assurance review of concept notes and project documents; briefs, learning notes and case studies.

Tools are GIS including ArcGIS and QGIS, climate model outputs and downscaled projections, GHG inventories, Excel-based cost and finance models, and resilience rating tools; Python scripting with GIS counts as an asset at Arup Milan. The week is 40 hours on standard office hours, with travel to project sites and workshops; with no permanent shift or night work, while deadline-driven overtime clusters around bids, disclosure filings and project review cycles. The imagined part — visiting resilient sites and drawing nature-based solutions — is around 20% of time; the remaining 80% is data cleaning, report writing, stakeholder meetings, bid documents and compliance checks.
