The Kühne Foundation was established in 1976 by the Kühne family and is one of the largest foundations in the German-speaking world. As an operational foundation based in Schindellegi, Switzerland, it is involved in the areas of logistics, medicine, culture and, since the beginning of 2023, climate action. The Foundation is independent, operational and international.
The Kühne Foundation’s work on climate action aims to help decouple the growth of prosperity from greenhouse gas emissions and accelerate the transition to a just, low-carbon global society. We therefore work on solutions to reduce emissions, remove carbon, and strengthen resilience; we
focus on the role that logistics can play in facilitating the transition; and we use our capacities to support in particular low- and middle-income countries to seize the opportunities of their low-carbon and sustainable development.
For this purpose we are looking to recruit a (Junior) Research Analyst (Climate) to support our project work and develop our in-house intelligence. The research will cover a broad range of climate related topics, including climate impacts, emission reductions, carbon removal, adaptation and resilience as well as transport and logistics, energy, circular economy, and international trade. Your insights will help inform decision-making at the management level; and contribute to our knowledge products and external communication.
