Scope 3 Sustainability Sales Leader – Enterprise Sales (Food & Beverage)

Welcome to Perennial.
Perennial is raising the global standard for Scope 3 emissions measurement and verification across agriculture and land-based supply chains. Our technology enables leading food, beverage, and consumer-goods companies to measure, manage, and reduce Scope 3 emissions with scientific rigor — while also supporting high-integrity carbon-credit programs for regenerative agriculture.
We work with some of the world’s largest and most complex supply chains, combining digital MMRV, soil science, and scalable data infrastructure to unlock climate impact at enterprise scale.
This role is designed for someone who is commercially driven, deeply fluent in Scope 3, and motivated by and experienced in closing large, multi-year enterprise deals.
Our headquarters is in Boulder, CO, USA. We are a fully flexible company that supports remote and hybrid work and is accepting applicants from the United States and Europe.
We’re venture-backed by mission-aligned investors including Temasek, Bloomberg, Microsoft Climate Innovation Fund, SineWave Ventures, Alumni Ventures Group, and Collaborative Fund.

Position Overview

• This role is 100% focused on new logo acquisition and revenue generation. You will own the full commercial motion — from identifying target accounts and opening doors, to executive-level selling, structuring multi-year contracts, and closing complex deals.
• You will work closely with Perennial’s science, product, marketing, and delivery teams, but you are accountable for bringing in new customers. You must bring an existing knowledgebase and network related to Scope 3.

• Build and manage a consistent enterprise pipeline, from first meeting to signed contracts.
• Drive deals that involve Scope 3 inventories, FLAG emissions, supplier engagement, and land-based decarbonization.


• Executive-Level Selling: 
• Engage directly with Chief Sustainability Officers, VP Sustainability, Procurement, Supply Chain, Climate, and Finance leaders.
• Translate technical MMRV, soil carbon, and Scope 3 concepts into clear business value, risk mitigation, and ROI.
• Navigate complex buying committees across sustainability, procurement, finance, and legal teams.


• Deal Leadership

• Partner closely with Marketing to shape audience-specific messaging, content, and campaigns that resonate with sustainability, procurement, and supply chain leaders.
