**About Future Matters and This Role**
Future Matters is a non-profit consultancy and think tank dedicated to supporting effective action on the greatest global challenges of our time. Our focus areas include climate protection, AI governance, and biosecurity.
**_ Our Climate Protection work_**:
To make the biggest difference on urgent issues, we rigorously prioritize our activities. That means setting aside many “good” options to focus on the areas where we can make an outsized difference. Our work in climate protection focuses on advancing the most impactful, yet underrated, policy opportunities for decarbonization.
In April 2024, we launched our research report, “8 EU Policy Priorities for Global Decarbonization. Pathways to European Climate Leadership”, a systematic prioritization study that identifies the EU’s best climate policy opportunities for the 2024-2029 mandate. This systemic analysis identified the most impactful, yet neglected, EU climate policies.
Our research has received positive interest from high-ranking decision makers in the EU and established partners. We are expanding our advocacy efforts further to get these policy opportunities and others like them on the Commission agenda.
The charity evaluator Giving Green, that searches for the world’s most effective climate nonprofits states in its evaluation: Future Matters’ “analytical approach to policy engagement has [...] received praise for being especially actionable and unique in the EU’s nonprofit ecosystem.”
**_ About the Senior Policy Manager role_**:
In this role, you and your team will continue and intensify our exchange with top-tier policymakers around high-impact, cost-effective, and underrated climate policy opportunities to greatly increase the EU’s impact on global emission pathways in the next decades.
**_ Our team culture_**:
Future Matters seeks to create an environment where talented people can do their best work. Employees describe our workplace feel as “warm and sciency.” Here are a few of our practices:
- We celebrate our individual and collective wins and exchange thoughtful and kind feedback to improve our efforts.
- We believe the best argument, evidence, or reasoning should determine our actions, even if it doesn’t come from the highest ranking person in the room.
- We try to minimize administrative work and designate clear roles to increase autonomy so we can act fast.
- We meet three times a year in person for organization-wide retreats to get to know each other better and learn together.
This role will be our first Brussels-based hire. (Our existing staff is currently based in Germany, Austria, Sweden, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States.) However, you will be quickly joined in Belgium by one to three existing and new staff in 2025, with a likely further expansion of the team in 2026. Our Brussels team will create a supportive in-person culture that complements our current remote-based practices.
