Overview
Bureau Veritas is a world leader in testing, inspection and certification services, operating in 140+ countries.
Our Sustainability Transition Services team across the Middle East, Caspian & Africa (MCA) helps organisations measure, verify and improve their environmental and social performance — from GHG accounting & verification and ESG assurance to green building certification, energy management, and sustainability advisory.
Role Overview
The Sustainability Specialist is a key member of Bureau Veritas MCA's central sustainability team, based in Dubai.
Working directly with the MCA Director of Sustainability Growth, this role provides technical, business development and proposal support across all three product lines (Industry, Building & Infrastructure, Certification) and all five MCA areas.
It requires a blend of technical sustainability knowledge and commercial aptitude — the ability to understand complex sustainability services, translate them into compelling proposals, and support area teams in winning business.
This is a high-visibility, cross-functional role at the heart of BV MCA's sustainability growth engine, covering 35+ countries.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead or co-lead the preparation of sustainability service proposals, RFP responses and commercial offers across IND, B&I and CER service lines for clients in all MCA areas
- Maintain and continuously improve the MCA proposal library — templates, CVs, service descriptions, methodology summaries, case studies and pricing guides
- Manage the MCA sustainability pipeline tracker in Salesforce — maintaining accuracy of status, values, submission dates and win/loss records
- Provide technical sustainability support on advisory mandates as a generalist specialist, in coordination with the Egypt Hub and area teams
- Prepare client presentations, pitch materials and capability documents for the regional team
- Coordinate and implement the bid/no-bid decision process and post-submission win/loss tracking
- Support BD campaigns (CBAM, sustainability assurance, IFRS S2) in coordination with area sustainability leads
- Assist in preparing management reports, pipeline dashboards and performance updates
- Maintain and update the MCA Sustainability SharePoint knowledge repository
- Support the organisation and content development of monthly thematic training sessions and the quarterly regional newsletter
Requirements
- 2–5 years of experience in sustainability consulting, ESG advisory, proposal management or technical business development in the MENA or MCA region
- Good working knowledge of sustainability services: ESG assurance (ISAE 3000), GHG verification (ISO 14064), CBAM advisory, green buildings (EDGE/LEED), IND sustainability
- Excellent written English — ability to produce clear, compelling commercial and technical documents to a professional standard
- Experience with Salesforce or equivalent CRM and pipeline management tools
- Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple proposals and deadlines simultaneously
- Bachelor's degree in sustainability, environmental science, engineering, business or related field
- Arabic or French is a strong advantage given the MCA regional coverage
