Methane is the defining emissions challenge of the energy transition. The science is hard, the data is complex, and the gap between what operators report and what they actually emit can be significant. Closing that gap — with rigor, credibility, and precision — is what Highwood does. As a Consultant, you are where that work happens.

You are the person who turns methane expertise into client value. Most of your time is spent doing the work: researching, analyzing, writing, and delivering the outputs that help clients understand and manage their emissions. You are not a support function — you are a core contributor on complex technical engagements, working alongside a team of experts who are setting the standard for what credible methane management looks like globally.

You bring 2–5 years of relevant experience and a genuine command of your area of expertise. You can work independently, manage your time across multiple projects, and communicate technical findings clearly to clients. You know when to ask for guidance and when to run. And you are motivated by the knowledge that what you produce matters — not just to clients, but to the broader challenge of getting methane right at a global scale.
