Careers at Agora Industry

Agora Industry develops strategies and policy instruments to encourage industrial transformation as early as the mid-2020s – a crucial step on the path to a climate-neutral economy. As an independent and non-partisan think tank and policy laboratory, we analyse upcoming challenges, share our knowledge with political decision-makers, economic actors, scientists and civil society stakeholders and enable a productive exchange of ideas.

We are a non-profit organisation funded by foundations and public institutions and hence are beholden neither to business nor to politics.

Our exclusive mission is to serve the climate.

Under the Agora Think Tanks umbrella, 180 mission-driven engineers, economists, political and data scientists, controllers as well as communication and IT experts work across four offices to address the entire range of transformation necessary to achieve climate neutrality. Below you will find our open positions to join our interdisciplinary and international team working on industry decarbonisation in Berlin, Brussels, Bangkok and Beijing.

To give you an idea of what happens after your application, we have outlined an example recruitment process for you. However, depending on the position the process will be adapted accordingly.
