About CURACURA is a Canadian climatetech company developing electrochemical technology to reduce CO2 emissions from cement production. We split limestone into lime and pure CO2 for storage or use, cutting emissions by up to 85% while lowering energy use and manufacturing cost. CURA is building a 30,000 TPA commercial facility on line for 2028. Designed as a retrofit-ready solution, CURA's technology integrates with existing feedstocks, infrastructure, and operations. The company's founders are seasoned climatetech leaders, with experience in scaling technologies to reduce global CO2 emissions. CURA works with partners globally to accelerate the decarbonization of the cement industry.We are building a team of inventors, builders, and systems thinkers who thrive at the intersection of ambition and execution.CURA operates with a strong safety culture and all team members complete OHS orientation and role-specific safety training.The RoleCURA's technology produces a pure stream of CO2, but capturing its full climate and commercial value means getting that CO2 into permanent storage and turning verified emissions reductions into revenue. As Manager, Carbon Markets & Storage, you will own CURA's carbon value chain end to end: securing CO2 transport and storage for our projects, monetizing our environmental attribute credits (EACs), and positioning CURA's decarbonized cement within evolving carbon regulatory frameworks in Canada, Europe, and beyond. This is a commercially focused role at the heart of CURA's business model, working alongside our engineering team and reporting directly into the leadership team. You will be the company's expert on how carbon becomes value — from the compression skid to the credit registry to the purchase agreement.CO2 Transport & StorageIdentify, evaluate, and secure CO2 transport and storage pathways for CURA's projects, beginning in Alberta and expanding with CURA's project pipelineLead commercial negotiations and manage long-term relationships with CO2 storage providers, transport operators, and sequestration hub developersWork with CURA's process and chemical engineers to spec CO2management systems, including compression, conditioning, custody transfer, metering,
