About Edge
We are a full service global impact consultancy, with offices in Australia (Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide), New Zealand (Auckland), the US (Boston), and Chile (Santiago).
We combine science, strategy and storytelling in partnership with motivated leaders, organisations and industries to reimagine sustainability for positive impact.
To fully transition to a sustainable society, commitments and targets are no longer enough. The warning signs have become frequent emergencies and disasters. Record temperatures, devastated communities, fires, floods, and food shortages.
The message is clear: it’s time to step it up and deliver, today.
Transformation takes more than just one voice.
It’s why our team includes over 100 specialists of 26 different nationalities in 6 office locations across the globe. All with unique experiences and stories to tell.
The common thread amongst us all is our commitment to deliver impactful change - and to share that in ways everyone can understand.
As an Edger, you’ll have the chance to work with an amazing team of like-minded humans to generate a major positive influence on the world.
