■Recruitment Background
To reduce our environmental impact and achieve a net-positive impact, we have set the following targets: net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050; a 90% reduction in emissions from energy use at our company-operated facilities (such as stores and major offices) by 2030; and a 20% reduction in emissions* associated with the production of raw materials, fabric manufacturing, and garment sewing.
To achieve these goals, we are working to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the production of natural raw materials (such as cotton, wool, and cashmere)—a key environmental hotspot in our supply chain—by introducing sustainable agricultural and livestock practices and restoring natural ecosystems.We are also working to achieve a net-positive business through nature-based solutions (NbS), such as “Beyond Value Chain Mitigation,” which is exemplified by carbon removal through forest restoration. For this position, we are seeking a candidate with professional experience and skills related to climate change and biodiversity who can work with us to advance NbS initiatives.
