ABOUT WOLT

At Wolt, we create technology that brings joy, simplicity and earnings to the neighborhoods of the world. In 2014 we started with

delivery of restaurant food. Now we’re building the delivery of (almost) everything and you’ll find us in over 500 cities in 30

countries around the world. In 2022 we joined forces with DoorDash and together we keep on dreaming big and expanding across the

globe.

Working at Wolt isn’t always easy, but it’s definitely exciting. Here you’ll learn more, build more, and ship more than in most

other companies. You’ll be challenged a lot, but also have a lot of fun on the way. So, if you’re a self-starter with drive and

entrepreneurial spirit, this could be the ride of your life.

DoorDash's mission is to grow and empower local economies — and in Europe, that mission comes to life through two of the

continent's most dynamic consumer brands: Wolt and Deliveroo. Together, they bring an extraordinary range of products to people's

doors, from restaurant meals and groceries to electronics, beauty, pet supplies, pharmaceuticals and more. Underpinning it all is

a broad and ambitious technology platform spanning logistics, retail software, financial solutions and autonomous delivery, as

well as Wolt's own grocery retail operation under the Wolt Market brand. With thousands of merchant partners across dozens of

European markets, the business is growing fast — and the regulatory landscape is growing more complex with it. To help us navigate

this evolving environment, we are looking for a Director of Policy Development to join the team, working across our European and

Middle Eastern operations at Wolt and Deliveroo.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for an experienced policy professional to join the Global Policy Team’s Policy Development and Research Group. The

Director level role will shape the legal and regulatory framework for a new sector of the economy at a pivotal moment in Europe

and the Middle East. This expansive role will focus on legislative analysis, developing our policy positions with input from

cross-functional business teams, and strategic input on our policy priorities. You will work closely with Policy Team members

across Europe and the Middle East and stakeholders across the company to develop and support the adoption of policies that best

serve couriers, merchants, and consumers.

WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING

Owning and driving Wolt and Deliveroo's regulatory analysis on high-impact legislative proposals across Europe and the Middle

East — translating complex law-making processes into clear business, operational and commercial outcomes for senior leadership.

Bringing sharp legal and legislative expertise to our most ambiguous and high-stakes regulatory challenges — particularly

around the future of work for courier partners — and making sound judgments with incomplete information under time pressure.

Acting as a strategic engine of the policy development function: partnering with our Public Affairs Team to understand the

political landscape and how we can best advance our priorities through legislative and regulatory processes. .

Building and driving alignment across Legal, Strategy & Operations, Product, Finance and Communications, acting as the

connective tissue between policy and the business functions that need to act on it.

As needed, supporting our Public Affairs Team in external engagement with policymakers, regulators, industry groups, and other

stakeholders.

Engaging with academics, think tanks, and other stakeholders to build thought leadership in cutting-edge policy issues —

shaping the broader policy environment and building our credibility as a constructive voice in the regulatory debate.

Balancing legal, operational and financial trade-offs when advising on regulatory risk, ensuring that our positions are not

only legally sound but commercially realistic and executable at scale.

WE’RE EXCITED ABOUT YOU BECAUSE…

10+ years of professional experience from the legal field and/or government or policy development in an international setting,

with a demonstrated record of success focusing on a wide range of legislative and regulatory issues. In-house experience is

considered an advantage.

Master of Laws degree from a reputable university in the EU, or strong legal experience.
Previous professional exposure to digital platforms, mobile apps or software solutions.
A self-starter who isn’t afraid to roll up their sleeves no matter the task.
Fluency in English, along with excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
You have experience working in a global business environment, demonstrating the ability to operate with strong cross-cultural

competence and flexibility with working hours – plus the ability to occasionally travel to other cities in Europe, as well as

the U.S. to further global collaboration across the team.

Bonus points for experience in employment and labour law, in international settings at a law firm, in-house at a technology

company, and/or with a U.S.-based company.

CDR Demand and Market Development Lead

Carbon Gap•Brussels

OUR MISSION “We need to massively scale up carbon dioxide removal,” said Johan Rockström, Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and lead author of the Planetary Boundaries framework, at the 2025 UN Climate Summit in New York. More specifically, carbon dioxide removal (CDR – the ‘net’ part of ‘net zero') must scale from near-zero today to billions of tonnes by 2050. The growth rate this implies is faster than any other climate technology is expected to achieve or has achieved in the past. This cannot be achieved without government policy, and the role Europe must play in creating that policy cannot be overstated. Carbon Gap, Europe’s leading CDR not-for-profit, exists to ensure Europe’s contribution is maximised. A team of ~20 CDR policy experts based primarily between Brussels and London, we work closely with leading decision-makers right across Europe to design and shape the policies that are required to support CDR’s scale-up – from R&D funding to government purchasing programmes, and from national targets to standards and certification. Our work has been covered by publications including the Financial Times, Bloomberg, and the Wall Street Journal. Carbon Gap alumni have progressed to exciting roles in government, the private sector, and academia. THE ROLE Location: Brussels Type: Full-time Reporting to: Chief Policy Officer We are looking for a Brussels-based CDR Demand and Market Development Lead who will help design and advance policy and market mechanisms that create durable demand for high-integrity carbon dioxide removal across Europe. Policy-driven demand is critical to CDR scale-up because long-term market growth will depend not only on innovation and supply, but on credible demand signals that improve investability, reduce risk, and unlock public and private capital. The role sits at the intersection of public policy, market design, and private-sector procurement. It will contribute to Carbon Gap’s work on compliance-related and other policy-driven demand mechanisms for carbon removal, with a particular focus on how regulation, public demand, and market structures can create durable deployment signals. This includes work on: * EU-level demand mechanisms, including compliance market integration, public procurement, and EU purchasing programmes or platforms * Enabling public-private partnerships for near-term scaling of CDR * Market structures that improve project economics and enable scale The role is suited to someone who understands how policy frameworks interact with real-world investment decisions, and who can analyse how demand signals affect project development, financing conditions, and market growth. You will work closely with Carbon Gap’s EU policy team and with partners across government, industry, and the carbon removal ecosystem. RESPONSIBILITIES 1) Demand-side CDR policy * Lead Carbon Gap’s Brussels work on policy and market mechanisms that can generate durable demand for high-integrity CDR across Europe. * Shape demand-side approaches across EU and Member State contexts, including public procurement, public-private demand mechanisms, compliance-related pathways, and relevant industrial, innovation, and commercialisation frameworks. * Assess how policy design choices affect bankability, financing conditions, and deployment. * Produce clear, decision-useful outputs for policy development and external engagement, including briefings, recommendations, and meeting materials. 2) Market analysis and insight * Analyse value chains, project economics, offtake dynamics, and deployment pathways across CDR approaches. * Generate insights on how policy and market conditions affect demand, investment incentives, and the flow of public and private capital. * Develop datasets, visualisations, and other analytical outputs that strengthen Carbon Gap’s policy work and external positioning. 3) Stakeholder engagement and external influence * Build trusted relationships across EU institutions, Member State governments, project developers, buyers, financial institutions, and civil society. * Represent Carbon Gap in external meetings and discussions in Brussels and beyond. * Design and deliver workshops, consultations, and convenings that connect policy design with market realities. * Use stakeholder engagement to test, refine, and advance Carbon Gap’s positions on policy-driven CDR demand. YOUR PROFILE You have strong analytical judgement, are comfortable making decisions with imperfect information, and can operate effectively in a technically and politically dynamic environment. You are able to reason clearly about how policy choices affect markets, investment behaviour, and project deployment. You combine structured problem-solving with strong external judgement. You can build productive relationships with a wide range of actors, simplify complex issues, and turn analysis into practical action. You do not need to be a carbon removal specialist already. But you should bring a solid grounding in climate, energy, industrial, or adjacent policy, and enough familiarity with Brussels and EU policymaking to operate credibly in the role. We care most about how you think, how you prioritise, and whether you can turn strategy into real-world outcomes. Essential experience and skills * 4–6+ years of experience in roles involving complex analysis, stakeholder engagement, and strategic execution, for example in public policy, government affairs, consulting, climate strategy, finance, or market analysis. * Strong analytical and problem-solving ability, including comfort working with imperfect or incomplete data to generate policy-relevant insights. * Familiarity with market dynamics, including the ability to reason about bankability, financing conditions, investment incentives, and project economics. * Ability to operate independently, drive work forward with limited oversight, and engage credibly with senior policymakers, market actors, and other stakeholders. * Ability to structure and use data in a practical way, including basic analysis in Excel, data visualisation, and use of data to support decision-making. * Excellent writing and synthesis skills, with the ability to translate complex policy and market issues into clear, decision-useful outputs. * Professional fluency in English. Strong Plus * Experience in one or more areas such as climate policy, carbon markets, industrial decarbonisation, innovation funding, procurement, or infrastructure policy. * Familiarity with EU policy processes and institutions. * Experience with demand-side policy instruments, regulated climate policy frameworks, project economics, climate or project finance, procurement design, or offtake and other contracting mechanisms relevant to scaling carbon removal. * Experience with data analysis, modelling, or data visualisation tools beyond Excel, such as Python or Power BI. * Strong visual communication skills, including the ability to translate complex analysis into clear presentations, charts, and tables for policy discussions. WHAT WE OFFER * A mission-driven role with meaningful responsibility and visibility in a high-impact policy space. * Competitive compensation, benchmarked to the level and scope of the role. * Strong professional development support, including centralised training, a personal learning and development budget, and opportunities to publish, lead projects, work with leading experts, and engage directly with policymakers and stakeholders. * A values-driven team culture emphasising empowerment, accountability, and intellectual honesty. Carbon Gap is committed to building an inclusive team. We strongly encourage applications from candidates who are underrepresented in the climate and carbon removal ecosystem. You do not need to meet every listed requirement to apply - if this role aligns with your skills and motivation, we would like to hear from you. How to apply Please submit: * A CV * A short cover note explaining why this role, why Carbon Gap, and what you would prioritise in the first 6 months * 1-2 work samples, for example a policy memo, briefing, consultation response, slide deck, market analysis, or similar An overview of the hiring process * 15-minute screening call * 45-minute fit interview with two senior colleagues * 45-minute practical interview, involving a case study
