The African Centre For Technology Studies Cover Letter

Dear The African Centre for Technology Studies, I am writing in regards to the advertised position for a Research Fellow in Climate Change and Business. I am immensely passionate about this topic and firmly believe that businesses need to take greater responsibility in addressing climate change. I have a Masters in Environmental Studies from the University of Cape Town and have been working in the field of climate change and sustainability for the past 5 years. In my current role as Sustainability Manager for a large manufacturing company, I have been responsible for putting in place policies and procedures to reduce our environmental impact. I have also been involved in numerous climate change mitigation projects, both in South Africa and internationally. I am confident that I have the skills and experience required for this position and would be a valuable asset to your team. I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to important research that can help businesses to become more sustainable and help to mitigate the effects of climate change. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Helga Chauke
