Cathleen WatersResearch and Development
“When I started my career in science it was a bit of a boys club where the prevailing reductionist scientific approach was expected to 'fix' a single problem, rather than addressing The Problem and all its complexities. Now look at us, society is valuing environmental services so any change is possible.... you just need to find the right path.”

Patrick NicolleBusiness Development
“I find the work GreenCollar does exciting and rewarding, but even more important is that I enjoy coming to work, with generous and energetic people. There is a great diversity of people at work, and so I feel as if I am constantly learning about all aspects of life. It didn't take me very long to realise that GreenCollar goals aligned seamlessly with my own. I am deeply interested in seeing how the market settles on the economic value of healthy environments, and which aspects of those environments are valued.”

Madeleine Wilcox-KerrProject Partnerships
“I relish the opportunity to work with our project partners to facilitate bottom-up land management changes and monitoring programs that contribute to our national climate targets. Bridging these two gaps is incredibly motivating.
Heading out to a project and seeing with my own eyes the positive effects responsible land management has on the vegetation, wildlife, soil and the ecosystem as a whole, gets me really excited.”

“
Ehren ThompsonField Program
“I love the fact that the work we do directly affects the supply of carbon credits, and is essential to ensuring the integrity of what we're selling.
I am also a big believer in the value of face-to-face, on-ground interactions with the local stakeholders and communities with which we have the privilege of working.
I grew up spending time in the bush camping and exploring, and this set me up to be passionate about the environment and doing what we can to look after it.”

“
Louise NottPortfolio Operations
“I believe that the ability to collect data at the project level is powerful in advancing our understanding of land management practices and the positive impacts that changes can have on the climate and local ecosystems. What really motivates me is that at GreenCollar our approach is grounded in science and there is a continual drive to push boundaries and solve environmental problems.”
