Bjorn Everts

Bjorn is the Head of Nature Finance at GreenCollar. He is deeply passionate about unlocking long-term private sector finance for nature. His role focuses on developing and scaling a suite of innovative environmental market solutions — including NaturePlus®, a rigorous and science-based biodiversity credit scheme, as well as emerging markets for water quality, plastic reduction, and areas of overlap with carbon. Prior to his role at GreenCollar, he was the Head of Carbon Solutions at Tasman Environmental Markets, which services clients such as Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Lend Lease, and Rio Tinto. He has also served as the Manager of Stakeholder Relations for the Indigenous Land and Sea Corporation, a $2 billion fund set up to assist Indigenous people with the acquisition and management of land for economic, environmental, and cultural impact. Before that, Bjorn spent five years as the CEO of the Karrkad Kanjdji Trust, a multi-award-winning not-for-profit supporting Indigenous-led conservation and carbon abatement across northern Australia. He is committed to accelerating the transition to a decarbonised economy and a more environmentally and socially just society.
