Supercritical

Supercritical is a startup offering businesses the option to reach carbon net zero output. It measures a company’s carbon footprint, creates an actionable plan for reducing emissions, and recommends a portfolio of high-quality carbon removal offsets to buy. It does this through unprecedented transparency of price, availability and quality, so its customers know exactly how its carbon output is being reduced, and what effect this reduction will have.

• Ownership mentality: We relish autonomy and we create it for others. We are deeply curious and thrive on understanding the root cause of complex problems. We take ownership over our own and our team’s development by giving and soliciting direct and actionable feedback.
• Move fast: We identify the most important problems to solve and cut everything else. We test ideas early so we don’t waste time on dead ends. We default to action and deliver awesome results.
• Radiate positive energy: We come to problems with energy and passion. We nurture new ideas and engage positively in testing them. We inspire our colleagues to go further and are resilient to set backs. We recharge by taking time off. We are here for a great day, not a long day.
• Communicate proactively: We communicate simply and directly. We broadcast updates, insights and lessons learnt, especially when things haven’t gone to plan. We give as much context as possible so our teammates can make great decisions.
