In less than a decade, ManoMano has become a key player in the home improvement and renovation sector.
Founded in France in 2013 by two French DIY enthusiasts amazed at the lack of digitalization in the market, ManoMano is now present in 6 European countries (France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Germany, UK), federates over 5,000 sellers and now offers the widest range of DIY and gardening products online (+19 million products references).
Motivated by the prospect of improving the living environment of their customers and convinced of the importance of the home market for sustainable consumption habits, the ManoMano teams want to help write a new page in their industry, which is struggling to reform itself. ManoMano brings to a highly technical world the power of its sector expertise, combined with that of data and digital in all its dimensions, to offer our customers easy access to innovative advice, products and services 100% online.
The ambition of the Founders and, above all, of Manas & Manos? To accompany this sector transformation with a strong culture of boldness, in an ingenious and frugal organization that places people and teams at the heart of the company's development.
Context
As a key role for the implementation of ManoMano’s global responsibility strategy, we are looking for our CSR and Carbon manager, whose mandate is to lead and coordinate our global CSR strategy (mid-term and long-term) with a specific focus on our climate part to ensure we achieve our 2030 Science Based Targets commitments.
Initiated nearly 4 years ago, our CSR strategy, named Manolmpact, is now embedded within the company. This transformation project reflects our commitment to working hand in hand with all our stakeholders — employees, business partners, and customers — to ensure that our values of responsibility towards people and the planet are at the heart of our activities.
Our CSR strategy is organized around 4 mains pillars:
- Climate = Doing our part in the fight against climate change
- Offer = Building a responsible offer to support change
- Social = Putting people at the heart of the business project
- Governance = Building a sustainable and resilient model

Missions
As a CSR coordinator, you will :
- Participate in the promotion of our CSR strategy, internally and externally. In particular, you will be in charge of writing and publishing our annual ManoImpact report.
- Be in charge of all our annual reporting regarding CSR indicators for our main external stakeholders : investors, banks.
- Coordinate the implementation of the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) for ManoMano who will have to publish in 2026 its 1st report. To do so, you will implement a dedicated reporting tool, put in place and animate the internal task force to ensure an efficient reporting within contributors, and drive the in-depth study needed on issues not covered yet to be compliant. More precisely regarding our planet topics, as a carbon manager, you will :
- Coordinate the global carbon footprint assessment of ManoMano to produce it in 2 formats (GHG Protocol and similar to Bilan CarboneⓇ). You will coordinate the data collection with the internal stakeholders and make the calculations, using our dedicated tool (Sweep or equivalent).
- Monitor and pilot our carbon footprint trajectory and more precisely our 4 SBTi targets, as requested by our SBTi commitment (annual report and gap analysis monitoring).
- Coordinate on all carbon-reduction initiatives across the company, to ensure ManoMano achieve its SBTi targets: coordination of our different carbon reduction programs and efforts across our key departments and/or implementation of relevant workshops to identify new levers of action.
- Lead specific planet actions when carbon accountability/LCA expertise is needed. For example, you will be in charge of the deployment of the Carbon Score methodologies. The Carbon Score is a rating from A to E that allows users to easily and intuitively compare the carbon impact of similar products of ManoMano’s catalog, based on a simplified LCA.
- Animate and engage ManoMano’s internal climate community to ensure all employees have the right level of understanding when it comes to climate topics and are in capacity to implement our climate strategy.
