About Amit Singh Yadav

I’m working in the climate space because I genuinely enjoy building things on the ground with farmers, field teams, and messy real-world constraints and turning them into programs that can scale and actually deliver climate impact.Right now, I’m an Associate Program Manager with Zomato Greening India Initiative, where I lead agroforestry operations across hectares in Maharashtra. I own execution for Parbhani district (500 hectares,~650 farmers), handling everything from farmer onboarding and field data collection to sapling logistics, plantation tracking, audits, and ongoing monitoring. A big part of my role is making sure systems, teams, and data work togetherLong term, I want to keep building my career in the carbon and nature-based solutions space. I’m interested in roles where I can stay close to execution while helping scale credible, data-driven climate initiatives.
