Role
We’re looking for a pro-active, methodical and well-organised co-ordinator with excellent communication skills. We need someone who is passionate about supporting Highland communities to improve energy efficiency and tackle fuel poverty to be our Highland Energy Community Partnership Co-ordinator and Engagement Officer.
The Highland Energy Community Partnership (HECP) is an exciting new programme funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and coordinated by Changeworks, in partnership with six community partners across Highland. We’re looking for someone who can co-ordinate activities across all of our public sector and community partners while also ensuring activities meet the requirements of the National Lottery.
A key component of this role is engagement with the local installer network working to establish and communicate their needs through focused research and engagement activities. The partnership is ambitious in its aim to establish a local supply chain for retrofit activities and this role is key to identifying local solutions across the partnership.
The project will build collaboration across implementing partners and beyond, aiming to improve community knowledge of energy efficiency, provide advice to individual households and intensive support to those most in need while supporting the establishment of a local supply chain for domestic retrofit. Sharing learning across the partnership and beyond, you will support the partnership board in delivering this transformative five-year project.
We are looking for an individual who can combine their project experience, collaborative working style and innovative thinking to deliver the ambitions of the Highland Energy Community Partnership.
