Are you passionate about making a difference within the local community?
Thank you for your interest in becoming a Green Doctor Trainee.
Groundwork’s Green Doctors help UK residents stay warm, stay well, and save money on household bills. We offer free, impartial advice to help people take control of their bills, save energy in the home, and access other services and initiatives available. We work with public and private partners to ensure support reaches those who need it most in local communities.
With support from the Cadent Foundation, Groundwork has established the Green Doctor Academy to attract diverse talent to take on Green Doctor roles, providing paid work placements, training, and qualifications for people who are new to the sector. We are now recruiting Green Doctor Trainees for a paid, 12-month work placement via the Academy. This placement is designed to provide the training, skills, and experience needed to deliver energy efficiency advice and support people in your local community. Up to 10 placements will be created across England to encourage diverse talent in the environment sector. No experience is necessary – just an appetite to learn, a motivation to help others, and an interest in pursuing a career in this field.
We’re particularly interested in applications from people who are from ethnically diverse backgrounds, living with a disability, from low-income households, or not currently in employment.
You will receive a good wage from a placement that helps the environment and provides support to people who really need it. The placement will provide all the skills, qualifications, and experience you need to start your career in the energy sector. There’ll also be opportunities to learn about potential careers in the environment sector and connect with others working in Green Doctor roles across the country.
This is a unique opportunity to try something new and take a first step on a career path where you can make a real difference. The environment sector needs you!
