We’re looking for an experienced partnership manager who’s passionate about supporting Highland communities, improving energy efficiency and tackling fuel poverty to manage our Highland Community Energy Partnership.

A strong communicator with experience of delivering innovative community projects you will oversee the day-to-day management and co-ordination of the Highland Energy Community Partnership (HECP) an exciting new programme funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and coordinated by Changeworks, in partnership with six community partners across Highland.

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 knowledge of low carbon solutions and experience of community development to design, deliver and co-ordinate energy efficiency activities which meet the long-term needs of communities across the partnership.

About us

Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and we were nominated for employer of the year by the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce this year. Our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.

At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.
