Do you want to use your people skills and problem-solving mindset to help tackle the climate and cost-of-living crisis?
Our Power is looking for an Energy Advice Coordinator to deliver our energy and retrofit advice work, supporting Norwich residents to save energy, keep their home comfortable and healthy, and benefit from green technologies like solar and heat pumps.
You will be a good listener with a practical, problem-solving approach and a background in helping people. This experience could have been gained in a variety of contexts, for example casework, community work, in-depth customer support or practical repair jobs. You should have a strong interest in energy efficiency or renewable energy and a willingness to learn more about these topics and share your knowledge. Prior experience in a related field would be an advantage, but training will be provided.
Our community interest company (CIC) has been active for just under two years, and we have ambitious plans to help communities take action for a more people-powered and resilient energy system. As our main energy advisor working with a network of volunteers, you’ll have a key role in our day-to-day work. You’ll also be encouraged to contribute ideas and get involved as we develop wider work on green homes, heat decarbonisation and community-owned solar.
It’s an exciting time for community energy, with lots of opportunities likely to emerge over the next few years. Join us and help build a people-powered energy future for Norwich!
We support flexible working and will consider all reasonable requests. This role requires some evening and weekend working.
