Are you looking for an opportunity to influence climate and sustainability action in a big organisation?

If you are organised and great with data, you may have what we are looking for to support our sustainability team to deliver our challenging carbon emission reduction targets.

You will be working in an established Sustainability team, where we work with staff and students from across the university to reduce the environmental impact of our activities.
