Head of Sustainability

For over 10 years, NTU has consistently ranked as a first-class university in the People and Planet University League, the UK's only comprehensive and independent league table of universities ranked by environmental and ethical performance. We have also been ranked second most sustainable university in the world in the UI Green Metric World University Rankings, out of over 900 institutions.

This is an exciting time to join NTU as we begin a new capital development period with significant investment in Net Zero Carbon projects and be instrumental in making a difference to both our environmental footprint and support the wider carbon neutral ambitions of Nottingham.

As our Head of Sustainability, you will be our leading expert in the delivery of NTU’s strategic KPI, Net Zero Carbon 2040 commitment, ensuring ownership and delivery across the University, as well as with external partners, to inform and educate on issues related to climate change and sustainability.

As an active member of the Estates Directorate Senior Management Team, you will provide vision, and direction via collaboration across all Estates function.

If you have got strong analytical skills, knowledge and passion for sustainability issues, and want to make a measurable impact, we want to hear from you. 

We actively work across our campuses to put sustainability at the heart of everything we do. We draw on the diverse expertise of our colleagues, students, and partners to collaborate in finding sustainable solutions to global challenges to maintain our position as a pioneering university and we would love for you to join us on this journey.
