We are looking for an enthusiastic Zero Emissions Network Officer to support the delivery of the third round of the ‘Mayors Air Quality Fund’ funded Zero Emissions Network project.

The role will primarily involve working with and supporting businesses in the south of Islington to take action to reduce their negative impacts on air quality as well as other related environmental impacts. By creating a self-sustaining network, the project will contribute towards reducing local traffic and resulting air pollution.

You will act as an ambassador for the programme and will be responsible for achieving the target number of businesses for the programme.

You will provide technical support to businesses in delivering improvements in transport-related emissions as well as facilitating businesses to engage in wider environmental benefits.

This is a partnership project and the post holder will be expected to work closely with ZEN partners in LB Hackney and Tower Hamlets.
