This is an exciting new project to enhance the skills and knowledge of our students and staff about the Carbon Zero Agenda in Construction and the Built Environment.
Are you passionate about improving awareness, skills and understanding of environmental issues within the sector? If so, this could be the role for you. We are looking for an enthusiastic Project Co-ordinator who is willing to join our team and share their knowledge and skills with young people and adults.
This role will involve organising opportunities for students to visit sites and observe modern methods of construction including retro-fits. You will work with College staff to keep courses up to date with current Carbon Zero best practice. You will plan, develop, and help deliver a series of events and workshops for students and staff, and public events for the College and JAST, that support the UK's Carbon Reduction Targets. In addition, the job will involve meeting other further and higher education bodies, learning about the work they are doing on the Carbon Zero Agenda, and bringing that knowledge into the College to inform and enrich student course for the future.
Ideally you will have a level 3 construction related qualification and have experience of working on construction sites. You should also be able to demonstrate a sound knowledge of the Zero Carbon Agenda for Construction. Whilst experience of delivering training/toolbox talks is desirable, support and training will be given to the successful candidate.
