Bristol Climate & Nature Partnership brings together its 1,300+ member organisations to take action towards a zero carbon, nature-rich and social just future for our city and region.

We are looking for a Senior Project Coordinator to help deliver the Community Climate Action Project, one of our priority projects, whilst the current Senior Coordinator is on maternity leave.

The Community Climate Action Project is an ambitious, citywide programme funded by the National Lottery’s Climate Action Fund. It demonstrates the important role communities can play in achieving the city’s climate and nature ambitions, whilst also improving people’s quality of life. The Senior Coordinator will collaborate with over 20 community-based organisations, strategic partners, and climate, nature, and equity partners, working closely with the Head of Community Partnerships to provide central coordination for the project.

Day-to-day activities include liaising with project partners to track activities, organising meetings, facilitating project activities (events, workshops, commissioned work), working with the communications team to develop outreach materials, supporting monitoring and evaluation, and connecting with other city-wide and regional strategic projects that enhance or create new opportunities for community climate action plans.

The ideal candidate will have experience working with the voluntary, community, and social enterprise sector, with an awareness and sensitivity to manage community-led projects, identifying synergies that maximize benefits for the communities involved.

This post is offered on a fixed-term basis, to provide maternity cover.

About the role

• Fixed term (10 months) with potential extension to 12 months
• 0.8 FTE (28 hours per week)
• Salary: £31,500 – £33,500 pro-rata (dependent on experience)
• Interviews scheduled for 19 or 20 May in central Bristol. Second stage, if needed, likely in the week of 26 May.
