Overview

If you’re passionate about the environment and driven by a sense of responsibility to shape a more sustainable future, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact where it matters most—education.

We’re looking for someone who not only believes in sustainability but lives it—someone ready to take that passion and channel it into action. In this role, you’ll be more than a champion of green values; you’ll become a catalyst for cultural change. You’ll guide our organisation and partners toward more sustainable practices and inspire our staff and learners to think differently about their place in the world.

This is your chance to embed sustainability into the heart of what we do—across our business, our partners, and most importantly, in the minds of future changemakers.

You will offer advice and guidance to leaders, managers, staff and learners to ensure environmental compliance across ACT/ALS and our partners.

The role fits within the Facilities Team reporting to the Facilities Manager.

This is a Hybrid role – 2 days working from home and 3 days working onsite.

What we are looking for:

  • At least 3 years’ experience in an environmental/sustainability role within a busy organisation
  • Experience of managing and monitoring an EMS and other associated environmental systems
  • IEMA qualification and at least associate membership of IEMA
    Knowledge of environment legislation
    Excellent IT skills
  • Experience of ISO14001 accreditation
  • Team player with ability to work on own initiative
  • Experience of resource monitoring (energy, waste, transport)
  • A full driving licence is essential
  • ACT is committed to promoting the Welsh language for both staff and learners, and whilst it is not considered essential criteria, the ability to speak Welsh is desirable for this role.

What you get in return:

  • Excellent professional development opportunities
  • Generous holiday package (up to 45 days per year)
  • E-learning platform available to all staff.
  • Staff counselling sessions
  • Mental Health First Aider
  • Wellbeing initiatives
  • Bi-annual performance reviews
  • Staff Council
  • Flexible and hybrid working
