Introducing SOS UK
 

SOS UK is a UK based charity transforming education so people protect the climate and nature.

Our education system helped cause the climate and nature crisis, but now we’re making it the solution. We are fighting to make sure everyone develops a commitment to protecting the earth and puts it to work – whether it’s at school, university or in their careers.

By empowering students and educators to build a better world, we can transform the lives of generations to come. In just a few years we have developed unstoppable student leaders. Behind these leaders every step of the way is the SOS UK community making sure students don’t have to fight for change alone. We unite people from every background, inside and outside education, because protecting our earth matters to each and every one of us.

• Developing constructive relationships with decision-makers and youth, climate, nature and education organisations to help achieve our campaign aims.

Liberation, equality and diversity

We are fully committed to equality of opportunity for everyone. Although this role is restricted to applicants aged 16–26 for lawful reasons, we welcome applications from everyone within this age range, regardless of disability, ethnicity, gender, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.

We recognise that people from Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic backgrounds, and disabled people, are underrepresented within our organisation and that there are often additional barriers for these groups when applying for roles within the charity sector and beyond.

We are committed to taking proactive steps to improve the diversity of our team. If you identify as a person of colour or as a disabled person, and you clearly demonstrate that you meet all of the essential criteria for this role, you may be shortlisted for a first stage interview through our Positive Action Interview Scheme.
