ROLE DESCRIPTION: 3. Green Doctor Trainee Vacancy pack
Groundwork is now recruiting Green Doctor Trainees, via a brand new scheme that aims to encourage diverse talent to join the environment sector.
Through a 12-month paid work placement, Trainees will be provided with the training, skills and experience needed to deliver energy efficiency advice and support to people who are in fuel poverty in their local community. Trainees will join our Green Doctor teams who are helping residents stay warm, stay well, and save money on household bills. We offer free, impartial advice to help people take control of their bills, save energy in the home, and access other services and initiatives available.
No experience is necessary – just an appetite to learn, a motivation to help others, and an interest in pursuing a career in this field. We’re particularly interested in receiving applications from people who are from ethnically diverse backgrounds, who are living with a disability, or who are not currently in employment.
