We’re responding to accelerating climate change across all areas of our business, designing out waste and pollution, establishing a sustainable supply chain and switching to the use of renewable resources. We’ve set ourselves tough energy reduction targets to reduce our fossil fuel use as part of our commitment to achieve a net zero carbon position by 2030. Attached you will find a case study which provides insight into the progress we have made so far.
We are looking for a Renewable Energy Project Manager to join us on a permanent basis to continue the great work already completed over the last 10 years. Contractually based at any of our South West hubs, we support hybrid working and are keen to agree working arrangements which strike the right balance for you and the Trust. Regular travel will be required with occasional overnight stays with travel expenses covered.
We are offering a starting salary of £43,407.00
What it's like to work here:You’ll be part of a wave of positive action, joining an established Renewable Energy programme which is leading the challenge of delivering low carbon technology in the Heritage sector. We work in the most sensitive landscapes, within nationally treasured buildings, installing cutting edge infrastructure to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.
What you'll be doing:Working within the Renewable Heat team which has been tasked with removing fossil fuel heating from our highest emitting buildings by 2030 and is funded by a ring-fenced budget of £45 million.
You will be delivering low carbon heat projects at our properties using our project management framework which is closely aligned with the APM process. You will lead all stages of the project lifecycle for the delivery of heat pump systems (ground source, water source and air source) and biomass heating systems.
You’ll ensure both internal and external stakeholders are motivated, well informed and that proper provision is in place to deliver projects to time, quality and budget. Your responsibility will run until the project is handed over to the property and the system is operating as part of business as usual.
