About the Gardeners’ Company

The Gardeners’ Company is a Livery Company – a membership organisation with a long history and close ties to the City of London. Today our members come from a wide range of backgrounds; all are united by a passion for horticulture, gardens and the natural world.

We were founded in mediaeval times – the first record of our organisation dates back to 1345 – by gardeners who practised their craft in the City of London. We were formally constituted with the grant of a Royal Charter in 1605.

The Gardeners' Company runs a busy events programme comprising lectures, talks and presentations by eminent horticulturalists; outings to explore and learn about beautiful gardens and landscapes; and formal dinners and lunches at historic City of London venues.

Through offering warm hospitality and this wide range of shared activities, the Company builds relationships among its members, as well as with partners from the horticulture industry and across the City of London. The resulting bonds of friendship and trust are the vital foundations upon which we carry out the remainder of our work. This work takes three forms.

First, as a small organisation, we run a limited number of in-house projects that focus on areas where we can achieve the greatest impact. Much of this involves nurturing the next generation of horticulturists. Our Schools Outreach programme uses engaging presentations and outings to introduce school children – from diverse ages and backgrounds – to the myriad career opportunities available to them in horticulture. We also support those later in their career journeys, offering awards and scholarships to student and apprentice horticulturists.

Second, we work with partners to incubate new horticultural initiatives. Our members generate ideas, attract collaborators and provide start-up resources (whether financial or in-kind), with the intention of establishing new projects that can flourish independently. In recent years we’ve helped to set up: a horticultural training programme (Future Gardeners); the habitat-development and advocacy work of Pollinating London Together; and the Livery Climate Action Group. 

(In parallel, the Company Charity – a separate entity, but one that is largely funded by donations from our members – awards close to £100k in grants to horticultural projects each year).

Third, and most ambitiously, we want to help bring about a coordinated response to the many challenges facing the horticulture sector. We want to act as a convenor and catalyst for change, bringing key players together for a much-needed national conversation. With our unique position – spanning horticulture, the City, the charity sector, and a wide range of other disciplines – we believe we are well-placed to play this role, and over the coming years, our efforts will increasingly focus on this important area of work.

About Julie’s Bicycle

Julie’s Bicycle (JB) is a pioneering not-for-profit organisation, mobilising the arts and culture to take action on the climate, nature and justice crisis. Founded by the music industry in 2007 and now working across the arts and culture, JB has partnered with over 2000 organisations in the UK and internationally. Combining cultural and environmental expertise, JB delivers high impact programmes and policy change to meet the climate crisis head-on.

Our work includes leadership development, policy development, research, strategic partnerships, in-depth consultancy, training, and a range of ground-breaking projects. A commitment to climate justice underpins all our work. We provide the creative community with the full range of tools, knowledge, and inspiration to act, and we run a rich programme of events and advocacy. JB runs a set of closely connected programmes of different types, lengths and scales. From our Music Programme to our Creative Climate Leadership Programme; our work across the cultural sector through Creative Green Projects and Partnerships; to our partnership with Arts Council England, explore our work.

This is an exciting time to join a team of 22 employees and additional external associates who, together, represent a unique mix of arts, culture, scientific, environmental and digital expertise.

We encourage people from any background to apply for this post. We are committed to creating a workforce which is representative of our society, and to bringing together those with a variety of skills and experiences to help shape what we do and how we work. We are particularly keen to hear from people of colour and those who self-identify as disabled.

Our Partnership with Arts Council England:

Julie’s Bicycle works with Arts Council England to deliver an ambitious Environmental Programme, providing resources, tools, and training to support cultural organisations to take climate action. The programme empowers the sector to rise to the challenges the climate crisis presents, and to accelerate and scale a collective response. Through the programme JB supports organisations to report their environmental impacts; produces events, webinars and information briefings, and runs a series of programme strands that develop climate literacy and leadership. Find out more.

A key part of the programme is JB’s Creative Climate Tools (CC Tools). These are a free carbon calculator that enables arts and cultural organisations to track their impact, record progress and make strategic changes in their environmental action. They include our unique Beyond Carbon impact tracker. Launched in 2010, the Creative Climate Tools are globally recognised as the leading online environmental reporting tools designed specifically for the arts and culture sector.

Our Partnership with IMPALA (European organisation for independent music companies and national associations):

We have been a key partner supporting IMPALA’s environmental sustainability programme since its launch in 2021. We helped shape the IMPALA Climate Charter and continue to sit on the IMPALA Environmental Sustainability Taskforce, where we provide expert advice on what a future low carbon recorded music sector could look like and how we get there. In 2022 we launched the IMPALA Carbon Calculator, powered by the CC Tools platform, a world-first bespoke platform for the SME record labels that are members of IMPALA to measure and report their GHG emissions. Over 150 independent labels have started their carbon footprint journey on the Tools, helping to shape an understanding of industry climate impact ‘hot spots’ and priorities, as well as bringing together stories of change. Alongside this, we deliver climate literacy and climate action training for and with IMPALA’s members across Europe, working to mobilise the independent recorded music sector for climate action. Find out more.

The Opportunity

The Environmental Coordinator plays a vital role within Julie’s Bicycle: both supporting creative organisations to report their environmental impacts with confidence, and analysing the data to support our team’s understanding of impact hotspots, priorities, challenges and opportunities for different creative sectors. The role focuses on providing Helpdesk support, as the first point of contact for organisations using our Creative Climate Tools (in particular organisations working with us through our Arts Council Programme and Music Programme, especially our IMPALA partnership). The Tools measure carbon emissions and organisational commitment to wider environmental improvement. Beyond answering queries, you’ll be shaping training webinars and materials for the organisations using the Tools. You’ll also be involved in the collective reporting and storytelling back to the creative community and wider stakeholders on what the data (both qualitative and quantitative) is telling us. Alongside the Helpdesk you will support Julie’s Bicycle to keep up to date on new methodologies and evolving best practices in carbon reporting and sustainability standards, and be involved in the development of the Tools platform.

The successful candidate will enjoy being in contact with many of the people and organisations that Julie’s Bicycle works with day-to-day, develop a frontline understanding of how creative organisations (especially SMEs) are understanding and managing their climate impacts, and dig into the environmental impact data of arts and culture organisations around the world. You will be data savvy, understand carbon footprint calculation methodologies, including the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, and be familiar with how organisations can manage environmental impacts across areas such as energy, waste, water, procurement, travel. You’ll be able to communicate really well – whether you are helping a cultural organisation or music label with a query; demonstrating the tools or how to use data on a webinar; or writing up a case study.

When not running the Helpdesk, you will be happy to test new features on the Tools, contribute to the development of our methodology, and research latest developments in best practice. You’ll proactively solve things yourself but be comfortable with escalating issues to more senior Julie’s Bicycle staff where needed – providing information to support decision-making. And in return, you’ll be supported to develop your skills and knowledge by the wider team. If you have a basic foundation in environmental management knowledge this role is a great opportunity to develop deeper skills in environmental consultancy and carbon accounting. The successful candidate will gain hands-on experience and join our friendly team in regular shared-learning sessions. And of course you’ll be interested in the role of culture in taking action on the climate, nature and justice crisis.

A note on AI:

While we understand that some people may use AI tools for accessibility (and recognise and support that many assistive technologies may use elements of AI), we ask candidates to consider what tools are most appropriate during the application process. For example, we recognise the value for many people of machine learning language tools like Grammarly. On the other hand we would discourage the use of generative AI tools in writing your application, as we’d like to understand your personal interest in working for Julie’s Bicycle, and be able to understand your non-AI-assisted communication skills just as they are. We also recognise that for many of the people and creative communities we work with, the rise of generative AI poses a threat to their livelihoods, while the environmental impacts of AI are only set to grow: this means we also have a responsibility as Julie’s Bicycle to consider where and when (and if) we use AI in our work.

Thank you for your interest in working at Julie’s Bicycle.
