A great opportunity has risen for a Regional Campaigns and Policy Officer developing and delivering our clean air influencing strategy in cities across the country.

You will work to ensure that our campaigns have cut through with political decision makers and push for ambitious policies for cleaner air, supporting local people living with lung conditions to ensure that their voices are heard. You will also look to build relationships with community organisations on the ground.
