Green New Deal Rising is looking for a Scotland Campaigner who can lead our campaigning in Scotland in the run up to the 2026 Holyrood elections.

Green New Deal Rising is building a movement of young people from every part of the UK to fight for a response to the climate crisis that totally transforms our economy to deliver a safe climate and fairer society. We believe in people power, and through a combination of disrupting the political system and reaching into our communities, we plan to make the Green New Deal an era-defining issue. Over the last few years, we have built our movement in Scotland, running the SNP: No More Talk campaign until Spring 2024.

This year, we’re pushing harder than ever to build people and political power to win a Green New Deal. We’re ramping up our Scotland campaign in the run up to the 2026 Holyrood elections, where we will make our generation’s voice heard - climate justice must be the number one priority for a new Scottish government.

This role will lead our campaigning outputs in Scotland, develop our campaign strategy and organise our local teams to take sustained action over the next 12 months leading up to the election. You will be an excellent communicator, with a hunger to get into the news cycle and change the agenda and a good understanding of Scottish politics and devolution. You will be a champion of people power and excited about engaging and building relationships with a wide range of people, from volunteers to MSPs.
