We believe everyone should be able to afford to keep their homes warm and safe, however, low incomes, high energy bills and poor energy efficiency currently deny this to millions of households across the UK. Never has this been more important than today.
NEA’s teams are friendly, knowledgeable and are dedicated to what we do. We are proud of our expertise and proud of the service we deliver to our clients.
We offer colleagues a friendly, rewarding workplace and the chance to build a worthwhile career with a not-for-profit organisation that is proud to make a genuine difference to people’s lives each and every day.
The role
National Energy Action (NEA) has recently secured funding to develop a new pilot project that aims to help local people reduce their heating bills, create healthier homes, and be ready for the transition to net zero. Over 2 years, a local retrofit hub will be established in 3 different locations, each with 2 members of staff who will help build trust, provide guidance and support, harness opportunities, and empower local people to achieve and benefit from change. The key will be to work at the heart of the community to encourage / support / enable householders to take up existing grants for energy efficiency measures but in addition, practical (funded) assistance will be available to enable retrofit works and to offer additional non-funded support as necessary. As well as the important benefits to participating households, this demonstration project will provide valuable insight into the attitudes of low-income householders towards energy efficiency improvements, highlighting challenges and barriers to retrofitting energy efficiency measures into the homes of those who need it most. NEA intends to utilise the knowledge gained (positives and negatives) to inform and influence those who make the decisions and design key national energy efficiency campaigns.
The Local Retrofit Support Officer will be one of two staff based in, and working to establish, a new local retrofit hub in Sheffield. We are also recruiting for a Local Retrofit Co-ordination Officer in the same location (job ref R70).

Working closely with the Local Retrofit Co-ordination Officer, they will also co-ordinate or deliver advice and events in the community to householders and/or others to raise awareness of retrofit practice and technologies as well as to inform and de-mystify.
NEA’s Local Retrofit Support Officer role sits in the Directorate of Homes and will report to the Community Retrofit Project Manager.

If you are an expert in seafood markets and supply chains, aquaculture and fisheries policies this is an amazing opportunity to use your knowledge to protect the future of our planet.
Our world is experiencing a catastrophic decline in biodiversity and food production is a major driver of this loss. At WWF we have a vision that our planet can sustainably produce the food needed to feed a growing global population without harming nature. With seafood representing a significant proportion of global animal protein consumed the need to deliver sustainably produced seafood is vital for us and our planet.
