The promotion of action against climate change and towards more sustainable practices is a key activity at the ION.

Key to this role is supporting evidence-based delivery of the ION’s strategy through creating and maintaining data systems, obtaining, collating, analysing, and presenting data, and producing statistics, infographics, and reports. You’ll ensure that submissions for future climate and sustainability requirements reflect Institute plans by taking a major role in coordinating data gathering, analysing the data and producing relevant charts, and drafting of submissions in close collaboration with the Institute and UCL leads as above. You will also be responsible for maintaining the Institute climate change and sustainability webpages, coordinating relevant workshops, and working groups, and lead on rolling out relevant training and events.

You’ll be knowledgeable about current issues, policy, and best practice in relation to climate change and sustainability in higher education, understand the intersection between climate change, health, and neuroscience, and be committed to the promotion of sustainability and climate change action. Experience of undertaking research activities and collating and analysing data, advanced Excel skills, and excellent project management skills are also essential for this role.

This role is eligible for hybrid working with a minimum of 40% of time on site.
