Charity registered in Scotland SC042244

South Seeds is a community led organisation on Victoria Road, in the heart of Glasgow’s Southside. We work in partnership to improve the look and feel of the area. We support residents to lead more sustainable lives and we support agencies and local organisations to provide services which help residents lead sustainable lives. In an area just over a square mile, with 30,000 residents mainly living in Victorian tenement, we have been able to assist residents to reduce domestic energy consumption, grow vegetables, consider active travel options and reduce waste. Our vision is that Glasgow’s Southside becomes a real low carbon area through promotion of the sharing economy and reducing the barriers to leading a more sustainable life. linkedin.com/company/south-seeds

Current vacancies

Energy officer (temporary)

  • Part time
  • £24,700 pro-rata
  • On site: Glasgow
  • Closing 22nd July 2026

South Seeds is looking for someone who knows the Southside of Glasgow well and is good with people. We are not necessarily looking for someone who has worked in the energy field. Our team will train the successful candidate to become an experienced energy officer.

We are however looking for someone who has a common-sense approach to energy in the home and understands the difference between heating (often gas) and lighting (always electricity) and is willing to be mentored to work with clients to reduce their gas and electricity bills. We want someone who can start straight away, is ready to learn and is up for fitting into an existing team.
