Let us tell you about who we are, what we’re looking and for what we can offer.

FEL is changing our world for the better, project by project. We show people how to make everyday changes that help them, their communities, and the planet thrive. Our approach is grounded, practical, and built on local knowledge. We work collaboratively with communities and partners to create positive social and environmental impact.

At FEL Scotland, we help people, their communities, and the planet thrive. We believe powerful change is possible—and each of us has a role in making it happen. From bikes to local food to reuse to renewable energy, our projects show how everyday action adds up to big impacts.

About the Role

We have an exciting new project starting this October – Powering Community Sport. The project aims to support community sports clubs across Forth Valley to develop community-owned renewable energy projects that reduce energy costs and generate long-term community benefit. Community sports clubs manage important local assets, including clubhouses, pavilions, changing facilities and floodlighting. Many face rising energy costs, ageing infrastructure and limited capacity to explore renewable energy opportunities, despite often having suitable sites for solar and battery storage. The project responds to clear demand from clubs and partners across the region.

As our Project Officer, you will lead engagement with sports clubs across Forth Valley and the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park area, helping them participate in a dedicated sports club energy and sustainability programme linked to FEL's wider community energy work.

You will identify and recruit sports clubs into the programme, build strong relationships with club representatives, and provide ongoing support to help clubs remain engaged and achieve positive outcomes. You will act as the main day-to-day contact for participating clubs, helping them navigate opportunities to reduce energy costs, improve energy efficiency, access funding, strengthen community benefits, and contribute to local climate action.

Working closely with FEL colleagues and a Community Renewables Officer supported by Community Energy Scotland, you will coordinate activities that help clubs understand the benefits of sustainable energy practices and access wider opportunities available through community energy initiatives.

The role will involve organising and delivering workshops, events and engagement activities, supporting Club Energy Champions, gathering evidence of impact, and maintaining effective partnerships with clubs, communities and stakeholders.

While the role will provide light-touch energy awareness advice and signposting, specialist household energy enquiries will be referred to FEL's Home Energy Advice Team where appropriate.

• Project Delivery – you will be working on Projects and in cross-disciplinary teams. You will be working within a Project Management framework to ensure we deliver for students and with students.

Your Superpowers

• Insightful & Student-Focused – You connect student feedback with real academic change, making sure reps feel heard and empowered.
• Skilled Communicator – Whether you’re chatting with students, University staff, or external partners, you adapt your approach to build strong, effective relationships.
• Proactive & Organised – You’re a multitasker who thrives on juggling projects, planning big events, and keeping things running smoothly.
• Curious & Impact-Driven – You love turning data and insights into action, using evidence to influence decision-making and improve the academic experience.

VALUES YOU’LL Champion

• Inclusivity: Make sure all our activities and communications are welcoming and make every student feel valued.
• Student Focused: Keep student needs at the heart of everything you do, building a vibrant and supportive community.
• Team Spirit: Collaborate effectively with staff, officers and students, creating a positive and engaging environment.

If you’re fired up about student voice and want to help shape a university experience where everyone feels heard, supported and celebrated – we’d love to hear from you. You don’t need to tick every single box, and we welcome lived experience as well as professional expertise.

About Us

We’re Heriot-Watt University Student Union, an independent charity buzzing with energy, driven by and for our students. We’re all about doing good, that’s why all surplus funds generated through Liberty’s Café, Geordies Bar and the Student Union Shop are channelled straight back into crucial student support services like our Advice Hub. So, yes, we're a charity, but we also mean business.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

At HWUnion, diversity isn’t just celebrated; it’s our strength. We thrive by bringing together voices from all walks of life, and we’re excited for you to help us champion this mission. At HWUnion, you’ll find more than just a job - you’ll find a community eager to welcome your talents. Let’s do something great together.
