About us

Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and we were nominated for employer of the year by the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce this year. Our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.

At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.

We are seeking a well organised, committed and proactive person, who is interested in people, to join our small and supportive team. If you enjoy variety, but are always aware of making sure things get done, and want to make a real difference in a small environmental charity, we would love to hear from you.

This role leads on the administrative and office functions of APRS, Scotland’s countryside charity, which employs three people. As a small charity, making a big impact, this role will allow you to grow and take on responsibility. Our small size means that we can be fleet of foot and take opportunities so there is always variety and challenge. But, above all, this role needs a steady hand and an eye for detail, ensuring that we deliver our reporting, governance and finance requirements, and manage our relationship with supporters, so that we can effectively deliver on our mission.

We are seeking a person who enjoys being part of a team but can also work independently, and with a focus on what matters for the smooth running of the organisation.

It’s our centenary next year and so this is a really exciting time to be joining APRS. We have ambitions for the future, and this post plays an absolutely central role. So if you are looking for rewarding work, with good colleagues, in an environmental charity; and you want to make a difference to Scotland’s landscapes and countryside – please get in touch.

We are passionate about delivering positive environmental and social change in Scotland and are seeking candidates who have a similar passion to help us deliver and grow our activities.
