Job description

There has never been a more important time to act on the environmental crisis.

In 2021, the UK hosted the UN climate conference in Glasgow, published its net zero strategy and passed a new Environment Act.

Since then, Green Alliance has played a crucial role in fighting back against rhetoric and campaigns seeking to delay or reverse environmental ambition.

In this critical general election year, the pressure is now on for all parties to embrace ambitious policy platforms on the environment.

Green Alliance aims to ensure that the government goes further and faster to meet environmental challenges and we work in partnership with others to do this.

We are recruiting a new political adviser to join our politics team.

Responsibilities will be varied, including but not exclusive to leading the political engagement work for various projects across Green Alliance, covering a broad range of environmental issues aimed at securing meaningful progress from the current Government, as well as putting climate and nature at the heart of the next general election; building relationships and networks across Westminster; leading advocacy interventions and providing political support to our policy experts.

The role requires a highly skilled individual who will help us build on our strong relationships and networks across Westminster, and to deliver ambitious political leadership on a range of issues.

This is a brilliant opportunity for an exceptional communicator who is adept at bringing people together around a shared vision, and who has the interpersonal skills to inspire and work across Green Alliance and our extensive network of partners.

Green Alliance is a charity, independent think tank and advocate, committed to achieving a greener future. We believe that ambitious political leadership is the route to change at the speed and scale necessary.

We play a central role in shaping the natural environment, low carbon and resource policy agendas in the UK and are known for our cross-party influence and the clarity of our insights.

We aim to create a supportive and collaborative culture that allows people to reach their full potential, and to provide an inclusive working environment where diversity is valued and everyone is able to thrive.
