About the role
The fossil fuel industry is unequivocally driving us towards a global climate crisis: we will not keep dangerous climate change at bay without halting our extraction of fossil-fuels. Our two climate justice campaigns were set up to challenge that. Our flagship campaign, Fossil Free Careers, is demanding that universities end the recruitment pipelines into the oil, gas, and mining industries. While the highly successful Fossil Free Campaign is calling on universities to move their money from fossil fuel investments to green energy; to stop the greenwash and to support a clean energy future for all.

We are committed to make reasonable adjustments to enable any candidate to show their suitability for a role within People & Planet.
