ABOUT THE ROLE

The Engagement Coordinator will join our Engagement Team at the forefront of involving local communities and schools in our exciting tree-planting & urban greening projects and engage people in learning about and taking action for trees and the environment. 

Do you love trees and want to learn more about them? Do you enjoy engaging directly with people of all ages and backgrounds? Are you passionate about connecting communities with environmental action? Then Trees for Cities needs you!

The Engagement team at Trees for Cities promotes and leads site-based activities and events for thousands of adults and children to participate in our tree planting programme that aims to plant, promote, and protect trees in public urban spaces.

Our Trees for Schools programme aims to transform urban school grounds into leafy green oases for both the children of today and for future generations. Our award-winning work in schools is delivery-focused and involves transforming school grounds into greener and healthier places to be.

This role involves establishing and maintaining school tree planting projects, climate-adapted gardens and food growing projects with pupils and supporting teaching staff to embed outdoor learning through trees and green spaces into the school curriculum. The coordinator will deliver school tree planting and educational workshops as well as conduct community consultation and coordinate events around public tree planting projects.

This role will join another Engagement Coordinator and the Engagement Manager in working closely with our Urban Forest, Build and Design, Monitoring and Impact, as well as Marketing and Communications teams to deliver multiple, overlapping projects with diverse London communities.

We are looking for an energetic and organised individual to support and coordinate our engagement activities for tree planting and outdoor classroom initiatives. This involves planning, delivering, and reporting back on community consultations, educational workshops, public tree planting events and other activities.
The role is public-facing, so we are looking for confident and adaptable communicators who are comfortable engaging residents in a range of communities, schools, and interest groups, and who are passionate about what we do at Trees for Cities.

We are seeking individuals who are happy to work hands-on outdoors in all weathers at a variety of locations, and over some weekends, with TOIL (time off in lieu), as well as being comfortable working indoors in an office environment. We want practical and highly organised people capable of coordinating event logistics and are keen to lead everything from small scale workshops to public community events involving hundreds of people.

We have roles available for people with varied relevant experience and a willingness to learn more. In return, we offer a warm and supportive team, in-the-job training and personal career planning.
