NEA, the national fuel poverty and energy efficiency charity, is recruiting for an Energy Advisor.

NEA aims to eradicate fuel poverty and promote energy efficiency to low-income and other vulnerable households through working in partnership with central and local government, fuel utilities, the health sector, consumer groups and NGOs.  

This post provides an exciting and rewarding opportunity to help the charity build its profile amongst regional stakeholders whilst delivering projects that seek to bring an end to fuel poverty and to the misery of cold homes that is experienced by over 6.5 million households in the UK. 

NEA’s Energy Advisors are empathetic, polite and have good listening skills but are also knowledgeable, assertive and confident.  Their main role is to provide one to one advice to clients referred through the charity’s Warm and Safe Homes helpline and to deliver energy advice presentations to groups.  They also get involved in a range of tasks to support these activities.  Energy Advisors sit within the Operations Directorate and are part of a dynamic and caring team of professionals who go the extra mile to support their clients, some of whom may be in difficult circumstances. 

Whilst experience of providing advice to householders and knowledge of energy efficiency would be advantageous, they are not essential as NEA will provide full training to the successful candidate.

This is a full-time role - 37 hours per week Monday to Friday on a flexi-time basis.

We are looking to appoint an Energy Advisor based in the South-West region of England.  All staff are currently working from home on a temporary basis and applications are invited from any location within the South-West. 

The job description which you will find on NEA’s website provides a list of the duties of the post and the person specification provides the list of essential and desirable criteria.

• Designing a selection process to recruit 8-10 local peacebuilders as the campaign team
• Developing a campaign co-creation process, enabling the campaign team to identify the problems in the peacebuilding system, explore solutions, and craft campaign messages
• Identify and work closely with a creative agency to support the visual identity and narrative formulation of the campaign
• Support all aspects of the implementation of the campaign, ensuring that it has global reach
• Provide regular ‘touch points’ for the campaign team to share ideas and brainstorm together
• Facilitate any training and coaching necessary for the campaign team
• Organising in-person events for the global campaign team to meet periodically and to participate in other global meetings

The ideal candidate will be a true campaigner, ideally with a lived experience of conflict, who will have a strong background in supporting national or international campaigns. You will have excellent project management and communication skills, strong written skills, excellent interpersonal and team working skills and will be highly organised. Fluency in a second language (French, Spanish or Arabic) would be a bonus.

This position can be based anywhere globally (so long as there is a reasonable internet connection!), and we strongly encourage campaigners from the Global South to apply. Due to the part time and flexible nature of the role, we expect the role to be a consultancy position.

Peace Direct strives to be a diverse and inclusive employer, with equality of opportunities regardless of personal identity, and we are committed to improving our systems and ways of working to support this, including creating a Diversity, Equality and Inclusion (DEI) working group, DEI strategy and recruitment guidelines. We strongly encourage individuals from disadvantaged and underrepresented backgrounds to apply, including Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME), LGBTQ+, people with disabilities and people with mental health challenges.
