Where a caller is ready to borrow a cycle through Wheels4MeLondon, the Specialist Advisor will support callers to request a loan via the Peddle My Wheels website.

d. Ensuring that new, useful information is stored/posted to our website for use by future enquirers.
e. Supporting people with queries about how to access Wheels for Wellbeing’s services, including support with our booking system
2. Building accessible information resources (eg: website pages, briefings, FAQ page, etc.) about Inclusive cycling, such as:
a. Inclusive cycling opportunities providers in London and around the UK
b. Types & models of non-standard cycles and specialist adaptions retailers around the UK and overseas
c. Details of the Wheels4Me London’s scheme and other inclusive cycle hire/loan schemes around the UK.
d. Funding options for Disabled people wishing to purchase their own cycles
3. Effective liaison with all Wheels4MeLondonPlus partners for successful cycle loan experience. This will include:

b. Take part in project team meetings with all partners (Sustrans London; Peddle My Wheels and the rest of the WfW team).
c. Collect and store data such as numbers & types of enquiries, case studies, etc., as required for reporting to the funder.

Interested in an exciting role which helps protect forests, the climate and human rights? This may be the job for you.
Earthsight is looking for an experienced campaigner to lead our policy and comms work delivering impactful analyses and advocacy on the impacts of Western consumption on the world’s forests, native biomes and local communities.
Earthsight is a non-profit organisation dedicated to researching and investigating environmental and social crime and injustice. We use cutting-edge investigative methods to uncover and expose wrongdoing. Since emerging as a fully-fledged organisation in 2016, our reports have garnered headlines, won awards and triggered major changes by governments and corporations.
We seek to create positive change by influencing government policy, uncovering greenwash and raising awareness among key constituencies about the impacts of global supply chains on the world’s forests and forest communities.
Most global deforestation is driven by industrial production of a handful of major commodities, including beef, soy, palm oil and wood. A large chunk of this production is to meet demand in Western consumer markets. Over the past few years, Earthsight has played a key role in highlighting the complicity of corporations and consumers in the EU, UK and US in the destruction of forests overseas, as well as the abuses of local people which accompany that destruction. As part of a global coalition, we have succeeded in getting laws passed or under development in all those jurisdictions which aim to clean up these supply chains. Now we need to ensure those laws are effectively enforced.
This role will be key to that. As part of a small team, you will help design and coordinate implementation of our policy strategy and outputs. You will represent the organisation in meetings with policymakers, government authorities and civil society, as well as help draft and disseminate policy briefings and other advocacy material. You will also oversee our comms work.
The position is offered as a full-time permanent contract. The successful candidate would preferably be based in the UK and able to come into our office in London regularly. Earthsight is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to ensuring careers in the charity sector are open to all. We value difference and believe it enhances our capabilities. We therefore particularly encourage applications from people from a range of different backgrounds.

- Build and maintain relationships with key policy stakeholders in Europe and the UK, including policymakers, civil servants, civil society, enforcement authorities
