About us
We are National Energy Action (NEA) – and our vision is to end fuel poverty. Our work to improve and promote energy efficiency brings social, environmental, housing and employment benefits. We believe everyone should be able to afford to keep their homes warm and safe. However, low incomes, high energy bills and poor energy efficiency currently deny this to millions of households across the UK. Never has this been more important than today.

We offer colleagues a friendly, rewarding workplace and the chance to build a worthwhile career with a not-for-profit organisation that makes a genuine difference to people’s lives each and every day.

Whether you’re parked at a local market or set up at a community centre, your role will be hands-on, visible, and truly impactful.
What you’ll need to succeed
- A full driving licence and confidence travelling across North London
- Experience giving energy advice to householders, particularly those in vulnerable or low-income situations
- A genuine passion for community outreach and engagement
- Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
- A flexible, empathetic approach with the ability to work independently
This role offers variety, autonomy, and the chance to play a vital part in tackling fuel poverty on the ground. You’ll also be part of a supportive, values-led team that’s committed to making a meaningful difference.
If you’re excited by the idea of taking your expertise on the road and connecting directly with communities, we’d love to hear from you.
