About Possible
At Possible, we create, build, and share ways people can take meaningful action on climate change. Combining personal and local actions into larger systemic change, we face climate dread with a can-do attitude and sense of fun. Whether we’re helping people fix their electronics, turning parking spaces into tree planting zones or lobbying MPs on clean heat, everything we do is about inspiring more people to take ambitious climate action. We have a set of values that guide our actions and our organisational culture, daring, joy and community.
Commitment to anti-oppression
At Possible, our vision is a zero carbon society, built by and for the people of the UK. To achieve this, it is essential that the whole spectrum of the British public is represented in our organisation.
We welcome applications from those who are from marginalised groups, in terms of their sexual orientation, race, religion, ethnicity, age, neurodiversity, disability status, or if you are returning parents, carers or any other aspect which makes them unique. We particularly welcome applications from people who are underrepresented in the climate movement too, including People of Colour, Disabled people, those from a working class or low/ no income background, people who are trans, non-binary or gender fluid. You can find out more about our anti-oppression work here.
If you are from a marginalised group and/or have a non-traditional work or educational background and would like to discuss the role, or if you have any questions about the job or how we do things at Possible before you apply, there's information in the job pack about how to get in touch for a chat.
