Sustainable Schools Alliance (SSA) Coordinator
1 day per week until Dec 2015
Closing date: April 5th ( interviews on selected dates in the next 2 weeks)
SEEd facilitates, supports and is the Secretariat for the Sustainable Schools Alliance, formed after the coalition government stopped supporting SS internally in government. They are supportive of the SSA as their statement in the Natural Environment White Paper (2011) attests. The Alliance is supported by a newly formed SSA Board of up to 25 independent organisations covering all aspects of sustainability in schools, delivery and support as well as different sized organisations from corporates to small networks. It is hope a good geographical spread for England will also be established. This new Board will meet at least termly and will undertake the work needed to keep Sustainable Schools in the minds eye, if not work, of all schools. In the first instance this Board will work together for 3 years.
The position of Coordinator is paid for from the membership fees of the SSA Board, and is managed by SEEd and operates out of the SEED offices in London. Currently the job is for 1 day per week, but as the work and income increase this may increase to 2 days per week.
If you are interested in supporting this important work and are organised and self-motivated please do send your CV and a covering letter to ann.finlayson@se-ed.org.uk before April 5th at 5pm
