This role will provide advice and capacity support to help identify, co-ordinate and develop investible business cases for initiatives that will help to drive forward local net zero strategies and public sector plans. Working as a valued member of the North East & Yorkshire Net Zero Hub team the role will contribute to achieving the overarching aims and ambitions of the Hub, providing targeted support focussed on accelerating activity linked to e.g. energy efficiency, generation, storage, and addressing fuel poverty.

The successful candidate will be a strong collaborator and excellent facilitator, with the communication skills to articulate value and write compelling business cases. They will have a sound knowledge of energy/low carbon technologies and policy, along with critical understanding of what makes a project or business case investible and be able to apply this to identify and generate opportunities for project development and delivery. A strong team player, the postholder will work to maximise the benefits of Net Zero for the Tees Valley area while delivering the wider Hub agenda and contributing to shared learning and development across the Hub geography and beyond.
