What does the day look like?
Your work runs on project paperwork: you help plan, run, monitor and report activities, keep files, schedules and volunteer lists, and draft donor progress and performance reports. You mobilise community and school climate clubs, support climate-smart practice demonstrations, organise workshops, trainings and side events, and liaise with local government and partners.
The tools are Microsoft Excel for tracking and budgets, Word and PowerPoint for reports and event material, Outlook and Teams for coordination, and donor templates such as Performance Progress Reports on Grants.gov-funded work. The week is 35 to 40 hours of office time, with evening and weekend work around events and COP deadlines. There are no routine night shifts and no on-call rota at entry level, but surge overtime before deadlines is standard. Field climate science is 15% to 25% of the time; 75% to 85% is desk work: administration, writing, spreadsheets and logistics.
