As you'll be managing a Team, experience of having managed people before is needed, including managing their workload, allocating resources and being there to advise on technical sustainability issues. You'll have a wider network of sustainability professionals to draw on and share ideas with across the different divisions of the business.
In return for your hard work, you will be joining a relaxed team environment, where you won't be micromanaged but instead offered a great deal of autonomy and regular opportunities to present to the Board and liaise with other senior stakeholders. In addition,
