We are living through a time where what we do right now in the fight against climate change will impact generations to come long into the future. And what happens in local government will be critical to the success of winning this fight. Will you choose to be someone that can make a real difference? Tower Hamlets has declared a climate emergency and has set an ambitious target to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2045. In addition, the borough will see itself grow by 50,000 new homes over the next 15 years therefore the challenge to decarbonise our borough, enable a green transition and provide the energy infrastructure to support this growth will be immense! The brand-new Future Energy and Water Systems Team is stepping up to this incredible challenge and is determined to play a role in bringing people together on a pathway to achieving net-zero whilst delivering secure, reliable and affordable energy to our residents. Adopting a 'whole energy systems' approach will be key to delivering the innovative solutions the borough needs, and we want you to join us on our exciting journey to deliver them. You will be employed at a principal officer level who can confidently advocate for the council's energy interests as we transition to a low carbon economy. Some experience in energy security, electricity supply and heat networking at either strategy, development or delivery stage, will be helpful. That said, we're also keen to hear from people at a range of stages in their career and with transferable skills in related infrastructure and/or engineering fields. The Role There is much we are already doing as a council, but we must go much further including building on the work we have already done on our Local Area Energy Plan. This means decarbonising our own assets wherever we can; further developing robust and effective strategies and either implementing the council's own schemes or facilitating the delivery of other schemes outside the council. To do this we will need to work closely with utility providers, developers, government, regulators and our local communities to deliver a modern fit-for-the-future energy system. Supported by the team, you will take a leading, facilitating and supporting role in ensuring the best outcomes for our residents. In response to the challenge above, the council has recognised we need to develop our in-house expertise and resources. Together we will work with you to build your skills and expertise as we travel on this journey. Bolstering the Council's expertise in strategic energy planning and implementation, you will play a key role in delivering our ambitions. You will need to have some technical understanding along with the ability to bring people together to tackle our shared challenges. About you To fulfil this role effectively, you will need to demonstrate: That you hold a degree (undergraduate or post-graduate) and professional qualification in engineering or other related discipline and relevant experience. A detailed understanding of energy planning and delivery in a political, urban environment including such issues as development economics, engineering, planning, inward investment and place-making. Experience of maximising net zero, multi benefit utilities opportunities and benefits for local people within a heat network zone is particularly welcomed. An ability to bring people together and achieve consensus to deliver high quality outcomes in a planning, development and engineering field. Experience of public consultation, funding applications, business casing and project procurement are welcomed. A strong desire to deliver a modern, resilient and effective energy system that benefits the people of Tower Hamlets. Closing date: 2nd February 2025 To apply, please click "Apply Now".

Job Introduction The BBC's operating environment is changing, with digital technology and mobile working leading this transformation. BBC North is a major vehicle for this innovative change and aspires to be one of the most efficient, effective and sustainable parts of the BBC. Core to these changes at MediaCityUK is the best use and effective management of our technology and physical spaces. Our IT and accommodation services are delivered through a network of central support teams. The IT & Accommodation Assistants (ITAAs) play a key role within this network, providing admin and organisational support to the IT & Accommodation Manager, helping with audits, desktop IT support and reporting duties. They also have strong relationships with the Technology Division and other BBC and third party support teams. Main Responsibilities The ITAA supports the IT & Accommodation Manager, acting as a secondary authoriser for all IT Asset requests, assessing and approving where appropriate based on BBC technology and IT Policies. As an ITAA you will work with Production, advising on IT requirements as well as the issuing, management, and retrieval of assets (such as mobile phones, laptops and other mobile devices) for those joining or leaving the department. You'll also work closely with Atos ensuring all orders are placed and tracked through to billing and ensure pool assets have appropriate system updates and are ready for use. You'll be expected to assist with basic IT assistance to staff onsite and be a point of contract for any stolen or lost IT assets. You'll also support in matters of office management such as team moves (cutting keys, moving kit) and facilitate the allocation of storage for teams where required. Overall, you'll be expected to build and maintain excellent relationships within the department and with other BBC and 3rd party support teams, as well as working closely with the ITAM, to provide effective support to the Children's & Education department. Are you the right candidate? The ideal candidate will have a technical background and previous experience within IT support, or as an office or events IT Co-ordinator. It would be advantageous for the individual to have previous experience in a Production environment, or understand the fast-paced nature of Production and the needs of a project/production based business. You'll have excellent team-working skills and be able to effectively communicate with a wide range of individuals, both internal and external. You'll be used to working in a fast-paced environment and be able to prioritise effectively to meet tight deadlines and operate in a rapidly changing environment. A working knowledge of standard Microsoft Office applications including Microsoft Excel is essential. Experience using SAP is highly desirable. Any knowledge of the types of services being delivered by Atos under a Technology Framework Contract would be highly advantageous, as well as a working knowledge of business and administrative policies and procedures. About the BBC The BBC is committed to redeploying employees seeking suitable alternative employment within the BBC for different reasons and they will be given priority consideration ahead of other applicants. Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk. We don't focus simply on what we do - we also care how we do it. Our values and the way we behave are important to us. Please make sure you've read about our values and behaviours here. Diversity matters at the BBC. We have a working environment where we value and respect every individual's unique contribution, enabling all of our employees to thrive and achieve their full potential. We want to attract the broadest range of talented people to be part of the BBC - whether that's to contribute to our programming or our wide range of non-production roles.
