Who the job is for.
NTSU is searching for an enthusiastic Sustainability Officer to join our People & Culture Team.


Do you have a passion for environmental conservation and sustainable practices? Are you ready to lead the charge in implementing green initiatives? If you're committed to making a tangible impact and promoting sustainability within an organisation, we're excited to meet you.


What's the job.


The Sustainability Officer at NTSU will be instrumental in assessing and enhancing the environmental impact of the organisation and its activities.

This involves identifying and deploying tools for measuring environmental performance, managing engagement with environmental standards like ISO 14001, and collaborating on projects with NTU to foster active participation among colleagues and students.

The role demands the development and execution of the NTSU Sustainability Strategy in alignment with the overarching organisational strategy, ensuring it reflects sector best practices, legislative compliance, and campus-wide initiatives.

A critical aspect of the job includes fostering a culture of sustainability within the NTSU community.

This includes engaging students in the co-creation and execution of sustainability strategies, leading targeted projects to address environmental challenges, and enhancing communication about the Union's environmental efforts to ensure they are engaging and accessible.

Building effective relationships within NTSU and NTU is key to enabling collaborative approaches to sustainability challenges, as well as working with stakeholders to implement environmental report recommendations across campuses.


Additionally, the role extends to supporting the Union's broader engagement with sustainability through content creation, reporting on progress towards sustainability goals, participating in professional development, and fostering an environment of constructive feedback.

The Sustainability Officer will also be expected to support student officers, committee members, and union staff in sustainability initiatives, manage student staff or interns, and contribute innovative practices to NTSU's service planning and delivery.

This comprehensive role not only focuses on immediate sustainability goals but also on cultivating a long-term culture of environmental responsibility within the NTSU community.


What are we looking for?


We value experience in working with and supporting students, as well as a deep understanding of Education for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals.

If you have a track record of building strong relationships with various stakeholders, juggling competing priorities, and delivering training, we encourage you to apply.

Experience in the education sector and project management will be highly regarded.
