Project Officer, Worker-led Transition

GBP46,726 per annum, rising incrementally to GBP48,535 pa (pro-rated if part-time)

Contract - Fixed term for 32 months (to be extended to 36 months once funding is secured)

Hours - This role can be part-time or full-time. Maximum 35 hours per week (full-time), minimum 21 hours per week (3 days per week).

About this Role

The Project Officers will form part of our Worker-led Transition project team, that aims to protect the future of UK manufacturing jobs while accelerating climate action. The Project Officers will work closely with trade union officers and workplace reps, supporting them to scrutinise employers' plans for decarbonisation, and develop, promote, and advocate for plans that protect manufacturing jobs against offshoring while meeting vital climate targets.

The project focuses on the following industry sectors:

  • Automotive
  • Steel
  • Ceramics
  • Glass
  • Chemicals
  • Wood products
  • Cement
  • Offshore supply chains (e.g. assembly, metal fabrication)

The new Project Officers will be part of the TUC's Worker-led Transition Team, and collaborate closely with affiliated unions; supporting partner organisation New Economy Organisers' Network, as well as TUC policy staff and regional teams.

What qualifications, experience, skills, and knowledge do you need?

You will need:

  • Experience supporting workers and their trade unions as a workplace representative or trade union activist
  • Experience working in or with manufacturing, process industries, or related workplaces
  • Presentation skills
  • Knowledge of the manufacturing sector and/or a worker-led transition - preferably in one or more of the industrial sectors mentioned above
  • Strong commitment to the values of the trade union movement, including to protecting manufacturing jobs and tackling climate change
  • Competent teamwork, time-management, self-management and IT skills.

A degree is NOT a requirement. If you're not sure you meet the criteria, please don't self-reject

We are particularly keen to receive applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BME) applicants who are underrepresented in this part of the TUC. We also welcome applications from any candidate.

The closing date for completed applications for this post is 12 midday Wednesday 10 April. Interviews will be held on Monday 29th April and Wednesday 1st May.

TUC staff enjoy a good benefits package, including a final salary pension scheme and other benefits.
