About the role:

A Climate Ready advisor post has become available within the Healthy Green Homes team to deliver the Sefton Climate & Retrofit Action Project (SCRAP).

Key responsibilities include:

Offering advice at a range of locations including at immersive room locations in the Borough, events, home visits or over the telephone. This post holder will also make applications for funding on behalf of vulnerable clients to enable climate/ retrofit works to take place e.g. home insulation, boiler replacement.  Advice and information will also be given on behavioural change and how small changes can have a big, combined impact.
