Not only will you learn the ins and outs of our organisation, but you'll also get to learn about how to get a renewable energy project off the ground and you'll get to see first-hand how the financial benefits can support a community.

We’re looking for someone who is organised, reliable, and enjoys helping things run smoothly behind the scenes. Good communication skills, attention to detail, and a friendly, positive attitude are key.
