We are the coalition of leading trade associations working together with government, business and the third sector to deliver the UK’s net zero and environmental goals. We believe collaboration between all sectors of the economy is essential to protect and restore the environment, so we create the space to make this happen.

The Net Zero Council has launched a programme to develop Sector Transition Plans (STPs) to help businesses, investors and policymakers coordinate the UK’s transition to a clean, secure energy system and decarbonised economy while driving economic growth and improving lives across the country.

The Broadway Initiative, together with DESNZ, provides the secretariat for the Net Zero Council and has convened organisations from across the economy to help shape the STP approach. The Broadway Initiative is now supporting implementation of STPs through a three-year programme of collaboration.

Broadway Initiative is now seeking to recruit a Head of Sector Transition Plans to lead Broadway’s vital work in the delivery of this ground breaking initiative.

We are a small team with a great collaborative spirit working with many of the UK’s sustainability leaders.

We primarily work remotely with in‑person team days from time to time and we welcome applicants based anywhere in the UK. Please note however that the role will require periodic in‑person meetings with stakeholders in London and so a willingness to travel to London when required is important.

Candidates’ starting salary will be set according to their qualifications and experience within the given range. The annual leave entitlement is 25 days plus public holidays. You are eligible to join the company’s stakeholder pension scheme after successful completion of the probation period.
