Here at ISS, as a leading Facilities Management (FM) provider, we are looking to develop our central Sustainability Division in relation to our progression towards Net Zero.

We are now looking to recruit a Decarbonisation Lead to develop, implement and monitor Decarbonisation Strategies across Scope 3, within our main FM service lines (Technical/Engineering, Cleaning, Security & Food) across clients within all business segments, from government to banking.

This is your opportunity to come in to a leading organisation in the Built Environment space, working within a rapidly growing central Sustainability team, both write and drive practical implementation of decarbonisation strategies across diverse service lines we deliver nationally to our fantastic client base.

Given a clear mandate from senior leadership, you will be empowered to make real and effective change in this brand new role.

• Develop and implement effective reporting and analysis tools to ensure that the delivery of all service line sustainability activity is delivered to scope and within the agreed milestones.
• • Define and communicate roles, responsibilities and decision-making authority to ensure accountability of delivery for each service line and escalate issues through agreed channels.
• Ensure that SME’s, source, test, evidence and implement suitable solutions that are cost effective and impact on the delivery of action plan targets.
• Share data with the Net Zero and Technical functions and report progress of individual service line plans.
• Ensure appropriate data management systems and processes are in use by each service line, highlight any data or system issues to the Data Governance Manager and agree resolutions.
• Identify, manage and mitigate risk associated with the delivery of the service line plans, escalating any business wide and/or critical risks/issues to the Head of function.
• Co-ordinate task management activity from internal and external service line SMEs and resources across UK&I, group, customers and suppliers to successfully deliver targets and outcomes for each plan.
• Create standardised methods, resources and templates for reporting progress against each service line plan.
• Set up and manage the governance and meeting framework and cadence for SteerCo and individual service line project leads
