Fife Communities Climate Action Network (FCCAN) is a network of community groups in Fife that are taking action on climate change. Our aim is to empower and enable communities to create a low carbon future and promote local resilience and well-being.

We have three exciting opportunities to join our Fife Climate Hub team, funded by the Scottish Government.

The Fife Climate Hub is part of a new network of regional community climate action hubs, created by the Scottish Government. The Hub empowers community-led action on the climate crisis. Our vision is for a growing Fife-wide network of groups taking climate action to meet the needs of their communities. We build capacity of existing community groups working on climate, encourage collaboration and reach beyond the climate engaged to grow a diverse network across Fife. We also provide a voice for our members to influence local and national policy. Together we are driving change and strengthening climate resilience in Fife.

The Hub offers training, advice, inspiration, networking, funding and signposting to places of support. We provide opportunities for networking and shared learning to create a strong climate movement across Fife and drive change across all sectors.

We’re looking for passionate, enthusiastic people to further develop the project. This is an exciting opportunity to shape community climate action within Scotland through a model of localised ‘grassroots’ collaborative support.

The Community Development Officer (Funding) will support existing community groups to access funding to deliver their climate projects. The post holder will signpost groups to relevant funding opportunities, support them through the application process and act as a liaison between community groups, local authority and funders. They will also administer Fife Climate Hub’s Community Climate Grants scheme.
