Job Details

We're looking for a policy professional to work on REA's work on Energy from Waste, resource recovery and bioenergy — sectors at the heart of the UK's transition to a secure, circular energy system. Leading our Energy from Waste Forum, you'll set the policy agenda, build REA's influence with Government and Parliament, and give the sector a stronger, more confident voice.

Reporting to the Head of Heat and Biomass UK, you'll shape and deliver policy priorities that reflect what matters most to REA's 400+ members, run our quarterly Forum meetings and steering groups, and represent REA to DESNZ, DEFRA, NESO, regulators and industry.

The role also carries real commercial weight — growing membership, unlocking sponsorship and partnership opportunities, and strengthening the value REA offers across bioenergy, Energy from Waste and the wider circular economy. It's a high-profile position at the forefront of one of the most dynamic corners of the renewable energy sector.
