Working at Greener Kirkcaldy
Greener Kirkcaldy is a community-led charity working locally to bring people together, take positive action on the climate emergency and support people through fuel poverty and food insecurity. Based in the heart of Kirkcaldy – with a community building, training kitchen, bike shop and garden – we carry out activities across Kirkcaldy and work with partners to deliver projects across Fife.
We want our town to be a good place to live and work. We believe in a future where everyone has a say in what happens locally, people are working together to protect our environment and those in hardship are supported to live well. That includes our staff and volunteers.
Working at Greener Kirkcaldy involves being part of a positive, collaborative and social team. Our culture is really important to us. We promote equality, diversity and openness. We have a strong focus on staff wellbeing and development and encourage staff initiative and ideas.

Diversity and inclusion
We want Greener Kirkcaldy to be an inclusive and diverse charity where everyone feels supported, valued and able to be themselves. We take part in Fife Centre for Equalities’ Equality Pathfinders programme. We also take part in the Race Equality Environmental Programme facilitated by CEMVO Scotland. Our Equalities Action Plan sets out the steps we are taking to improve diversity and inclusion.
To achieve our vision of Kirkcaldy as a greener and fairer place to live, we need a diverse team. We encourage applications from people of any background. We know that in our sector we particularly lack staff and volunteers with Minority Ethnic backgrounds and disabled people. If you identify as Minority Ethnic and/or disabled, we are particularly interested in receiving your application.
Please contact our Office Manager Dianne Girvan (dianne@greenerkirkcaldy.org.uk) to discuss any additional support you may need to complete your application or take part in the recruitment process. If you’re passionate about tackling the climate emergency and making a difference to our community, we’d love to hear from you.
