Outreach associate

Help turn awareness into action, at scale

Singapore's sustainable future will not be built by awareness alone. It depends on many people changing what they do at home, at work and in their communities. At the Singapore Environment Council, our Outreach team is working to make that shift happen: turning awareness into everyday action that adds up to real environmental impact at scale.

You would join the team making it happen. As Outreach Associate, you will coordinate the programmes that bring sustainability into homes and communities, support the volunteers who make them possible, and meet the public face to face. This is a full-time, permanent role for fresh graduates and early career professionals who care about the environment, enjoy working with people and want to see their work make a difference.

We value curiosity above all: the drive to ask why, find a better way and keep growing.
