Subject: Job Opportunities at the UK Climate Impacts Programme, Oxford

UK Climate Impacts Programme, Environmental Change Institute, Oxford
University Centre for the Environment 

The UK Climate Impacts Programme (UKCIP) www.ukcip.org.uk was set up by the UK
Government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) in
1997 to help organisations assess how they might be affected by climate
change, so that they can plan to adapt. Since 1997 the Programme has grown
rapidly: regional partnerships working on climate impacts and adaptation now
exist across the UK , in addition to sectoral studies and stakeholder-led
groups addressing climate risks in a diverse range of organisations including
business and local authorities.

There are currently 3 posts available at UKCIP:

also represent UKCIP on a portfolio of climate change partnerships, including
a wide range of stakeholders, providing them with advice and support.

UKCIP is looking to recruit a science graduate with relevant post-graduate
experience to assist in the provision of scientific advice and data to
stakeholders on how to prepare for and adapt to the impacts of a changing
