About Bank.Green

At Bank.Green, our mission is to lower this vast carbon footprint via technology and consumer action. We empower bank customers with the tools and insights they need to influence their banks towards sustainable lending, or switch to greener alternatives. To date, our bank-checking tool has been used over 400,000 times by bank customers worldwide, while we have shifted a at least $30m towards bank who are financing a greener future. Through transparency, engagement, and innovation, we aim to redefine the role of banks in the fight against climate change.

Role Overview

In this pivotal role, you'll be instrumental in spreading awareness about banks' environmental impacts, green personal finance, and encouraging bank customers to demand more sustainable policies from their financial institutions. Your efforts will not only drive our message home but will also facilitate a broader understanding and tangible change within the banking sector.

This role is currently volunteer-based and we are seeking a commitment of 3-5 hours per week. We are looking for somebody to come on long-term, but are open to shorter-term applicants.

Key Responsibilities

  • Craft 1-2 compelling articles monthly for our blog to engage and educate our audience.

  • Utilise SEO best practices to increase the reach and impact of our content.

  • Occasionally contribute to various content projects such as website content, campaign-related materials, or other advocacy-related content.

Desired Skills

  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills.

  • Proven experience in content creation or a similar role.

  • A basic understanding of finance or banking is preferred but not required.

  • Autonomous work ethic, with the ability to work collaboratively in a remote team environment.

  • A passionate advocate for environmental issues, especially within the financial sector (though again, not required).

Volunteer Benefits

As a volunteer-driven organization, we are very focused on making all of our opportunities as valuable as possible for our volunteers. In this spirit, we will offer you:

  • Opportunities to gain insights into sustainable banking practices and advancements in environmental advocacy through continuous learning.

  • The chance to network with other sustainability professionals and advocates, enhancing your professional connections.

  • Valuable experience in a critical climate-focused role, which will enhance your resume and skill set.

  • Recognition for positive performance with supportive references and recommendations for your future career growth.
