We're looking to appoint a team of six people to visit households in Wakefield to promote good recycling practices!
The Mobius Agency is a multi-discipline, specialist behaviour change communications company providing support to public sector institutions around the world in the fields of environmental sustainability, resource and waste management.

You will work closely with the team to ensure that set targets are met, and accurate reports are provided. All work will be carried out within the Wakefield area.
This is a fixed-term contract expected to run for five to six weeks.
Qualifications
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills for engaging with the public
