About Owngreen
Owngreen is building a UK-focused home-energy community to help homeowners make smarter decisions about their homes, energy use, and household costs.
We share practical, easy-to-understand information about solar, battery storage, energy efficiency, energy tariffs, heating, EV charging, and other home-energy solutions.
We are at an early stage, which means this is an opportunity to help shape the brand, content, and community from the ground up.
About the Role
We are looking for a Content & Social Media Volunteer who is interested in content creation, social media, sustainability, and the UK home-energy sector.
You will help create useful and engaging content for Owngreen's digital channels while helping us build an online community around smarter home energy.
This is an unpaid volunteer opportunity and would suit someone looking to develop practical experience, build their portfolio, and contribute to a growing sustainability-focused project.
What You'll Do
- Research UK home-energy topics and identify useful content ideas.
- Create engaging posts for LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook.
- Help develop articles, guides, and other website content.
- Turn technical or complicated energy topics into simple, accessible explanations.
- Help plan and maintain a content calendar.
- Engage with relevant conversations and communities on social media.
- Respond to comments and messages where appropriate.
- Monitor basic content performance and identify what resonates with the audience.
- Research current developments, trends, and discussions around UK home energy.
- Contribute ideas for campaigns, community activities, and future content.
- Help maintain a consistent Owngreen brand voice across our digital channels.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We're Looking For
You don't need to be an expert in renewable energy. We're more interested in your curiosity, communication skills, and willingness to learn.
You may be a good fit if you have:
- Strong written communication skills.
- An interest in social media and digital content.
- The ability to research a topic and communicate it clearly.
- Good attention to detail.
- Creativity and the ability to generate new content ideas.
- Good organizational skills and reliability.
- An interest in sustainability, energy, technology, or environmental issues.
- Basic familiarity with platforms such as LinkedIn, Instagram, or Facebook.
Experience with Canva, CapCut, social-media scheduling tools, SEO, or analytics is a bonus, but not essential.
