Oxford council’s target to become a Zero Carbon Council

This job is a part of the council’s target to become a Zero Carbon Council across its own estate and operations by 2030, as the leisure centres are responsible for around 40% of current building carbon emissions.

We are proud to be working alongside Oxford City Council

Richard Poulter (Managing Director from Willmott Dixon’s Central South region): “We are proud to be working alongside Oxford City Council on this exciting carbon reduction project, which will deliver a step change in the mitigation of fossil fuels in the local community.

Committed to achieving net zero operational carbon on all our new buildings

The programme is close to our heart and through our own 2030 ‘Now or Never’ Sustainability strategy, we have committed to achieving net zero operational carbon on all our new buildings and major refurbishments within the next decade.”
