Air Quality Project Manager

BRAL, together with residents and partner organizations, advocates for the right to healthy air in the Brussels region. In the context of Breathe Brussels with the support of Clean Air Fund BRAL is hiring a project manager who will be responsible for supporting and further developing the "air community" in Brussels. The project will run until December 2026 (with the possibility of extension).
