We are looking for a highly motivated Programme Officer to join our Energy Transition team, and work on the decarbonisation of the cooling and heating sectors.
ECOS is looking for experts in the field of textiles to represent and defend environmental interests in the development of standards and related policies. Our experts provide us with technical and scientific input and represent ECOS in standardisation processes and multi-stakeholder discussions.
2026 is a special year for ECOS. It marks a quarter century of bringing the environmental voice to standards. This important milestone has also been an opportunity to reflect on our journey and the way forward – and of course, to celebrate. From reflecting on our impact to our annual meeting with members to spotlighting the faces behind ECOS or learning about our partners experiences with us.

Standards underpin public policies – and can be the make or break of their environmentally ambitious implementation. Delays in standardisation can considerably slow down the implementation phase, create uncertainty for businesses, and hinder innovation - but speeding up the development of standards should not come at the expense of quality.
We are excited to welcome PELUM Kenya to the ECOS Network! They are a national network of organisations working to advance agroecological practices among small-scale farmers, pastoralists, and fisherfolk all over Kenya.
At ECOS, we work across sectors to ensure the technical rules that shape our economies also protect people and the planet. We now bring our expertise to the agrifood sector - where strengthening rules and standards could have profound environmental and social benefits.

Europe has all the tools necessary to ensure public money rewards innovative technologies, including low-carbon concrete. It only needs equal political ambition to be reflected in the Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA).
