  • Highly organised. It goes without saying but you will be able to manage complex projects at pace.
  • Great communicator. You’ll interface with our team, our customers and our suppliers. You’ll need to concisely take in and share information rapidly.
  • Passion Our goal is nothing less than to transform people’s homes and accelerate home decarbonisation. Passion for moving beyond intention and climate goals into real action is a must
  • Light-speed learner. Every day the company is growing and evolving, and so will your role over time.
  • Be okay with making mistakes. We are all learning and mistakes are the byproduct of doing something new. Making them is part of the journey, but dwelling on them is not

This is a rare opportunity to join an exciting new venture in a booming field with the potential for a significant impact on the UK's climate targets.
