  • Provide an escalation point for Workman teams or energy consultants on complex COT, debt or other billing issues where support is required to resolve queries

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU

Previous experience in the Energy industry is essential. You will have experience managing a diverse client portfolio, ideally with a similar property consultancy.
