Are you highly organised, motivated, and looking to start a career in design within the renewable energy sector?

Do you want full training, clear progression, and the opportunity to develop technical skills in a fast-growing business?

My client is a rapidly expanding renewable energy contractor specialising in large-scale commercial heat pumps and ground-mounted solar projects.

The ideal candidate will be local to Cambridge or Royston, hardworking, and motivated to develop new skills. You will be supported from day one and given the opportunity to progress into more technical design responsibilities over time.
