Why join us…

Good work-life balance

We know how important a healthy work-life balance is. You’ll get up to 30 days annual leave (inclusive of publics) – and we shut down completely over Christmas. We have a range of family friendly policies in place and there’s blended working options to suit both your role and personal circumstances.

Protected well-being

Protecting your well-being in and out of work is vital. We have robust policies and procedures in place to keep you safe at work. We also offer life assurance and wider protection schemes, to provide additional peace of mind. Our Employee Assistance Programme provides free confidential advice and support, 24/7 and you’ll access the lowest available corporate rates at over 3,300 health clubs and gyms.

Career development opportunities

Whether you’re early in your career, or an experienced hire – you’ll be given the support you need. The diverse nature of our business provides lots of opportunity to up and multi-skill, plus a range of wider experts to learn from. There’s a mentoring scheme and a range of learning and development opportunities available.

Competitive package

We regularly salary benchmark to ensure we pay competitive rates and if you’re permanent, you’ll be eligible to join the annual bonus scheme. Your money will go further too as you’ll gain access to a wide range of discounts, cash back and promotions from high street retailers and on days out and holidays.

A positive social ethos

We support a panel of local charities, chosen by colleagues, with fundraising, donations and awareness activity. If you’re office-based you’ll also be invited to take an annual paid volunteering day to support our local communities. We take a collaborative approach to decision making, with Colleague Representatives from across the business who we regularly consult, and frequent colleague surveys seeking 360-degree feedback.

Driving Net Zero

It’s important for all businesses to operate sustainably – even more so in industries like ours, which by nature can very directly influence the nation’s carbon footprint. Working for us, you’ll play a vital role in developing and delivering some of the sustainable and innovative solutions at the forefront of Britain’s transition to Net Zero.

What values are important to us…

We developed the following core values following extensive workshops and colleague feedback, they’re ingrained in our culture, and summarise what’s most important to us:

We use the full depth and breadth of experience across our Group to consistently deliver a superior service – ensuring exceptional quality and value for our customers, every time.

We constantly transform and adapt to find new and dynamic solutions to meet our customer’s needs – supporting them to achieve their net zero ambitions.

We strive to always act with the utmost respect – for our colleagues, customers, stakeholders, and the environment.

We’re steadfast in our commitment to working with trust, honesty, and transparency – in everything we do.

We recognise our people are our most valuable asset – we champion their talent, empower them and support their continuous growth and development.

These core values are framed by an overarching commitment to safety – in whatever we do, wherever we operate. Safety first, safety always.


Careers for every stage…

We believe in our people, and offer excellent career opportunities, whatever stage you’re at.

Experience isn’t always necessary. Whether you’re preparing to leave school, have recently graduated, or are just looking for a new direction – we offer many roles where full in-house training, plus support from experienced mentors, is provided.

You’ll be part of a friendly, welcoming and diverse team, who are really looking forward to meeting the next intake of new starts. As we’re a large organisation, covering a wide range of multi-utilities solutions, there’s lots of opportunity to grow and progress your future utilities career further in time too.

Whether you’re a technician, a call centre professional, a finance expert, a lawyer or an engineer – whatever your background – we value the fresh perspective your experience will bring to our business, and offer a variety of careers for experienced professionals.

We’ll support you to continue to develop your skillset, building on your expertise throughout your career with us.

Careers for everyone…

We embrace diversity and actively seek to attract individuals with unique backgrounds and perspectives.

To build a sustainable future, we need the best team – with a diverse mix of people and skills, where everyone feels welcome and able to succeed.

We’re dedicated to be helping to close the diversity gap in the utilities and construction industries and would love to see more females, people of colour and LGBTQ+ employees, as well as those from a variety of cultures and ethnicities and the differently abled.

Our goal is to create a diverse workforce which respects our environment and local communities through ethical and sustainable practices. As a business, we actively monitor our progress in developing a workforce that reflects the communities we serve. To help advance this, we benchmark our success by tracking, measuring and reporting on staff turnover, absence, workforce diversity, gender balance and pay gap.
