Zestec Renewable Energy, part of the Octopus Energy Group of companies, specialises in the origination, development and management of commercial and residential solar systems and portfolios on behalf of institutional investors.
Our team has a wealth of experience in making clean, green electricity available to businesses and other institutions at a lower cost than they pay for traditional energy.
We save clients’ money and contribute significantly to their Net Zero agendas. In a short time, we have gained industry recognition as a market leader in this area and our team is growing accordingly.
Wholly owned by one of the funds managed by Octopus Renewables and as part of the Octopus Energy Group we have a great platform for expanding our capabilities in the Commercial and Industrial renewable energy market. Octopus Renewables manages a diverse portfolio of assets with a capacity of over 3GW, making it one of the largest commercial solar investors in Europe and a leading investor in solar and onshore wind.
This is an exciting, varied and challenging role, where you’ll be involved in the design and development of a wide range of commercial solar PV projects being developed on behalf of our investor partner.
We are looking to invest in the future of our business and are therefore looking to recruit a solar project engineer who will be instrumental in the continued growth of the business. We are looking for graduate or year-in industry applicants.
We don’t expect you to arrive knowing how to do all of this! We are looking for someone ready to learn and keen to start a career in renewables.
We’d also like you to be of the right personal character, have a high level of integrity and be enjoyable to work with.
Zestec has built an exciting and inclusive, engaging, performance culture where our team feels empowered. This means we welcome discussions around flexible working hours and a genuine work life balance. At Zestec we don’t just focus on what we do but also how we do it. Everyone shares our values of being straightforward, helpful and bold.
At Zestec, we're looking for genuinely decent people who are candid, empathetic and have the right values. We not only say that people are our strongest asset; we are keen to see them develop. We promote equal opportunities for growth and development regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, or socio-economic background. We believe strongly that teams are at their best when every member of the team feels safe to bring their whole self to work.
