The ideal candidate and the role

As an Energy Advisor, you'll provide high-quality, personalised advice that helps customers understand their options, take action and make positive changes to their energy use.

You will join a supportive team of customer-focused advisors in a fast-paced environment. The role involves handling inbound enquiries and making outbound calls to existing customers. An interest in energy, sustainability or the environment would be an advantage, but it isn't essential as full training will be provided. You will require good IT skills and have a stable internet connection.

We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and we were nominated for employer of the year by the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce this year. Our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.
