Which expertises are working with district heating?

Fresh challenges

District heating networks aren’t new, but many of the technical challenges you’ll need to overcome are. You’ll be working at the heart of communities, developing innovative ways to extend networks and connect homes to them with minimal disruption to local residents.

Focus on customers

As a District Heating engineer, working closely with customers and communities is central to your role in developing economic, sustainable and reliable networks.
As a Sales Engineer you work with Account Managers to develop the best way to convert a gas-connected property to our network, with Technical Engineers then turning the proposed solution into practice.
Your ability to explain often complex technical issues and to work with others means that as a Project Manager you’ll be able to influence decision-makers so that a busy city centre pipeline can follow the optimum route.

Keeping it all running

As our heat networks continue to grow, your technical expertise will help ensure the highest levels of availability and safety.
Our expansion plans mean there are plenty of opportunities to develop your career and take on more responsibility.

24/7 focus

Ensuring reliable, safe heat requires a 24/7 focus. As a Maintenance Mechanic you’ll be part of a supportive team helping keep the network running smoothly and efficiently, and quickly fixing problems when they arise.
Maintaining the highest quality and safety standards across our operations means that as a Supervisor you’ll have an important role to play in liaising with contractors.
As Reliability Engineer, your mechanical engineering superpowers will be invaluable in helping decide on the best maintenance approach to ensure cost efficiency without compromising on safety and availability.
