This is an opportunity to build and lead one of the UK's next-generation energy businesses.
As Envevo continues its growth journey, we are investing in the technologies that will accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future. We are seeking an ambitious and commercially driven leader to grow our Battery Energy Storage (BESS) and Solar business, creating a market-leading capability that helps customers unlock the full potential of renewable energy infrastructure.
The Head of Energy Systems role will combine strategic leadership, business development, technical expertise, commercial management, and operational oversight to create a profitable and scalable business unit.
Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will have significant influence in shaping the strategy, direction, and success of this business unit. You will combine commercial leadership, technical expertise, and entrepreneurial thinking to create a high-performing team, secure major customer opportunities, and deliver sustainable growth.
The successful candidate will develop and execute the Company's battery storage and solar strategy, driving revenue growth, increasing market share, and delivering sustainable profitability. The role will be responsible for identifying market opportunities, developing strategic partnerships, securing major contracts, influencing tender submissions, and ensuring the successful delivery of projects across the UK and Ireland.
This is not a role for someone looking to maintain the status quo. It is an opportunity to build something substantial; creating a business that sits at the centre of the UK's energy transition and leaves a lasting impact on the industry's journey to net zero.
This position requires a commercially minded leader with a strong engineering or renewable energy background, capable of operating at both strategic and operational levels while building a high-performing team and establishing the Company as a recognised market leader within the renewable energy sector.

- Shape the long-term growth strategy, market positioning, and service offering.
- Develop strategic partnerships with technology providers, developers, investors, and supply chain partners.
