Shape a Market. Build Your Reputation. Accelerate Your Career.
AD Energy is a specialist search and recruitment partner operating across the global renewable energy sector. We work with leading developers, manufacturers, investors, IPPs, EPCs, and OEMs within the solar and battery energy storage (BESS) markets.
We’re looking for an ambitious, commercially minded individual to join our team from our brand-new carbon-neutral office in Telford.
The Opportunity
This is not a traditional research role focused purely on data gathering and reporting. Instead, you’ll be at the centre of candidate engagement, market intelligence, and client delivery, helping connect some of the industry’s most talented professionals with market-leading organisations.
If you’re driven, resilient, and enjoy building relationships, you’ll thrive in our fast-paced, high-performance environment.
You’ll:
- Develop deep expertise within the renewable energy sector
- Build relationships with senior professionals
- Support high-profile search assignments
- Help clients make informed hiring decisions
This role offers the opportunity to become a recognised market specialist within one of the world’s fastest-growing industries.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify, source, and engage high-calibre professionals across the solar and energy storage sectors
- Conduct market research and talent mapping to identify key individuals and target organisations
- Build relationships through strategic outreach, networking, and candidate engagement
- Interview and assess candidates to understand experience, motivations, and career goals
- Support clients by providing insight into talent availability, market trends, and competitor activity
- Coordinate interview processes while maintaining a high-quality candidate experience
- Maintain accurate records of candidate activity, market intelligence, and project progress
- Build and grow a network of industry professionals across renewable energy
- Support targeted search projects, talent attraction initiatives, and marketing campaigns
- Attend industry events and networking opportunities to strengthen market knowledge and relationships
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
