About Energy UK
Energy UK is the trade association for the energy industry, representing companies investing billions of pounds to secure our country’s current and future energy needs.
From growing start-ups to major electricity generators, grid and infrastructure developers and energy suppliers, our members are driving change across power, heat, transport, flexibility homes and businesses.
We provide a collective voice for the sector working with governments, regulators, charities and other organisations to provide crucial insight that shapes policy, offers solutions and promotes best practice.
Our broad view across the whole system supports evidence-based positions which are not tied to particular technologies, and are focused on delivering strategic benefits for people, businesses and the economy.
We champion initiatives such as our Vulnerability Commitment, which pushes suppliers to go beyond regulation to support customers with additional needs, and TIDE, the industry’s drive for greater inclusion and diversity. Through our Young Energy Professionals Forum, we support the development of future leaders.
We really value our organisational culture at Energy UK. We have high quality support and development opportunities for our employees, and we are proud to have been awarded a Platinum accreditation with Investors in People. We know that the wellbeing of employees is key to our success and this is reflected in our progressive policies around wellbeing, flexible working and mental health.
Job purpose
We are looking for someone who shares our passion for the energy sector and the UK’s transition to Net Zero. We see the decarbonisation of our economy as one of the issues of our time, and believe that working in partnership across the sector is key to its delivery. The person in this role is crucial to helping us make that happen – helping us deepen our understanding of our members and stakeholders across the sector, to strengthen our relationships, and to help find opportunities whereby working together we can achieve more. This role gives a great platform that would be suitable for someone in the early years of their career to be right at the heart of what’s happening in the sector early on.

Head of HR
All applications should include a CV and covering letter stating why you think you are suitable for the role, why you are interested in applying to work at Energy UK and the value you would bring to the organisation.
To help our commitment to building a diverse team we operate a ‘blind’ recruitment process which helps our hiring managers to avoid unconscious bias and consider applicants on their skills and experience rather than on personal identifying data.
Please ensure you submit two copies of your CV and covering letter.
The first should be your standard CV that contains your name and all the information you would normally add to your CV.
The second copy should be an anonymised copy that does not contain the following details:
- your full name (just leave your initials)
- any information that indicates your age, sex, sexual orientation or ethnic background,
- dates and names of secondary schools or universities you have attended
- any personal interests.
The standard copy will only be viewed by the HR department and the anonymised version will be shared with the relevant hiring team.
“It took my CV and asked me questions relevant to understanding what kind of jobs to suggest for me. Suggestions were almost perfect. Jobs were exactly what I’ve been looking for.”
