Don’t just let the future happen
Build it, with your tech expertise
We're helping people to manage their energy better, drive their electric vehicles further and play a bigger part in improving our planet.
And we're after the sharpest minds to help us.
More tech. More autonomy.
Since day one, we've used technology to solve some of the biggest problems in energy, revolutionising a broken industry for the benefit of customers.
And we're not stopping there. Now, we're reimagining the entire energy system. To do it we're introducing smart energy products into people's homes and increasing renewable energy on the grid for a carbon-free future for all.
Everything we've achieved has come from our culture of empowerment and ownership in tech- so if you've got the skills and courage to take on the bigger challenges to come, keep reading.
