Customer Services Representative

Customer Services Representative role at Switch2 Energy Limited

Switch2 Energy is the UK’s most experienced and capable provider of end-to-end solutions for heat networks.

Heat networks are a key part of the government’s net zero carbon targets as they distribute heat or cooling from a central source to multiple customers. Heat networks can use renewable energy sources and although currently they supply heat to only 2% of homes and businesses, by 2050 this is planned to be 20%.

We provide smart and sustainable heat network solutions to local authorities, housing associations, managing agents and private developers for residential developments. We work to optimise energy efficiency, manage the delivery of renewable energy, retrofit underperforming schemes to ensure future decarbonisation, all while striving to minimise costs for residents who live there.

We are passionate about helping our customers and communities live sustainable lives, now and in the future. We are trusted experts in the design, build, and operation of heat and energy networks. We research, develop, build, and implement technology-based solutions. Find out more about us and our valuable work on our website  and our You Tube page.
