*About Us*
Are you looking for a role where your experience, reliability, and meticulous approach are genuinely valued? Whether you’re returning after a career break, seeking a meaningful second career, or looking for long-term stability in a small and supportive business — Your Energy Source would love to hear from you.
We are a growing consultancy and a UK leader in renewable energy grant applications.

*Essential:*
* A strong natural inclination toward *accuracy, checking, consistency and precision*
* Demonstratable numeracy skills for reviewing data within Excel documents to spot problems and resolve them
* High IT literacy
* Ability to follow detailed procedures carefully and reliably

* Ability to work independently and manage deadlines
*Desirable:*
* A degree in *engineering*, *physics*, *mathematics*, *renewable energy*, *data science*, or another technical discipline

* A technical or compliance-focused background in any industry
* Enjoyment of structured, repeatable tasks and problem-solving
