If you’re looking for a new fresh and exciting position in 2026 with long-term stability, excellent support, and the opportunity to contribute to Scotland’s transition to cleaner, greener heating solutions, we’d love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing

This role primarily involves the installation of Air Source Heat Pumps in domestic properties.
