Air Source Heat Pumps, Renewable Heating and Social Housing
A growing renewable energy contractor is looking for an experienced Lead Heat Pump Installer to oversee air source heat pump installations across social housing, residential developments and new-build projects.
The successful candidate will take responsibility for leading installations, maintaining quality standards and helping the business build a reliable heat pump installation team.

- Long-term career progression
- Additional technical and F-Gas training available
