About us

We’re Salix and we’re on a mission to help save the planet. We enable and inspire organisations in the public and private sectors to achieve their ambitious net zero targets and create better places to live and work. We’re passionate about our work and proud to be on the journey with them.

We deliver government funding schemes to support councils, schools, housing associations, hospitals and universities boost their energy efficiency, reduce their impact on the environment, save money and remove households from fuel poverty. We work with the UK government and the devolved administrations in Scotland and Wales. As well as managing the funding schemes, we provide professional advice, expertise and support to grant recipients throughout all stages of their projects.

We also offer insight, intelligence and influence by sharing knowledge and lessons learnt from project delivery to help improve future schemes and policy development. We were created in 2004 and have been growing ever since. We now employ 200 people. Our principal office is in Manchester and we have a base at Canary Wharf in London.

If you share our passion for addressing the urgent challenge of climate change and contributing to the UK's ambitious decarbonisation goals, we want to connect with you!

• Facilitating the client’s development of timely and accurate payment forecasts for their project, and supporting them through the payments’ process, ensuring they provide relevant and accurate evidence to support their claims.
• Preparing contractual agreements for clients’ projects initiation and ensure they understand their requirements in receiving Salix funds.
• Build and sustain excellent client relationships and engage with key project personnel to support them in successfully completing their projects.
• Align with the Salix values and working principles to support the strong company culture and positively represent the organisation.

• Support the Programme Manager in the performance management of their team.
• Take responsibility for key processes that support the delivery of all projects managed by the team.
