About Us
We're a fast-growing utilities consultancy based in Shoreditch, helping businesses reduce costs and make informed purchasing decisions across energy, payment services, telecoms, waste, and water. By partnering with over 50 leading suppliers, we provide tailored solutions that deliver real value to our customers.
As our business continues to grow, we're investing in the next generation of sales talent through our apprenticeship programme. We're moving towards a more consultative approach to selling, focused on understanding customer needs, building long-term relationships and delivering the right solutions rather than simply making sales.

We're looking for individuals that are looking to build their customer service skills and learn about sales with career progression potential. No previous sales experience is required. What matters most is your attitude, willingness to learn and ambition to develop a successful career.
You'll begin your journey in a Sales Development and Lead Generation role, learning how to engage with businesses, understand their challenges and identify opportunities for our consultancy team. Through structured training, mentoring and apprenticeship learning, you'll develop the skills needed to become a successful consultative sales professional.
