ENERGY FROM THE ELEMENTS
Come And Join Our Team
We are working in a very exciting period in the Energy Sector in Scotland. Some believe this period will be the third energy revolution. Following the invention of steam power and the introduction of electricity, the focus on renewable and low-carbon energy over the next 20 -30 years has the potential to be transformational for us and how we live and work.
Proterra Energy was very lucky to have entered this sector almost 12 years ago and the experience and skills that we have built up in that period has catapulted us into leading some of the changes in this fast-moving and competitive sector. It brings out the best in us, our innovation, our problem solving and our teamwork.
Set against this backdrop our company and our team has grown, and continues to grow. We are looking for a Graduate Engineer and an experienced Mechanical Engineer to join the guys and girls currently delivering the design, installation and servicing of renewable energy systems.
Our Clients range from larger domestic sites to Estates, Distilleries and the Public Sector. Our sites span remote lighthouses to island installations and iconic buildings (but also include garages, renewably powered electric gates and farm sheds!).
If you would like to join our team then we would be delighted to hear from you. More information is below.
