Life at SSE
Whether you spend your day on top of a turbine at a wind farm, engaging directly with customers, supporting our power network infrastructure or in the hustle and bustle of one of our major offices; careers at SSE are challenging, motivating and make a direct impact on the UK’s journey to net zero. We take care of our people, our customers and the communities we serve.
We take a strategic approach to creating an inclusive workforce. Our culture encourages everyone to be themselves – no matter what your background is. And no matter what, safety is at the heart of everything we do - ‘if it’s not safe, we don’t do it’.

Women in Power
At SSE, we’re on a mission to empower more female talent in business leadership. We recognise everyone’s career aspirations look slightly different. We’re working to create a culture where equality, fairness and diversity are not just intentions but actions.
Inclusion & Diversity
Innovative solutions to climate change need diverse perspectives, different experiences and new skills. That’s why our plans to create a workplace where the principles of equality, fairness, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of everything we do.
Employee Benefits
At SSE, everyone gives their best every day to build a better world of energy. Our flexible benefits package is our way of saying thanks. It’s designed to support the important things in life, like family commitments and finances, wellbeing, and work / life balance. Take a look at some of the highlights.
