We’re powering change to build a better world of energy.  

A role with SSE – the leading developer and operator of low-carbon electricity in the UK and Ireland – is an opportunity to build a rewarding career, and a way to help build a world that’s cleaner, greener, and fairer for all.  

We’re investing over £12.5bn in the next 5 years on major projects like building the world’s largest windfarm, that will provide vital low-carbon electricity for millions of people. And building flexible networks to deliver the sustainable energy we all need to heat our homes and businesses, drive our cars, and power our lives. 

We’re a real Living Wage and Fair Tax Mark accredited company and currently employ 10,000 people across the UK and Ireland. We offer diverse career opportunities across the UK and Ireland, agile working and excellent benefits.

 

Whatever your role – from element-braving, asset-developing to customer-facing – you have the power to change your world. So join us on our journey to net zero.
