Head of Heating Operations

I’m looking for a driven, hands-on Head of Heating Operations to build, scale, and run the heating operations function as my client grows. This is a high-impact role where you’ll own how their heating and cooling assets move from project delivery into high-performing, customer-ready operations.

You’ll work across teams, solve real-world operational challenges, and help shape the systems, processes, and culture that will support their next stage of growth.

My client is a growing company driving the energy transition through decentralized solutions – from solar and battery systems to electric vehicle charging, CHP, and hydrogen projects.

What you’ll own

• End-to-end operational readiness and handover of heating & cooling projects (heat pumps, boilers, CHP, cooling, metering, digital systems)

• Performance and reliability of live systems – making sure customers get what they promise

• Billing, metering accuracy, and revenue assurance

• O&M partner performance and customer support experience

• Building scalable processes, SOPs, and operational tools (including Odoo and other systems)

• Leading and growing a high-performing operations team

• Working closely with engineering, EPC, commercial teams, and external partners to keep projects moving fast and smoothly

What you bring

• Strong operational leadership in energy, utilities, heating, or infrastructure

• Comfort working in fast-moving, evolving environments

• Ability to move between strategy and hands-on problem solving

• Data-driven mindset and strong ownership mentality

• Excellent stakeholder and team leadership skills

Why this role is exciting

• Build and scale a core function in a fast-growing business

• Direct impact on decarbonisation and the energy transition

• High ownership, fast decision-making, and real influence on how we operate
