  • Electrical Engineering: 4 years (required)

    Land Energy has been at the forefront of biomass energy in the UK for nearly 20 years. In the last 3 years our operations have expanded rapidly as we move into serving domestic as well as commercial customers with a mix of new products and services. Operations now extend across 5 sites in the UK and encompass nearly 100 employees, with sales to all parts of the UK and Ireland.


  • Safety is core to what we do. Our Girvan production site now stretches across 15 acres and every year we process 300,000 tonnes of feedstock which requires 25,000 heavy vehicle movements for in and outbound deliveries. We also make around 10,000 customer deliveries per annum to all destinations in the UK, from a combination of our own trucking fleet and using third party hauliers.

    We need to ensure that this is all done safely and without incident, day-in, day-out.

    We're an inquisitive lot, never happy with the status quo and always looking for new ways to improve our products and processes. You'll need to be comfortable in this environment, whilst maintaining a strong team ethos
