Job Description

Ready to lead a sales team where data drives decisions, performance creates impact, and every customer conversation creates value? If you're passionate about building high-performing teams, using insight to influence outcomes, and helping businesses navigate a changing energy landscape, this could be your next move.

Your ability to turn data into action will directly contribute to profitable growth while supporting EDF's journey towards An Electric Britain.
