About Us
Energy Management Solutions (EMS) is a fast-growing engineering-led business operating across the UK, delivering specialist temporary power, critical power systems, generator solutions and infrastructure support.
We're building something ambitious and are looking for somebody who wants to grow with us.

You'll help turn emails into action plans, manage priorities, coordinate logistics, and support the wider business with administration and operational tasks.
