Domestic Energy Surveyors Opportunity

Domestic energy surveyors required – free training.

We arrange the recruitment and training of people to do surveys for loft insulation and cavity wall insulation where 80% of the householders (tenants or owners) get the insulation free from some Government funded scheme. Surveyors can typically earn £600 + per week and are expected to be able to canvass for work as well as do the surveys. In addition some surveyors will become team leaders and earn additional income. We arrange to send respondents information on this opportunity and a response form to fill in to apply for the job – which could be employed or self employed.


We have a direct employment opportunity (or self-employed if you prefer) for people that want to get into domestic energy conservation as a career where there is a definite need and on-going contracts for surveyors working with our clients Energy Services organisation where the training of suitable candidates is provided free of charge following a brief previous interview. Free training is over 1-3 days at a suitable local site depending on the amount (if any) of relevant experience.

This opportunity is not the one directly associated with the HIPs (home information packs) and training of DEAs (domestic energy assessors) to award EPCs (energy performance certificates) to people that want to sell their homes (usually through estate agents). This area has suffered a considerable loss of business with the downturn in the housing market and economy and the delays introduced by the Government. Trained DEAs will, however, be able to easily perform the surveys that our clients promote and requires minimal training. Our client also performs and produce EPCs for domestic properties and for commercial properties as well as SAP, RDSAP, EcoHomes, Air Leakage testing, SBEM calcs and BREEAM work.

Our clients are looking for people to train to perform simple site surveys (standard forms to fill in) to assess the current situation (and prospects for improvement) in a domestic property. These include:

Loft insulation and cavity wall insulation surveys (The vast majority of the surveys that our clients do)
Possible improvement to boilers or water heaters surveys
Decent Homes surveys

All of the above areas offer a continuous prospect for long term surveys and employment opportunity. Surveyors are paid a basic wage (usually £15,000 pa) plus a good bonus for each property surveyed (or a good larger fee for each survey if self employed). Hours of employment are 37.5 hours a week and are often flexible and the survey work can usually be done at evenings and weekends which can leave a considerable amount of other time available during the day for candidates to do other things. Our clients are in control of the volume of work that they perform – and are not dependent on the housing market. Most surveyors are earning between £600 and £1,200 per week – depending on the hours that they are prepared to devote.

Our client has approx. 80 surveyors at present and is looking to employ another 100 in the near future (in areas all over the UK) with lots of prospects also in the greater London area. Our clients size and track record enables them to be taken seriously by councils and local authorities who are happy to negotiate programmes to be rolled out in their areas. They therefore usually work in partnership with local councils who will provide them with a letter introducing them to their ratepayers as a company that they are working in partnership with to deliver this service. This helps considerably when introducing the service and most of the homeowners or tenants contacted qualify for the remedial work to be done free of charge. There are existing and forward funds available for this service from a combination of Government and Local Authorities and Energy Suppliers for wage earning families as well as those on benefits or income support or the elderly or disabled.

In order to qualify for training and employment candidates need to be able to demonstrate a desire to work at this the equivalent of full time and be prepared to canvass for work (not difficult - drop off copy letters of introduction and follow up with a visit) as well as perform the surveys. They will preferably be ambitious, have transport, good neat/tidy appearance and a reasonably good command of English language. Suitable candidates may be able to become Team Leaders when they have fulfilled a time as a surveyor.

Candidates that are interested should e-mail us confirming the position they are interested in enabling a response form to be forwarded by our clients:

DETAILED INFORMATION
Our clients principal corporate aim for industry, commerce, public sector and homeowners is known as Carbon Reduction and/or Carbon Management. This is typically the reduction of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and other 'greenhouse gas' emissions which are responsible for global warming & climate change. The UK Government declares that climate change is the World's 'biggest threat' and that the UK needs a 'step change in energy efficiency' and has committed to a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions by the year 2010 and 60% by 2050 (Kyoto Accord etc.). This target is to be mainly achieved by burning less fossil fuels in the factory, power station, commerce or home using improved techniques or alternative systems. UK initiatives and funding through theEnergy Saving Trust Energy Conservation - The ability to achieve the same level of production, comfort & transport using less energy by reducing wastage and improving efficiency.
Renewable & Alternative Energy Systems - The ability to use alternative forms of energy such as wind, solar, bio-mass, hydro-electric, hydrogen, air/water/ground source and geothermal to replace fossil fuels with zero, net zero or reduced carbon emissions.
This unique prospect and investment in your future, to further your career with our assistance, will help you to provide services and/or products that are needed, fashionable, topical, marketable, attractive to end users and are often supported and funded by the UK Government. Our services and products provide carbon reduction, reduce CO2 emissions, save operating costs, protect the environment and reduce the need for reliance on mineral deposits or oil/gas/coal reserves. We are in the right place at the right time to take advantage of the huge new market for these services. You can start as a part time self-employed associate to minimise your financial exposure and then as fees are earned take on more involvement. Alternatively, if in the targeted geographical areas, you can be directly employed by one of our affiliated companies as a home energy efficiency surveyor on a basic wage plus a bonus based on the number of surveys completed. We provide assistance in all of the areas below to enable you, if suitable, to invest in a career and take up some of the expertise.
You can decide to work for clients in either or both of the following areas:
Domestic homeowners
– to promote domestic energy efficiency performance surveys for funded loft and cavity wall insulation and possibly condensing boiler replacements and also in many cases for “Decent Homes” – and/or
<,b>Industrial, commercial and public sector clients
– to work for our clients or one of their affiliated companies to promote initially free site energy scoping surveys followed by other fee paying consultancy work and/or capital projects.
The opportunities, therefore, fall into the following 5 main categories (plus 1 additional longer term sustainable living category) - all of which are very topical and needed in the industrial, commercial, public sector and domestic areas and are expanded in more detail, with other opportunities, in our attached documentation. The UK market for the supply and installation of high efficiency energy saving systems and equipment and renewable energy systems is considerable. The free consultancy or site scoping visits are the door-opener to the follow-on services which can offer the greatest earnings opportunity. The 5 areas of expertise and potential available through us or our affiliated companies are:
Home Energy Efficiency
