County Durham energy consultancy ready to scale up by creating 120 new jobs

A County Durham consultancy firm which provides energy solutions tailored to UK businesses is set to scale up its operations across the North of England to meet demand for its services.

Consett based Fusion for Business (FFB) is creating 120 new jobs with 20 allocated in the North East and 100 identified to be based from its new 4,000 square foot office at Exchange Quay in Salford Quays, Manchester.

Despite the crisis impacting households, businesses are also feeling the pressure and are just as concerned about the sustainability of their existing energy supplier, broker/consultant but also rising energy prices which are significantly higher than before.

FFB supports businesses to help them navigate through these challenging times and is scaling up operations and rapidly increasing headcount to deal with the rise in demand from businesses for energy efficiency solutions that will help them reduce energy usage and costs.

Chris Charlton, CEO at Fusion for Business, commented: “We are really excited to scale up our operations in County Durham and Manchester to meet the demand for our services.

“It’s a very challenging market for businesses right now and we are supporting customers by being able to identify potential revenue income from historical mis-sold energy supply contract claims through honest and transparent energy procurement.

“The roles that have been created include energy consultants, sales executives and business development managers and I’d particularly welcome applications from anyone who has experience and worked within the energy sector but may have been made redundant or are at threat of redundancy.

FFB works closely with organisations such as Hipperson Consulting, who have a long and established professional relationship with OFGEM, BEIS and other governing bodies in the energy market.

Its sister company, Intelligent Energy Management 360 (iEM360), works with businesses to help them become more energy efficient and provides access to funding to deliver and implement cost saving energy efficient projects, helping them meet Net Zero targets.
