Description
Join us, be part of more.
We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it.
About your team:
At Centrica Business Solutions, we’re proud to partner with over 7,000 organisations globally – helping them to balance planet, with profit. We build, operate and maintain onsite, large-scale energy assets like Solar PV and Combined Heat and Power – to help businesses to save the planet and save money. We’re also transforming the UK’s energy landscape by partnering with landowners and developers to build a 900MW portfolio of new grid-scale solar farms and battery storage assets.
A Control Room Operator is required for a key role in our Energy & Controls Centre, which forms part of the O&M function of Centrica Business Solutions (CBS). The role focuses on the monitoring on a range of remote assets including Peaking Plant Gas Engines, Building Energy Management System (BEMS), Combined Heat and Power units (CHP), Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHP), solar PV and Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) installations.
The Control Room is based in Windsor and requires the CRO to be onsite. You will complete a 6 person team, providing a 24/7 service. The shift pattern is yet to be confirmed but may include nightshifts.
The Control Room Operator role would suit a candidate who possesses the skills necessary to effectively interpret data from multiple sources, react promptly to event notifications and follow established procedures to rectify and escalate issues, in line with contractual obligations. Whilst on duty the Control Room Operator, often working alone is responsible for taking initiative and making decisions, he/she plays a key role in limiting our financial exposure related to unplanned outages. Use of common Windows software will be required daily.
