Type: Full-time  Reports to: Chief Operating Officer   What We Do At Heat Geek, we are tackling one of the UK’s biggest carbon contributors: home heating. Nearly 20% of all UK carbon emissions stems from home heating  – and that contribution is even bigger on a global scale. At Heat Geek, we are changing that. By simplifying a traditionally complex industry and revolutionising the technology used by installers, we’re making low-carbon heating mainstream. We have already prevented over 1,000,000 kg of carbon from entering our atmosphere as of January 2026, and we aren’t stopping there!   Join Us! People are at the core of who we are and what we do. From decreasing homeowners’ energy bills to help with the cost of living, to empowering talented heating engineers to perform outstanding installations, to ensuring a greener world for all of us, we believe in the power of what we can all do together.  And we need passionate, talented, hard working people to be a part of this journey.  Your Mission Our Heat Geek community is excited to bring a Head of Finance into our team.
