Salary & Bonus: Up to £80K base + £50K OTE bonus (uncapped) Location: Leatherhead (hybrid) Every refrigerated truck and trailer moving goods across the country has relied on diesel for decades. It's polluting, expensive, and the technology has not changed. Two companies have dominated the market, selling the same legacy technology with minor updates. Sunswap makes the electric refrigeration that's replacing it — zero emissions, lower operating costs, built from the ground up for how fleets actually operate. Endurance runs frozen goods for 24 hours on a single charge and chilled goods for up to two months. Those numbers matter on the road, and getting them right took years of obsessive engineering from a team drawn from automotive, aerospace, and motorsport. We have gone from founding to manufacturing at scale globally in just six years. We built our own production facility in Surrey. Today we are 200 times larger by square footage than when we started. We operate on three continents — units run across the UK, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Chile, and Australia. And we are trusted by major brands like Tesco, Ocado, Birds Eye, and Happy Eggs every single day. We have been named Sunday Times Best Place to Work in 2024, 2025 and 2026. We have won awards for innovation, technology, and marketing excellence. We have backing from leading investors including BGF, Barclays, Clean Growth Fund, Shell, and Rabobank. We have got the customers, the traction, and the momentum. Now we are taking this British-engineered product global — scaling manufacturing, opening new markets, and building the team that will make legacy polluting technology obsolete across the world. If you want to be part of a company that is setting new standards for the industry and scaling internationally, this is it. • 30 days’ annual leave + Bank Holidays, including a Wellbeing Day, • Sabbatical leave after 3 years with us, • 5 free counselling sessions every year, • Generous family leave ranging from 4 weeks to 4 months, • Monthly company lunches & quarterly socials, • Cycle to Work Scheme, • Season Ticket Loan, • Free Sunswap merch We are growing fast and the pipeline is there to prove it.
