Internship position

Better Generation is a young but rapidly growing renewable energy company that focuses on micro renewables. Last year we launched our first product, the Power Predictor, a renewable energy site assessment tool.

 

About you

We’re looking for a bright, enthusiastic and efficient graduate intern to join our company, based near Tower Bridge / Shad Thames. This would be a great opportunity to get a career started in the renewable energy field.  

 

Required:

  • graduate with science / engineering background (or can prove technical aptitude)
  • interest in micro renewables
  • lots of get up and go
  • excellent communication skills
  • fluent in written and spoken English
  • confident and well spoken
  • happy to network
  • a great researcher
  • readiness to muck in on a whole range of tasks

A bonus would be:

  • fluency in a foreign language, particularly German
  • experience of using html and CSS
  • working knowledge of Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign
  • experience of software development, particularly using php and sql

 

Experience in the renewables field isn’t a necessity... but enthusiasm is!

 

The work you'll be doing

We are looking for an intern to work across both the technical support and online marketing departments. 

 

Being a small and busy company the work you will be doing will be very varied, but the key tasks that you can expect to undertake will be to provide technical support to the Power Predictor customers, and to keep our online community up to date with exciting news from the world of micro renewables; new developments, inventions and announcements on funding and policy. There will also be opportunities to travel and represent Better Generation and the Power Predictor at trade shows, and work on the Better Generation website. Depending on your skills and experience there is also potential for you to get involved in the ongoing software and hardware development of the Power Predictor. 

 

The catch is that sadly we can’t offer any real money – just infinite cups of tea and weekly expenses. On the plus side, you get to work in an informal, friendly office environment, and gain experience in what we think is a pretty cutting-edge and exciting field.
