Our people

Net zero ambitions

Srushti Deotale  - Continuous Improvement Business Analyst

Srushti Deotale - Continuous Improvement Business Analyst

"I joined SSE Airtricity over a year ago as a graduate straight out of university.

As part of the commercial graduate scheme, I had the chance to work with different teams such as the Digital, Product and Analytics team. I developed a real interest in communications and IT which is why I decided to apply for a business analyst role, which is the role I am now in.

There are a few reasons why I chose SSE Airtricity. I was impressed by the company’s net zero ambitions and its commitment to inclusion and diversity. The flexible first approach to working also appealed to me and this is something I take advantage of, working four days a week from home and one day a week in the office.

The people at SSE Airtricity are very helpful and warm and I really enjoy the work culture here. I’ve learnt so much since joining and have had plenty of opportunities for learning and development. I’ve completed Product Owner training and, as my career progresses, this is role I hope to get into."

Flexible first approach

Ho-lap Tse - Senior Project Manager

Ho-lap Tse - Senior Project Manager

"My name is Ho-lap Tse and I’m a Senior Project Manager at SSE Airtricity.

I joined the business 14 years ago as a Billing Administrator. Throughout the years I’ve changed roles and progressed my career, largely to the support and skills I’ve gained from my managers, Learning & Development and HR. The range of skills that I’ve developed here have enabled me to grow as a person and professionally.

In my current role, I manage Business transformations within the Business Change Directorate, One of the main projects I’m managing is a billing system change and digitisation project.  

SSE Airtricity is a fast growing dynamic business, environmentally minded with lots of opportunity for progression. The flexible first approach is fantastic for my work life balance and enables me to be more productive. At the moment, I choose to work 3 days at home and 2 days in the office.

The best part about working here is the people. We all want the best for the customer whilst making processes as efficient for staff as possible."

The SSE Airtricity Leadership Team and I really value the impact made by every single one of our employees within the company. The incredible teamwork we see day in and day out in SSE, with our customers front of mind, fills us with optimism for what we can do to achieve net zero, together. Our culture of collaboration, inclusivity, and opportunity is what sets us apart, and our employees are central to this, making SSE a fantastic place to start, grow and excel in your career.

Lots of opportunities for advancement

Dave Lynch - Operational Excellence Coach

Dave Lynch - Operational Excellence Coach

"My name is Dave Lynch, and I am an operational excellence coach at SSE Airtricity.

I started SSE Airtricity within Customer Service, answering the phones and helping customers. After 6 months, I moved to Home Moves, where I managed customer accounts whilst they moved addresses. I then moved to the Digital Customer service team and Training team, before progressing to my current role.

I work with the business as part of a team who help our department teams to identify waste in terms of time, effort and finances, and help coach them in lean methodology to eliminate that waste, increase productivity, and save money.

SSE Airtricity supported me through various qualifications, which has been great for my career development. The people at SSE Airtricity are very friendly, and there are a lot of opportunities for advancement."
