Job Description

An established manufacturer of insulation materials with over 25 years of experience are looking for a Head of Building Physics to support and develop their small, but proactive, technical team.

This ambitious company develops and manufacture insulation products to solve problems in difficult-to-insulate buildings.

They are currently looking for an architect familiar with roof, wall and floor build-ups as well as U-value and condensation risk calculations to join and lead their in-house technical team.

Ideally, you will have a depth of experience in building projects with a particular emphasis on retro-fitting older properties and a fabric first approach and be comfortable working in a small but dynamic environment where initiative and flexibility is expected in a company with a very open culture that encourages innovation.

Due to the nature of this role you will need to be able to travel to their manufacturing plant in Bolton and manage the team from the site. It's more of a hands on position rather than a remote role.
