Stiebel Eltron has strengthened its team following the rising demand for heat pumps, with six new staff members having already joined the company.
The renewable heating manufacturer has enjoyed sustained growth over the last year, with heat pump sales up by 70%. That’s led to a need for new staff members, and while six job roles have already been filled, it’s currently recruiting for three more.
As part of its growth, Stiebel Eltron will be carrying out training to upskill existing staff and ensure that high-quality support is not only provided at the point of purchase, but that technical support is available to customers throughout the duration of any installation or project
Stiebel Eltron also intends to support its installer base as the UK transitions towards renewable heating solutions and is developing plans for a new training centre and showroom at its facility in Bromborough. The scheme is expected to launch in Autumn 2022.
Mark McManus, Managing Director at Stiebel Eltron UK, noted, “The UK’s direction of travel on emissions is clear and that’s reflected in the huge rise in demand for heat pumps.
“However, there remains a long way to go for the country to achieve its target of installing 600,000 heat pumps by 2030.
“At Stiebel Eltron, we’re committed to providing the highest quality renewable solutions and it’s only right that we strengthen our own teams and processes as demand for our products continues to rise.
“That’s why we’re not only growing our team but investing in training and upgrades to our customer service programme as we look to support installers during this period.”
