Product Owner II

We are a technology business operating in the global energy sector.

ENSEK has become the go-to option for top energy suppliers across the globe. Why? Because our technology represents a significant step change away from the legacy systems that have historically dominated the market. It’s also considerably more cost-effective to adopt the ENSEK solution, with no compromise on customer service or standards.

But the primary reason why ENSEK is the best choice in energy supplier software is because of the people who work here, their enthusiasm, energy, and the way they support their colleagues. All our clients comment on the great people we have. Our people are our superpower.

That is where you come in.
