The Kensa Group represents award-winning British engineering at its finest - the UKs leading manufacturer of ground source heat pumps (Kensa Heat Pumps), and the UKs pioneer of their mass-scale installation (Kensa Contracting).

The Kensa Group is transforming how Briton's heat their homes, delivering a 21st century alternative to the gas grid. With over two decades of proven expertise in low carbon technology, we want to connect people in homes and businesses across the UK to cleaner, greener, and cheaper heat. Together, we will meet the UK's ambition to install 600,000 heat pumps every year by 2028 and be net zero by 2050.

The Kensa Group is the leading manufacturer and installer of ground source heat pumps and is poised for rapid growth. Octopus Energy and Legal and General Capital invested £70m in 2023 to enable the business to rapidly grow and install 50,000 heat pumps a year by 2030. This will drive down costs of heat pumps and reduce reliance on polluting gas boilers.

This investment will make heat pumps even more accessible to more properties, including retrofits for social housing, terraced housing and non-domestic buildings. It will also enable Kensa to offer house builders, housing associations and non-domestic customers their 'Networked Heat Pumps' solutions at a lower cost. This effectively creates a new renewable asset class, kick-starting a sector that could exceed £1bn by 2030.

Kensa has been awarded a contract to install Ground Source Heat Pumps into 7 existing tower blocks in Watford. The Site Manager role is a 12-month contract (with possible extension) for the duration of the project. It is a key role to ensure the successful delivery of the project and will require someone with experience of managing sites with groundworks and retrofit heating installations within high rise building.
