At Bellrock, we harness technology to give our customers an experience that not only leaves them with advanced building systems, but with peace of mind. We unlock that by being technology-led, but people-driven. As part of Bellrock, you’ll get everything you need to be your best at work - because our people are the heart of our business.

Carbon Architecture is an established, expanding company that has a strong reputation for delivering solutions which help businesses reduce Carbon, Energy, and Waste.

Carbon Architecture also has a Data Analytics platform (InMetriks), which is an energy data analytics service for industry and commercial buildings, focusing on energy, water, and waste minimization.

Working closely with the Senior Development Managers, you will be responsible for generating new business from a designated territory of UK businesses, a mix of manufacturing, brewing, real estate, and public sector, explaining the benefits of Carbon Architecture’s portfolio of products and services, and securing new clients with a particular emphasis on Green Mark and InMetriks.
