We care for our employees

Warmworks is committed to providing affordable warmth to homes, families and communities across the country. Since 2015, we have helped tens of thousands of people to better manage their energy use and live warmer, happier, healthier lives.

We were founded in 2015 as a joint venture partnership between Energy Saving Trust, Changeworks and Everwarm.

Since then, we have supported more than 35,000 households in Scotland as the Managing Agent of the Scottish Government’s national fuel poverty scheme, Warmer Homes Scotland.

We have continued to expand our work, taking on new contracts and building our presence across the UK. We now have more than 100 members of staff based at our offices in Edinburgh, London, Newcastle and Kirkwall.

About our work

Our work is a key part of the drive to reduce carbon emissions and the transition to a net zero society. Our role is to ensure that this transition to low-carbon living, with its rapid shift towards new, renewable technologies in people’s homes, includes everyone, especially those who need extra help and support to adapt to change.

We also recognise that we have a role in supporting the communities in which we work and live. This has meant creating jobs and training opportunities, supporting communities with approaches tailored to their needs, and leaving a real, lasting legacy. Since we were founded in 2015, we have supported the creation of more than 150 apprenticeships in our supply chain, more than 700 jobs, and over 3,000 training opportunities.

We are proud of our work and the difference we make in people’s lives. This is made possible by our team and our partners, who understand that our values and our way of doing business will always be at the heart of what we do. Our commitment to our values, to doing the right thing by our people, our customers and our communities, is what defines us as a business.

Common questions

Who are Warmworks?

Formed in 2015, Warmworks is a joint venture partnership between three organisations with considerable experience and understanding of our industry and the customers we serve. These organisations are Energy Saving Trust, Everwarm and Changeworks. We are committed to providing affordable warmth to homes, families and communities across the country.

What does Warmworks do?

We deliver a range of contracts across the country, from the Orkney Islands to South East England, aimed at helping people to manage their energy costs by improving the energy efficiency of their home. We are also the Managing Agent of the Scottish Government’s national fuel poverty scheme, Warmer Homes Scotland. Since the scheme was launched in 2015, we have supported more than 35,000 people across Scotland to stay warm in their home, save against their energy bills and make their home more energy efficient. For information about all the contracts and projects we manage, visit the Our Work page of our website.  

Warmworks is a Managing Agent – what does this mean?

We are the Managing Agent for most of the projects we deliver.  This means we oversee the installation of heating, energy efficiency and insulation work in our customers’ homes, from the initial survey where we’ll discuss the measures that could be installed, right through to a final inspection to make sure everything meets our rigorous safety and quality standards.

How does Warmworks help communities?

We recognise that we have a role in supporting the communities in which we work and live. This has meant working to create jobs and training opportunities, supporting communities with approaches tailored to their needs, and leaving a real, lasting legacy. Since we were founded in 2015, we have supported the creation of more than 150 apprenticeships in our supply chain, more than 700 jobs, and over 3,000 training opportunities. For more information about how we support local communities, visit the Our communities page of our website.

What is Warmworks’ supply chain?

We manage a network of more than 20 registered and accredited sub-contractors, known as our supply chain, who help us provide a first-class service to our customers.  Each sub-contractor is continually assessed by a specially designed performance management system. The aim of this is to help reassure our customers that they will receive high quality workmanship, that the people carrying out work in their home are professional and trustworthy, and that our sub-contractors are able to deal with any questions or concerns. 

What is Warmworks’ inclusive service commitment?

We are dedicated to providing an inclusive service that takes account of our customers’ individual needs.  We understand that some of our customers will often need extra support. Our service has been specifically designed to allow us to meet these needs wherever we can.
