You can make a difference, with Haven Power
Why changing jobs could help change the world
Join us if you want to make a difference - to the world, as well as your career.
Whether it’s your first job, or another step in your impressive career, we’ll look beyond your experience and skills. Your ability to think differently, learn quickly and embrace change - we move fast - will be just as important.
What’s more, as the largest independently owned business in the Ipswich area, we offer competitive salaries and generous benefits to over 400 people (and counting).
Our people, our focus
Haven Power’s success centres on our ability to listen to customers and in-depth industry knowledge. Neither would be possible without recruiting and retaining the best people. So, our primary focus is you.
Your wellbeing
Because we take your mental wellbeing as seriously as your physical health, we’re providing mental health first aid training to team leaders and others from across the business.
Your personal development
Everyone at Haven Power gets the same opportunities for career progression. We believe in treating people fairly, and allowing anyone who wants to make progress to do so.
Diversity
We strive to attract a diverse workforce and create an inclusive environment; one where every individual feels valued and we all respect each other’s differences.
Equality
Haven Power has a legal - as well as moral - responsibility to abide by the legislation regarding discrimination against job applicants, employees, or individuals employed by contractors or customers.
Company Benefits
From good salaries to generous holidays, our benefits help to attract and retain the best people.
Holidays
Everyone gets 25 days’ annual leave, plus 8 bank holidays. You can buy up to 5 days in addition, and spread the cost over the year.
Pension scheme
We’ll enrol you in our scheme after 3 months of service and backdate contributions to your start date. We pay 4.5% into the scheme on your behalf; you can choose if you want to contribute and, if so, the rate.
Company enhanced maternity pay
If you qualify for the company’s maternity pay scheme, you’ll have the first 13 weeks increased to your full basic salary, 13 weeks topped up to half your basic salary and then 13 weeks statutory pay.
Career breaks
You have the option of unpaid leave for up to 3 months, or a longer career break of up to 5 years.

Our people's stories
Baks Kaur - Credit Management Advisor
I’ve been working here since May 2015 and have had support from my peers to develop my knowledge and understanding. I’m always learning new things - every day - and there are friendly colleagues all around who are willing to help. No one day is the same as the next, which I enjoy.
Lyndsay Cullen – Head of TPI Sales
I’ve been working for Haven Power for just over four years and started by managing a team of 10 Sales Administration personnel. The opportunity arose for me to manage Sales as well and I absolutely enjoyed and thrived in that role. This led to further responsibilities and I’m now Head of TPI Sales, which consists of four teams.
Lucy Ryman - Credit Management Team Leader
I joined Haven Power in September 2015 as a Credit Management Advisor in the Third Party Debt Team. I made it clear from the beginning that my ambition was to become a Team Leader and my line manager supported me every step of the way. In March 2017, I was successful in my interview for this Team Leader role in Credit Management.
Lisa Hauwert - Relationship Management Support
I joined Haven in November 2015 as a Customer Service Advisor in the I&C department. Through spending time with other departments as part of my development plan, I saw how important our Brokers are and how they have different needs to our direct customers. I now provide the support and admin function within this team.
Karl Brown - Senior Energy Consultant
I’ve been working at Haven Power for two years as a Direct Sales Advisor and love it - I’ve made some amazing friends. I have always been in sales and have slowly worked my way up to a senior position within the department. There's so much room for progression and the support from management is fantastic.
Rio Tricker - Change of Tenancy & Trace Co-ordinator
I have been working at Haven Power since 2016 and have had the privilege of gaining experience within different teams in the business. During my time here I have had lots of support and encouragement from the leadership team - something I haven’t experienced anywhere else.
