It is currently tracking 128% year-on-year revenue growth in the current financial year.<\/p>\n<p>Eleanor Quick has joined as account director, Emma Gorman has been appointed technical project manager, and Tom Ward has taken up a role in sales support.<\/p>\n<p>The latest hires bring Greenfields\u2019 team to 12, with the company planning to increase headcount to 15 during the first quarter of 2027.<\/p>\n<p>Liam Conway, managing director and co-founder of Greenfields Energy Group, said: \u201cIt&#8217;s been an exciting period of growth for Greenfields, and welcoming new people into the business is a huge part of that. The numbers are obviously something we&#8217;re proud of, but growth for us is about investing in the right people and giving our clients access to experienced specialists who truly understand their businesses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is particularly important as we invest more heavily in technology and AI. We see a huge opportunity to use technology to make us more efficient and want to use it to strengthen relationships, not replace them. Energy is becoming more complex, and we know that businesses still want knowledgeable people they can speak to and trust.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Greenfields works with businesses spending between \u00a3100,000 and \u00a35m a year on energy, helping them navigate procurement decisions, manage exposure to market volatility and control ongoing costs.<\/p>\n<p>Its client base includes manufacturing and industrial businesses, for which energy expenditure can have a significant impact on operating costs and profitability. Changes in production requirements, wholesale energy prices and regulation can all affect financial performance in these sectors.<\/p>\n<p>The recruitment drive forms part of the company\u2019s wider growth strategy, which includes expanding its UK client base while investing in technology and artificial intelligence to improve efficiency without losing its relationship-led approach to client service.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Derby business has added three employees and is targeting a workforce of 15 by early
