Help tackle climate change and earn up to £50,000 a year as a Domestic Energy Assessor

It won't have escaped your notice that global warming, climate change and energy efficiency have been dominating the news lately. Well, if you are interested in helping to save the planet in a completely new carbon-saving career, working flexibly and looking forward to really exciting prospects, then becoming a Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA) is for you.

New government legislation has produced a need for DEAs to carry out 2 million Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) every year. To meet the enormous demand, energy-assessors.com has announced their need to recruit and employ at least 200 Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs) and to place business to a further 300 self-employed consultants. If you are looking for employment they can guarantee you an interview, and packages of up to £50,000 per annum are available. Alternatively for those preferring a self-employed solution they also have consultancy opportunities throughout the UK.

Stephen Callaghan, Chief Executive of energy-assessors.com said: "For our employed DEAs, earning a basic salary of up to £30,000 and on-target earnings of up to £50,000 is a realistic and achievable expectation. We have an urgent requirement for full-time, part-time or consultant Energy Assessors and can provide access to subsidised training. The Energy Assessor's role in this new process is a critical job, as Energy Performance Certificates will give the buying and selling public valuable information for the first time about the energy efficiency of properties, and practical steps to reduce carbon emissions and save on energy bills."

It's not often that a brand new profession is created by legislation in this way, but it is essential for anyone wanting to take advantage of the opportunity and carry out Energy Performance Certificates to go through a process of training, qualification and accreditation. As an organisation that has been at the centre of the Government's home buying and selling reforms over the past 10 years energy-assessors.com has developed a unique market-leading position for delivering in-depth, highly authoritative training and business packages. What's more, they are well-connected in the current surveying and estate agency industry, a vital ingredient when it comes to finding a job once you have qualified.

As their qualification and assessment process takes only 12 weeks from start to finish, even for those who have no previous experience in surveying for energy rating purposes, candidates should be ready for action for 1 June 2007 - the date the Government has set for the official introduction of Energy Performance Certificates and Home Information Packs in England and Wales.

So, do you think you have the energy to be part of this new and lucrative industry...?
