Location is one of the big selling points for this organisation! Situated out of the busy centre of Cambridge and nestled in the countryside, anyone joining this team will get the best of both worlds.
And what they are doing is very special; they've developed (and recently launched!) a clean, sustainable global 21st century high-density energy storage system.
The ONE Group are proud to have been instrumental in their growth and as they embark on the next part of their journey through scale-up, a crucial new hire.
We're on the lookout for a Development Engineer. This is likely to be a Chemical or Mechanical Engineer who has recently finished their PhD and wants to develop their career within a small (but growing!) R&D team in industry, scaling up technology and bringing their engineering strengths to the team.
It could also be a more experienced Engineer - we are interested to hear what you can potentially bring to the table!
