Meet The Team

Josh founded Greenscape Energy over 14 years ago. He started out from a garage with his uncle, with a single conviction: that local people needed an honest, reliable renewable energy installer they could actually trust. He has led the company through every stage of the UK's renewable journey since then, from the early solar boom, through the FIT scheme ending, into battery storage, and now the rapid growth of heat pumps, air conditioning and commercial-scale projects.

In 14 years, plenty of cowboy operators have come and gone. Greenscape has kept the same approach the whole way: do the right thing for the customer, every time, regardless of whether it is the easiest thing to sell. That is what built the 95% recommendation rate, and that is what continues to define how the company operates today.

“The reason we have grown is simple. We listen, and we recommend what is right for the customer, not what is easiest to sell. Trust builds naturally when you do that. We have grown one honest conversation at a time.”

- Josh Young, CEO

Guy joined in 2024 from ISG, one of the UK's largest construction firms, where he ran Group Operational Excellence. He runs the operational engine at Greenscape today: how installs get scheduled, how the warehouse stocks the right kit, how customer issues get resolved, how the business holds itself to the standards customers see in the reviews.

Guy is rarely customer-facing. His influence is in every install that runs to time, every callback that gets answered on the same day, every job that does not become a complaint. The reason the company has scaled from a small Suffolk installer to a team of 70 without the wheels coming off is largely down to the work Guy does behind the scenes.

“My job is to make sure every part of the business runs cleanly, so that every customer feels the benefit. Behind every good install is good planning. That is where I focus.”

- Guy Fairweather, COO

Maria plays a central role in keeping Greenscape aligned, organised and moving forward. She works closely with the senior leadership team across the business, helping to turn strategic priorities into practical action while making sure the important details do not get lost along the way.

Her remit is broad: people, governance, health and safety, compliance, business systems, external relationships and operational support. In practice that means she is often the link between departments, making sure the right people are connected and that projects continue to progress. The job involves anticipating challenges before they land, bringing structure to complex situations, and helping the business make well-informed decisions as it continues to evolve.

Approachable but determined. Passionate about an environment where people communicate openly, take ownership and work together towards the same goal. Her focus is always on keeping Greenscape successful, well-run, responsible and a positive place to work.

“My role is about joining the dots. Making sure the right conversations happen, the details are covered and we keep moving in the same direction. When people work together with clarity and a shared purpose, the whole business is stronger.”

- Maria Baines, Chief of Staff

Reggie leads commercial growth at Greenscape. Sales, marketing, brand and the long-term commercial direction of the business. He sets the tone for how we go to market and how we talk about what we do, and he has been with the company since the early days. The customer journey that today's customers experience has been shaped over the years by his work.

Reggie's role spans where the next wave of customers comes from, how proposals are presented, what kind of campaigns we run, and how the four product divisions (solar, batteries, heat pumps, air conditioning) are positioned together as one coherent offer. He is rarely on the tools but he is rarely far from them either; commercial decisions at Greenscape get tested against what the install team can actually deliver before they go anywhere near a customer.

“Renewables is one of the few industries where the work you do today is still saving customers money 25 years later. That is a brilliant thing to be selling. My job is to make sure the way we talk about it stays as honest as the work itself.”

- Reggie Read, Head of Sales, Marketing and Business Strategy

Pat leads the Renewable Energy Specialist team, our employed surveyors who visit customers' homes, design systems, and put together proposals. He is also the first point of contact for most of our commercial customers and for the council partnerships that bring residential work in.

Pat's job is to keep the survey and proposal process at the standard customers expect. Every Renewable Energy Specialist on the team works to a common methodology that he has shaped: walk the property, look at the bills, model the savings honestly, recommend the right system rather than the biggest one, and put it all in writing within five working days. He carries a meaningful share of the customer load himself, particularly on the larger residential and commercial projects, and he is usually the name customers ask for by their second call.

“What I love about this job is that we’re not selling anything we can’t prove. The maths is the maths, and the results speak for themselves. We’ve built a business where honesty and transparency are at the heart of what we do, and that naturally becomes our strongest sales pitch. That’s a rare position to be in.”

- Patrick Rickards, Surveyor Operations Manager

Sarah joined Greenscape six years ago, after a 15-year corporate career in customer operations across insurance and recruitment, with a break in between to raise her family. She has held several roles across the business since joining, which means she knows how the pieces fit together better than most.

Today Sarah heads the heating operations function (everything from heat pump survey through commissioning, including the BUS grant paperwork end-to-end) and the wider business support team that customers interact with between sale and install. Fair, firm and supportive in equal measure. The reason proposals arrive when they say they will, the reason snags get fixed on the first visit rather than the third, the reason the phone gets answered, is largely Sarah's doing.

“I love that this is a job where you can genuinely make a customer's year better. Not in a small way. In a 'their heating bill has dropped 70% and their house is finally warm year-round' kind of way. The team here cares about that and it shows up in everything we do.”

- Sarah Gallagher, Head of Operations (Heating) and Business Support

Phil started on the tools as an on-site electrician and has spent 20+ years in building services and renewable energy. He now leads the operational side of every domestic solar project and signs off on the compliance work end-to-end. His ISO 9001 diploma and his electrical background sit behind every install we send out the door.

His job is to make sure every install gets done right the first time, safely, to spec, and to the standards we publish. If a job is going to slip, Phil will be the one who sees it three days before it slips and fixes it. We do not take compliance lightly and Phil is the reason we get to say that.

“Compliance and delivery go hand in hand. Every system we install reflects the trust customers put in Greenscape. Safe, efficient, and built on quality.”

- Phil Willgress, Head of Operations (Solar) and Compliance Lead

Jordan has 12+ years of finance experience and runs the books at Greenscape. Budgets, cash flow, performance reporting, supplier relationships, capital allocation. His job is making sure the business stays financially resilient so it can keep doing the work it does for customers without taking shortcuts on quality or service.

Jordan also leads on commercial financing structures for our customer projects: capital allowance modelling, asset finance pathways, the PPA underwriting we arrange with funding partners. The work is technical but the principle is the same as the rest of the company. Help the customer find the right answer, not the answer that maximises our margin on one job.

“Renewable energy gets called expensive, but it is one of the few investments most households can make where the return is genuinely guaranteed by physics. The sun comes up tomorrow. The numbers add up. I like working somewhere the financial story matches the marketing story, which honestly is not always the case in this industry.”

- Jordan King, Head of Finance

Rex has run the warehouse and the vehicle fleet at Greenscape for nearly three years. He is the reason every install van leaves the depot with the right kit, in the right order, on the right day. Practical, organised, hard-working, and quietly central to the company. When something is missing on an install day, the install does not run. When everything is there, nobody notices, which is exactly how Rex wants it.

Beyond the warehouse and the fleet, Rex looks after the working environment for the install teams, the safety standards in the warehouse, and the day-to-day relationships with our delivery partners.

“I get a real buzz out of knowing that every van we send out has the right kit to give a customer a working solar system or heat pump by the end of the day. It is unglamorous work behind the scenes, but it is what makes the customer experience feel effortless. That matters to me.”

- Rex Mattocks, Warehouse and Fleet Manager

Dan has been in solar and battery for over 10 years. He heads our technical function: the people our installers call when something on site is not behaving, the people we route the tough customer questions to, and the people who write the customer guides for every new product we add to the range. Calm under pressure, deeply technical, and very generous with what he knows.

Dan is also the person who tests every new battery, inverter or hybrid before we add it to our line-up. If we are installing it in your house, Dan has already put one in his own. The Solis specialism, the Sigenergy partnership, the Adia Thermal integration with Clivet, the Bosch AC selection: he has had a hand in every brand decision the company has made.

“Renewables is the only industry I have worked in where the technology genuinely keeps getting better and the customer keeps coming out ahead. Five years ago a 5 kW battery was the headline. Now it is 16 kW with whole-home backup. In another five years it will be vehicle-to-grid as standard. I love the pace of it, and I love helping our customers stay on the right side of every shift.”

- Daniel Elmer, Head of Technical
