You will be part of a team of 4 developers (and growing) responsible for the ongoing development of Shared Works, Novoville’s innovative platform for retrofit projects. Shared Works is at the forefront of the fight to improve our homes and reduce their carbon emissions (20% of the UK total!). By building software for governments, contractors, and residents to collaborate effectively across the customer journey, we help the industry work smarter, make people’s homes more comfortable, and reduce their impact on the climate. Shared Works is financially supported by the Scottish Government, European Union, and UK Government. We presented Shared Works at COP26. We are partners of 10+ Scottish Councils, Birmingham Council, and the West Midlands Combined Authority.
