Great British Energy’s chief executive says the company is recruiting “about two people a week” and plans to grow its Aberdeen workforce to around 300 people by the middle of 2027.

The announcement comes as the government-backed energy firm outlines staffing targets for its operations in Scotland. The reported figures indicate a steady hiring pace rather than a single large recruitment drive. While the available reports focus on the expected number of employees and the timeline for reaching it, they do not provide additional detail in these sources on which roles are being filled, the recruitment timeframe for earlier hiring stages, or any changes to overall company headcount beyond the Aberdeen plan.
