Sales Support Executive

Who are we?

Our journey started in 2013 with the mission of disrupting a heating industry reliant on unsustainable energy, which didn’t reflect the global need for an ecological solution.

Now, with five category-leading ecommerce stores and two innovative brands, Ignition has helped over 150,000 homeowners and businesses transition from outdated, inefficient heating to sustainable solutions. Simply put, we design products that our customers want and the planet needs. We’re changing the narrative.

Nestled between Leeds, Harrogate and York, our office buzzes with creativity and is full of curious minds, innovative thinkers, and customer champions. We listen, adapt, and rebuild based on what our customers tell us. From our products to ecommerce stores, everything we do is shaped by that approach.

Our hardworking and innovative team is at the heart of our success. We invest in them, recognise their achievements, and foster a culture that values growth, learning, and individual success. We are proud to provide the tools and environment to support professional growth and encourage each member of the team to push their own creativity and progression.
