EVera Founder and CEO Steve Doyle said “I’m so proud that my team and I have been able to play a pivotal role in boosting the UK’s flourishing battery sector. We have worked in partnership with UKBIC to identify the skills and expertise needed to support the growth of the Centre and the industrialisation of the next generation of batteries for a range of applications, including electric vehicles and Energy Storage Systems.” He continued “EVera Recruitment currently has 100’s of vacancies across a whole range of exciting sectors from the automotive manufacturers developing the next generation electric vehicles and the pioneers in hydrogen HGVs to the gigafactories who are gearing up to produce cutting edge batteries and the innovators developing new forms of eMobility. Now is a great time to work in the burgeoning EV sector and potentially realise a decent pay increase in this highly technical and competitive sector”.
