Midlands-based energy consultancy Greenfields Energy Group has strengthened its growing team with the appointment of Gurbinder Nijjar as Account Director.

Gurbinder brings more than 20 years of experience in the energy industry, with extensive knowledge of energy procurement, commercial management and client relationships.

In his new role, Gurbinder will manage client accounts, providing expert advice on energy procurement, contract management and ongoing energy costs, while ensuring clients continue to receive the high level of personal service Greenfields is known for.

The appointment comes during a period of significant growth for Greenfields, which has recently welcomed three additional team members, bringing its workforce to 13, and opened its flagship Birmingham office at Somerset House in the city centre.

Gurbinder Nijjar said: “What attracted me to Greenfields was the opportunity to join a growing and ambitious business and make a meaningful contribution to its development.

“Energy procurement is about much more than securing the lowest price. Businesses need to understand their consumption, contract structure and exposure to risk to make informed decisions.

“A good energy broker should be a trusted partner, providing clear, transparent advice and ongoing support. I'm looking forward to using my experience to help Greenfields' clients manage their energy costs and plan with confidence.”

Liam Conway, Managing Director and Co-Founder of Greenfields Energy Group, said:

“Gurbinder brings a huge amount of industry experience and a strong understanding of what businesses need from their energy adviser.

“As we continue to grow, it's important that we invest in experienced people who can build lasting relationships with our clients and provide the level of service that sets Greenfields apart.

“Gurbinder will be a great addition to the team as we continue to expand our work with businesses across the Midlands and beyond.”

Greenfields Energy Group provides energy procurement, risk management and energy bureau services to businesses across the UK, with particular expertise in supporting manufacturing and industrial businesses.
