Account Manager, The Electric Car Scheme

From the moment you walk into the office, you realise that the team is dedicated to driving success. Everyone feels like a part of the company, and therefore they have the energy and commitment to create a hardworking environment and serve new, current, and old customers to the best of their abilities.

The Electric Car Scheme has ambitious goals, which translates to challenging projects to achieve these goals. You are empowered to learn processes, develop new ones and train the team based on your findings. The motto is "If you owned the business, what would you do?"

One of The Electric Car Scheme values is open communication and transparency, and this is evident in the environment they created. Everyone is available to help answer questions, and decisions can questioned, pitched, and discussed so everyone can bring in their ideas.

At The Electric Car Scheme, you are a valued member of the team. Your thoughts and opinions will be recognised and you will be encouraged to progress in your career. There are lots of opportunities for growth too, which I really appreciate.

My manager is very supportive. He cares about my career development and what's going on in my life outside work. There are frequently check-ins about my performance - where I'm doing well and where I can improve which is very helpful.

The Electric Car Scheme aims to get more people in EVs whilst saving money. I like how the product champions net-zero initiatives whilst making it easy for people to get into EVs - what's not to love?

I've had a fantastic time so far at The Electric Car Scheme! The company is expanding quickly but is dedicated to remaining core to its mission. Naturally, with any growing organisation there can be growing pains, however management are quick to address any issues, and work with the wider team to ensure that there's minimum disruption to work. I would like to give a special shout-out to Chris, who has been supportive every step of the way. He's a fantastic manager and an asset to ECS. He's helped me with everything from emotional support to helping my confidence grow.

In many sales roles it can feel a little bit like it's a dog eat dog world. However, this type of workplace is not one that I have experienced at ESC. Team work is celebrated as much as individual success and people are genuinely happy for you when you achieve a goal. Recognition is something that is formalised each week in our Friday debriefs and it feels as though management really think about who deserves to be recognised each time.

ECS is growing at lightning speed. The opportunities for progression are frequent and open to us all. There's a clear route to progression and senior leaders will even call you to encourage you to put your hat in the ring for a role they believe you may be suited to.

At The Electric Car Scheme, you are encouraged wholeheartedly to put your ideas forward from day one. In my second week, a meeting was held to discuss career progression and the idea of creating your own role by building a business case. A progressive and bottom up way of working.

All the people in the office have something that makes them tick outside of work which builds a very positive working environment. I have already made solid connections within my team and genuinely enjoy working beside them.

This was a great process. You are given all the detail you need to start work soon after starting. Open and collaborative group sessions with new starters make for a comfortable learning environment. These things can be daunting but not with this company.

From my first week, I was involved in conversations surrounding my progression and where I wanted to go with my new role. I was given clear targets with clear guidance to how I can ensure that I can step up to the next level.

The onboarding process was so well-structured and it was clear that it had been designed in part by those who have actually completed it. I was continually asked about things I would add or change and it seems that this is the case with all processes at the ECS- my previous experience and input is really encouraged and absorbed.

The ECS take on a flat management structure which personally I really like. Everyone is super approachable and this goes right to the top. People who perform well are rewarded here and this means that management are really knowledgable and understanding about the role and what it demands from me.

As a high-growth start-up, we are constantly growing and the opportunities to get stuck in are bountiful. Working in a place that values your career progression is really refreshing.

I love what we're trying to do here. There will always be tough or stressful days, but it makes a difference knowing the work we do has a meaningful impact on the environment. We're all working towards a greener planet.

Everyone is working hard towards a shared goal and vision. It's a breath of fresh air to work with people who care about the company as much as I do! We're building something special.

From the first day all members of the team have made me feel extremely welcome. Having had a fantastic onboarding training where I was able to learn all about the ins and outs of the company, which has helped me settle in quickly and comfortably.

From the detailed onboarding I have been able to see how far the company has come already in a short space of time and where it is planning to get too. I have been shown the different career paths in which I can go down in the future as the company continues to expand.

The management team have been very supportive with me! Especially my line manager who has ensured that I have settled in quickly which has really helped me with my learning. We have multiple chats throughout the day to see how the day is going and to also discuss any issues or queries that I may have.

Everyone within the company in very warm and welcoming which makes it easier to ask for help and support. Working with a team of people who are highly motivated and happy to help makes all the difference

Having flexible working makes such a big difference because it allows you to have a better work life balance which it turn makes you want to work harder

Being part of such as fast growing company is amazing as it gives you the opportunity to develop your skills and it also shows that their is a lot room for growth

With Electric Car Scheme, they really make you and your opinion feel valued. All management feel like equals and that they listen to what you have to say. The culture and environment is great as well. Hybrid working is in place, and when you are in the office, it is a very casual and friendly environment.

The overall feel of the company is very exciting. Things are constantly growing and evolving. It may seem scary joining a startup, but once you start, you feel everything is in full control, and that there is a very clear path of progression.

Diversity takes centre stage when recruting here. There are people from all backgrounds. There is also a very even gender ratio in the workplace, with no discrimination on who has what role or on promotion opportunities.

Despite there being a lot to learn I can’t wait to keep learning and I can’t wait to see all of the amazing things which the ECS is going to accomplish.

After recently joining the ECS team I can hand on heart say I’ve never ever felt so welcome in the same way as I have with the ECS. The team couldn’t be more caring and supportive, everyone listens and values what everybody has to say no matter what.

Everyone in the team genuinely has so much respect for one and other and even the management look at us all as equals, it’s truly amazing. Everyone listens and considers others opinions and ideas, and everything is taken on board. Asking for feedback is second nature at the ECS.

Felt incredibly welcome from day 1, everyone wants to help you an go out of their way to do so. The company is young and so are the people, everyone is great fun

The company have a flexible working setup, everyone tries to go in on Mondays and Wednesdays as a team, for collaboration and team meetings etc. Rest of the week is up to you, with a handful of people in on Fridays.

With ambitious growth plans, I can see the business has to date grown very fast and will continue to do so over the coming months / years. A fast paced environment keeps you on your feet, but should be great opportunity for progression in the future

The team at The Electric Car Scheme are an amazing group of people to work with. Everyone is always quick to help each other when needed, and the team spirit is really strong - whether that's working together collaboratively, lending a helping hand or having team lunches and socials!

All employees at the Electric Car Scheme have the opportunity to ask questions and make suggestions on everything we do - most importantly, everyone's opinions are really taken into account and help to create change in the business.

The mission of The Electric Car scheme to help empower everyone to make choices that will contribute to a net-zero carbon world is really inspiring and creates a workplace where you really feel like you're having a positive impact.

Management are always available and more then happy to help and advise, whilst also listening to everyone's ideas. You always feel valued and are given constant opportunities to grow within the company

There are so many different aspects to the role, and you are constantly learning which is an exciting place to be!

The team energy is one of the things I love most working at The Electric Car Scheme. We all celebrate others wins and are all in it as one team!

The Electric Car Scheme is helping as many businesses and employees as possible benefit from the government tax savings on EVs. Their aim is help people make greener choices and contribute towards achieving net zero - saving lots of money in the process.

The team are all super friendly and approachable. Everyone is incredibly welcoming and there is always a great energy in the office/ online whilst WFH.
