Nice to see a net zero consultancy hiring, but the article is paywalled. Would be good to know what roles they are filling and what background the new starters have. Anyone know more about Trident's approach?

Trident has been around since 2001, so they have some track record. Still, 'net zero journey' is a vague phrase. What kind of projects are they actually delivering? Audits, procurement, retrofit advice?

Energy consultancy hiring for commercial team means they are selling more projects. Wonder if the work is mostly brokering energy contracts or deeper efficiency and grid-side work. The two are very different for actual carbon impact.

The net zero consultancy space is getting crowded. A 64-person firm adding commercial staff suggests demand is real, but the sector needs clearer standards so 'net zero advice' is not just green labeling. What certifications or methodologies do they use?

64 staff is not tiny. If they focus on reducing energy consumption, I hope they are also getting into building retrofits and heat pumps, not just energy procurement. Those are where the actual emission cuts live.

Two new commercial hires at Trident. It is a sign the net zero consulting market in the North West is growing. Wish the article listed names and previous roles. Paywalls are annoying for small news.
