Sarah is the team captain of the ship here at GES. She is responsible for the day-to-day operations and keeping everyone on their toes! Sarah is a football fanatic and a budding chef, lets just say New York has nothing on this girl's cheesecake. If you recognise Sarah, it’s not because she has a familiar face, oh no! She is a mini star as at the age of 11 she appeared on Dick and Dom in the Bungalow. But don’t let this shining star fool you, she loves anything Mafia and she certainly follows in their attitude of jumping in with both feet at the deep end, that anything is possible and loves a good challenge!
John has been working with Green Energy Switch since its inception and is our numbers guy who is a whizz with a spreadsheet.
Married to Donna for over 40 years he loves spending time with his 3 children and 5 grandchildren. In his spare time, you’ll find John and his family out exploring in his caravan and enjoying classic car shows.
Emma mainly works on voids and our LEAP programme providing support and help to those who need it the most, she is a lifeline to many. When she is not providing help, she is the next Van Gogh in the making, with a love for art she has an independent flair embracing the abstract world. When she’s not preparing a masterpiece, she is traveling the world exploring culture to fuel her unique style. With a love for challenges, she’s a believer in ‘do what scares you’, nothing will stop her from achieving her dreams.
Tamara is a void management warrior, if you have a problem, she has the solution, she is the one-stop shop for energy management. Tamara is all about the American dream! The city lights of old New York are calling her name! This girl has class, sass, and is ‘too glam to give a damn’ when she hits the dance floor. A thrill-seeker at heart, there is nothing she can’t do! Tamara just might be the 8th Wonder of the World.
Drew brings 18 years of experience in sales and customer service to the team. His favourite part of the role is connecting with our partners, solving their problems, and making sure they’re getting the absolute most out of our services. A devoted husband of 8 years and proud dad of two little ones, Drew is also a passionate Tottenham fan. When he’s not busy at work or with family, he enjoys playing cricket and creating custom craft items like t-shirts, mugs, and photo screens. Fun fact: Drew has a 6cm titanium rod in his thigh!
Born and raised in Peterborough, Charlotte is a city girl who enjoys a night out on the town, but she equally cherishes a quiet night in with a movie, snacks, and her cat. Charlotte's hobbies lean towards the creative side, with her favourite pastime being card making. When she gets the chance, she also enjoys playing a tune or two on the keyboard. Charlotte manages the social media for GES and oversees the marketing efforts of the company. Her biggest goal is to get GES TikTok viral!
Duncan is the EPC master for domestic properties and loves helping people on how to raise EPC levels to minimum government standards. Outside of work you’ll find him enjoying a round of golf and sampling fine food and wine if he isn’t relaxing on a Caribbean beach or being a culture vulture exploring a European city. His guilt pleasures include watching live bands and playing his drums.
Lewis is the chatterbox of the team and is responsible for key account management and the go-to guy for EPC’s. A car fanatic and with a passion for helping, Lewis will be your knight in shining armor if your car breaks down. He has a love for food and enjoys cooking, but be warned, he has been known to steal a Jamie Oliver recipe once or twice. Lewis growing up wanted to be a lamppost, but I think it’s safe to say he exceeded all expectations and became a recipe thief and of course a much-loved member of the GES team.
Amanda has a passion for planning and organising, providing a first-class service to her void customers, some may even call her a ninja as she keeps everything tightly in line.

Her true passion lies in helping people, and here at GES, she plays a significant role in our team!
Coming from the TV industry, Mike, a South Londoner, has a story or two about celebrity encounters! He possesses a unique sense of humour and loves to make people laugh. He believes he is a product of his upbringing, all thanks to his parents' hardships. His dad, Tommy, used to work on the docks and faced issues when the unions decided to go on strike, which limited their income. His mom, Gina, used to work in a local diner, covering day shifts to bring home her pay. It must have been love. Mike remembers her saying that they had to try to hold on to what they had. She always said that it didn't make a difference if they made it or not. All jokes aside, he is always happy to help and never fails to put a smile on your face.

Debbie's baking skills are legendary, with her lemon drizzle being a staple at any gathering. But her talents don't stop there—she's dabbled in various sports over the years, including a memorable summer spent sailing to the Channel Islands from Ipswich! Debbie has an identical twin, and her mischievous sense of humour has meant she may or may not have pretended to be her a couple of times. She is looking forward to getting stuck in at GES and getting to know the team as time goes on!

When she's not busy debunking mythical creatures or dodging mushrooms, she loves spending time with her family and occasionally rocking out at gigs with friends. Michelle once signed up to do a 10K run for charity, but once she crossed that finish line, vowed never again to gaslight herself into believing she's a runner. With a background in roles that help and protect people, she is looking forward to assisting all of GES’ partners.
