Paralegal

Believ: ABOUT US

We are a Charge Point Operator who works with Local Authorities (LAs) at County, Borough and Unitary levels, and businesses who wish to accelerate the deployment of electric vehicle charging solutions to meet their needs. It is our belief that we can help revolutionise the electric vehicle charging marketplace by delivering at scale and offering fully funded solutions.

At the heart of the Believ mission, is to provide equitable access to electric vehicle charging for all.

We have all the benefits of being a scale-up business but with the added security and long term backing from well-known parents; Liberty Global (who own Virgin Media O2 our delivery partner) and Zouk Capital (who have invested on behalf of the Government’s Charging Investment Infrastructure Fund).

You’d be joining this exciting journey, at the start of our scale-up phase, so that we can hit the ambitious targets our shareholders have set. Given the nature of the business, you’ll need to be able to deal with ambiguity, a dynamic environment (as the EV charging value chain is constantly changing) and a fast pace where there is a real focus on results, achieved as a team.
