Settling In as a New Internal Sales Executive at Rapid Energy

At Rapid Energy, we deliver fast, dependable temporary HVAC solutions for commercial and industrial environments where performance and reliability matter most. From boiler hire to chiller hire, our teams help businesses stay operational through planned shutdowns, emergency failures, and periods of peak demand.

Collaboration, clear processes, and strong teamwork are essential to ensuring our customers receive the right solution at the right time. That focus on people is something new starters experience from the beginning.

For Jessica, who joined Rapid Energy about eight months ago as an Internal Sales Executive, that supportive environment was clear immediately. Here, she shares her experience of settling into the role and becoming part of the Rapid Energy team.

Settling In with Confidence

From day one, Jessica noticed something that sets Rapid Energy apart.

“My first impression of Rapid Energy was that it’s a well-organised company with a strong focus on teamwork and doing things properly. Everyone I met was welcoming and approachable, which made it clear early on that it’s a supportive place to work.”

Jessica describes her first week as fast-paced but well thought out, giving her a clear understanding of the business.

“My first week was really exciting. There was a lot of new information to take in, but it was structured well and I felt supported throughout. It gave me a good overview of the role and how my work fits into the wider business.”

That structure is intentional. At Rapid Energy, where delivering fast, dependable temperature control solutions is critical, ensuring new team members feel confident and capable from the outset is essential.

Learning and Growing

When asked what helped her settle in most during her first month, Jessica points straight to the people.

“The support from my colleagues has helped the most. Being able to ask questions, get clear answers, and receive guidance when needed made settling in much easier and helped build my confidence quickly.”

The induction framework strikes a balance between formal training and real-world experience.

“The onboarding and training process has been clear and well-paced. It provided a solid foundation while still allowing time to learn on the job.”

A Collaborative Culture

One of the biggest surprises for Jessica was how willing everyone was to help her settle in and learn the role.

“I was surprised by how collaborative the environment is and how willing people are to share their knowledge. There’s a strong sense of everyone working towards the same goals.”

This teamwork is vital in a business that supports customers through planned shutdowns, emergency HVAC failures, and critical operational challenges across industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, construction, and government sites.

What Success Looks Like

As Jessica continues to grow into the role, she’s already finding her rhythm.

“Understanding the day-to-day responsibilities and workflows came quite naturally, especially with clear processes in place and support from the team when needed.”

For her, feeling productive and continuing to learn are key to enjoying her job.

“A good day is one where I feel productive, make progress on my tasks, and learn something new, while also contributing positively to the team and the wider business.”

Looking Ahead at Rapid Energy

With Rapid Energy’s reputation built on responsiveness, reliability, and results, employees are encouraged to take ownership, build confidence, and make a real impact.

“I’m most looking forward to continuing to build my skills, taking on more responsibility, and contributing more confidently to the team as I grow and develop within Rapid Energy.”
