Ross Hoare

Chief Operations Officer (COO)

I studied Geography at The University Edinburgh and climate change was a central theme that ran through my degree. After graduating, I knew that I wanted to develop my career in an area which would have a positive impact on our environment and help tackle the effects of climate change. Renewable energy has always really appealed to me and prior to joining Hyperion, I spent nearly five years as Head of Project Resources for a renewable energy installation business. We specialised in solar PV but also installed small-scale wind turbines and renewable heating technologies.

After five great years of the solar boom, I was looking for a new challenge where I could build on my knowledge of and passion for the sector, but by doing something completely different. Hyperion gave me the opportunity to do this and to work within new areas of cleantech. I joined Hyperion in 2015 and as COO, I draw upon my wealth of experience and insight, helping our clients to recruit the very best talent available in the sector. I oversee the delivery of our search assignments and am passionate about delivering the best possible experience for both our clients and candidates. I love working with our clients who are all having such a big impact on tackling climate change

Having grown up in Kent and studied in Edinburgh, I settled in Liverpool in 2009 and very much consider it home. As an avid Liverpool FC supporter, I try to get to Anfield as much as I can. Nothing beats a Champions League match under the floodlights at Anfield! I’m lucky to have two amazing boys who always make me smile, and keep me very busy!! I love spending time outside as a family and holidays in Cornwall. Knowing that my work in the cleantech sector will contribute towards making the world a better place for us, my children and future generations is my biggest inspiration.
