Working at Auriga Services Ltd

Auriga was established in 2004, as a subsidiary of the Severn Trent Trust Fund – a registered charity set up in 1997 to help vulnerable customers of Severn Trent water who were struggling to pay their water bills.

Auriga is the name Latin for “charioteer” and is the name of a constellation. Auriga was first catalogued by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century. It contains Capella, the sixth brightest star in the sky. The constellation got this name because of its major stars form a shape similar to that of the pointed helmet of a charioteer. The reason Auriga was chosen as our brand name was because we felt it represented how the organisation evolved from the Severn Trent Trust Fund - Just like charioteer rising from the water.

The formation of Auriga enabled the services offered to be delivered to more clients as well as the opportunity to expand into new industry sectors.

We work closely with some of the largest utility companies in the UK, as well as the NHS, Local Authorities, Small Organisations and Charities, managing their funds and schemes.

With a team of over 60 employees, and 20 years' experience in the industry, we assess over 70,000 applications for financial help plus assessments for Warm Home Discount schemes, HHCRO audits and social tariffs.
