Going green: Pippa Middleton is working for her ex-boyfriend's geothermal energy firmPippa Middleton picked up a slew of new admirers after putting in a star turn in her role as bridesmaid at the royal wedding.
And now Kate Middleton's younger sister has just taken on a new job.
But her boyfriend might be a little green with envy as the 27-year-old is working for her ex George Percy, who runs a geothermal energy firm.
t comes after she spent a week with George, the 26-year-old son of the Duke of Northumberland, and a group of friends in Madrid.
Wedding belles: Pippa and her sister Kate with Prince William and best man Prince Harry leaving Westminster Abbey A friend told the Sunday Mirror: 'Pip and George are really close friends so when he needed someone to help out with office stuff, she was the obvious person to ask.
She’s enjoying getting stuck in to something new.'
Pippa will juggle the role with her role at party planning firm Table Talk, and editing an online magazine for her parents’ firm Party Pieces.
Enterprising George, whose father is one of the richest men in Britain, set up the business last year with mining magnate Algy Cluff, who owns gold mines in war-torn Sierra Leone.
The company aims to find ways of turning hot water stored underground into heat and electricity.
Along with experts from Newcastle University, they are drilling boreholes in Co Durham, and Pippa is expected to help with lobbying for a new licensing system from the government so they can go into production.
