You’ll be a fully qualified electrician with strong experience in solar and battery storage, ideally with a track record of managing installations and supervising teams.

* Oversee in-house electrical and roofing teams
* Order materials and liaise with suppliers
* Submit DNO applications, NICEIC certificates, and MCS paperwork
* Handle site readiness checks, RAMS, and compliance
* Be the main customer contact from sale to handover, providing updates and arranging install dates
* Deliver post-install technical support for customer queries and warranty issues
* Maintain documentation, handover packs, and MCS/IWA submissions
* Support the MD in driving quality, compliance, and continuous improvement
* Represent the company as NICEIC Qualified Supervisor and MCS Technical Representative (or be willing to train into the role)
Requirements
* Fully qualified electrician (NVQ Level 3 + AM2)
* 18th Edition and 2391 Testing & Inspection
* At least 2 years’ experience installing domestic solar PV and battery systems
* Confident with OpenSolar and general install planning tools
* Experience supervising teams or managing multiple installs
* Good understanding of DNO applications and MCS processes
* Excellent communication and problem-solving skills
* Full UK driving licence and own vehicle (mileage paid)
Bonus (Nice to Have)
* NICEIC QS or MCS Technical Rep experience
* Familiarity with systems like Fox ESS, Sigenergy, or Tesla Powerwall
* Health & safety training (e.g. working at height, asbestos awareness)
What You’ll Get
* £50,000–£55,000 depending on experience
* Mileage allowance for business travel (own vehicle required)
* Laptop and access to required systems
* 28 days holiday (including bank holidays)
* Pension (NEST)
* Support and funding to become NICEIC QS and MCS Technical Rep
