Electrician – Solar & Renewable Installations

We are looking for a competent and reliable electrician to join our team, working primarily on solar PV installations across residential projects.

This role is hands-on and site-based. It would suit someone who is confident in their electrical ability, takes pride in their work, and is comfortable working in a small, fast-moving business where standards matter.

You will be involved in the installation, testing and commissioning of solar PV systems, along with associated electrical works. While prior solar experience is helpful, it is not essential. We are more interested in solid electrical fundamentals and a willingness to learn.

What you’ll be doing

• Installing and connecting solar PV systems
• Carrying out testing, inspection and commissioning in line with current regulations
• Fault finding and resolving electrical issues efficiently on site
• Ensuring all work is compliant with BS 7671 and relevant health and safety requirements
• Supporting with general electrical works related to renewable installations
• Working alongside roofers and other trades to deliver complete installations
• Keeping clear records of works completed, materials used and any issues encountered

What we’re looking for

• Qualified electrician (NVQ Level 3 or equivalent)
• 18th Edition (BS 7671)
• Experience in installation and testing of electrical systems
• Confident fault-finding ability
• Able to work independently and take ownership of jobs
• Practical, organised and detail-focused
• Full UK driving licence

Strongly desirable

• Level 3 Award in the Installation and Maintenance of Small Scale Solar Photovoltaic Systems (or willingness to undertake this shortly after joining)
• Solar PV installation experience
• 2391 Inspection & Testing
• Manual Handling certification
• Working at Height certification
• Asbestos Awareness certification
• Experience working on domestic and/or small commercial sites

About us

We are a renewable installations company focused on solar PV and related technologies. The business has grown quickly and we are building a team that can deliver consistent, high-quality work as we scale.

We take compliance, safety and environmental standards seriously, and we expect a high standard of workmanship across all installs. At the same time, we are a small team, so flexibility, accountability and a straightforward approach matter.

• Fuel card for work travel
• Company pension
• Employee referral scheme
• 28 days annual leave
• Support for further training and qualifications, particularly in renewables
• Opportunities to move into or develop within the renewables sector
• Teambuilding and social events

This role would suit someone who wants to build a longer-term career in renewables, and who is comfortable working in a business that is still developing its systems and team.

Pay: £45,000.00-£50,000.00 per year

Benefits:

• Company pension
• Free or subsidised travel
• Referral programme
