Solar panel installer / Jr electrician

Here is a rewritten version that leads with the appeal rather than the requirements, and frames Potentia's engineering credibility as a selling point:

Solar PV Installer | Commercial and Domestic | Cheltenham

Join Potentia Engineering, a specialist solar PV and renewables engineering firm, as we expand our installation team. We are looking for a versatile electrotechnical professional at NVQ Level 3 who takes pride in their craft and shares our commitment to first-class customer service.

About the Role

You will install solar PV systems across a varied portfolio of commercial and domestic projects throughout Gloucestershire and the surrounding region. Every installation is engineered in-house to BS 7671 and the relevant IET Codes of Practice, so you will be working with properly designed systems backed by chartered engineering oversight, not figuring it out on the roof.

What You'll Bring

Essential:

• NVQ Level 3 in an electrotechnical discipline
• Confident with hand tools and 18V cordless tools
• Full UK driving licence
• A genuine commitment to customer service and workmanship

Preferred:

• City and Guilds Level 3 electrical qualification
• Solar PV installation experience
• Working at height certification (we can support this if not held)

The Package

• Basic salary up to £35,000 per annum, negotiable on experience
• Annual performance bonus
• Negotiable annual leave
• Subsistence allowance for remote work
• Company van
• Ongoing training and qualification support, fully funded

Career Progression

We are a rapidly growing start-up, which means the right person will not stay an installer for long. There is real scope to step up into supervisory and technical roles as the business expands, with pay revisions to match. You will also get hands-on exposure to commercial rooftop arrays, domestic systems, and our growing portfolio of battery storage projects, the breadth of which is hard to find at established installers.

Why Potentia

We are not a volume installer. Our work is engineered, documented, and delivered to a standard we are proud to put our name to. That reputation has driven rapid growth, and we are now building the team to match. If you want a role where the quality of your work is recognised, where every job is properly specified before you arrive on site, and where your career can grow with the business, we would like to hear from you.
