Solar PV & Battery Installer (Domestic) – Central England (Cotswolds, Oxford, Warwick, Birmingham)

About us
MakeMyHouseGreen is a growing UK solar installation company. We quote, design, and install in-house, and we're MCS-registered — so you're working under our scheme certification and don't need your own NICEIC/NAPIT/MCS registration to sign EICs on our jobs.

The role
Around three domestic installs a week — solar PV and battery systems on homes across central England. Steady, predictable work, with enough variety between homes and setups to keep it interesting. You'll be working across a mix of stock — from Cotswold stone cottages with slate or stone roofs through to modern pan-tile semis — so you'll see the full range.

This is a fresh-installs role. Occasional revisits come up but they're not the bulk of the week — you'll mostly be putting in clean new systems with the time to do them properly.

If you've got strong electrical fundamentals but haven't done much solar or battery work yet, that's fine — we'll pay for the tickets to bring you up to speed (see below). What we can't train is being reliable, professional, and good with customers.

Bring your roofer. If you already work regularly with a roofer you trust, we'd love them as part of the team. Not essential — we've got our own — but a real plus, especially for slate and stone work, and we'll talk about how that works for both of you.

What you'll be doing

• Installing solar PV and battery systems on residential properties — full installs, AC and DC
• Working alongside your roofer (or ours) to get the job done right first time, including on slate and Cotswold stone where extra care is needed
• Inspecting, testing, and signing off the electrical work (EIC and DC certificate)
• Handling the occasional revisit when one's needed
• Feeding back to ops on what's working on site and what isn't — and actually seeing things change

Must-haves

• Level 3 NVQ or Diploma in Electrical/Electrotechnical Installation — e.g. C&G 2357, 5357 (apprenticeship), 2365, or EAL equivalent
• If you came via apprenticeship: AM2 / AM2E / AM2S passed
• 4+ years' electrical experience
• Comfortable at heights and on roofs, or genuinely open to learning
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to cover a regional patch (typical day's travel up to ~60 miles each way)
• Based within reasonable reach of the central patch — Oxford, Banbury, Cheltenham, Stratford, Warwick, Worcester or similar
• Reliable, professional, good with customers

We'll pay for these if you don't already have them

• 18th Edition (BS 7671) Amendment 2:2022 — and Amendment 4 once it comes into force
• C&G 2391-50 or 2391-52 Initial Verification (or the equivalent unit within your Level 3)
• C&G 2922 Solar PV (Level 3 Award)
• C&G 2923 Electrical Energy Storage Systems / Battery (Level 3 Award)

We sponsor the course and exam fees in exchange for a commitment to 15 completed installs over the following 12 months. Tapered clawback if you leave early — full details up front, nothing hidden.

Nice-to-haves

• Domestic solar PV and battery install experience
• ECS Gold Card (Installation Electrician)
• A trusted roofer who could come along as part of the team — particularly one experienced with slate or Cotswold stone
• Experience working on period or listed-adjacent property
• An eye for spotting how things could run more smoothly

What's in it for you

• £45k–£55k depending on experience
• Employee stock ownership plan — you own a real piece of what you're building. Rare for a role like this.
• Sponsored training to add 18th Edition, 2391, 2922 and 2923 to your CV
• 25 days holiday plus bank holidays
• Company van and fuel card
• ~3 installs a week, consistent — no chasing work, no quiet weeks at home
• Time to do the job right — we'd rather you finish properly than rush onto the next one
• Real input on how we run installs — your suggestions actually get heard
• Company pension
• A direct hand in the UK's clean energy transition

Apply if you're a solid electrician who likes doing things properly — happy on the tools, proud of work that stands up to scrutiny, and keen to be part of a team building something good.
