Job description

With a strong reputation in modular construction, large-scale residential developments and high-end residential projects, the business is now expanding into the renewable energy sector. Their plans include developing a strong presence within commercial and agricultural solar installations, alongside a dedicated domestic installation team. This is an exciting stage in the company's development, and the successful candidate will play an instrumental role in establishing and growing this new division. The Role Initially, the position will involve a combination of hands-on technical delivery, project management and business development. You will take the lead in delivering renewable energy installations while establishing the systems, procedures and operational standards required to grow the department.

• Establishing relationships with suppliers, manufacturers and customers.
• Identifying new commercial opportunities and helping drive business growth.
• Supporting the recruitment, development and management of an installation team as the division expands., The successful candidate will initially take responsibility for leading and developing the renewables offering, with a clear progression pathway into Renewables Manager.

As the division grows, you will have the opportunity to take full responsibility for its day-to-day operation, including project delivery, team management, commercial performance and future business development. Our client is looking for someone who wants to build something substantial, rather than simply move into another installation position. If you are technically strong, commercially aware and have the ambition to develop and lead a successful renewables department, this could be an excellent next step in your career.

We are looking for an experienced renewable energy professional with a strong practical background and the ambition to take the next step in their career. Ideally, you will have:

• The ability to manage projects from initial enquiry through to installation and final handover.
• Strong organisational, communication and problem-solving skills.
• A proactive, commercially minded approach with the ability to work independently.

A full UK driving licence is essential, along with a willingness to travel nationwide to support projects.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced renewable energy professional to take ownership of a developing division, play a key role in its growth and progress into a senior management position. Our client is looking for someone who combines strong technical expertise with commercial awareness and leadership ambition. This is much more than an installation role; it offers the opportunity to help shape, develop and ultimately manage a successful renewable energy department.

Our client is an established, family-run electrical contractor operating across the commercial and residential sectors throughout the UK.

• £50,000 £60,000 annual salary, depending on experience.
• Opportunity to lead and develop a new renewables division.
• Clear progression into a Renewables Manager position.
• Significant responsibility and input into business decisions.
• Opportunity to recruit, develop and lead your own team.
• Performance-related rewards and additional benefits as the division grows.
