Are you an experienced Solar PV Engineer with a strong testing & inspection background?

Do you want to join a multi-award-winning business making waves in the renewable energy sector?

Join a fast-growing, innovation-driven company that's shaping the future of sustainable energy across the UK. With a strong reputation, long-term projects and a solid pipeline of commercial and residential work, this business is expanding and seeking a skilled Solar PV Maintenance Engineer to support continued national growth.

You'll be part of a tight-knit team delivering both reactive and preventative maintenance on solar PV systems across commercial, industrial, and high-end residential sites.

• 2+ years' experience maintaining or installing solar PV systems
• Excellent fault-finding, testing and inspection skills
• Strong communicator with a professional, can-do attitude
• Comfortable working independently and managing their own schedule

The role

• Carrying out preventative and reactive maintenance across residential, commercial, and industrial solar PV systems
• Fault-finding and troubleshooting across inverters, modules, and electrical components
• Managing documentation, site reports, and risk assessments to ensure compliance
• Working across sites mainly in the South East, with occasional travel to Scotland and Devon (hotel covered)
• Leading and delivering small projects and system upgrades with minimal supervision
