Electrical Design Engineer (Solar PV)

We’re working with a growing renewable energy business looking to bring in an Electrical Design Engineer to support their Solar PV projects across the UK.

This role is perfect for someone with strong electrical knowledge, ideally a time-served electrician looking to move off the tools and into design and survey work. You’ll be conducting on-site surveys, assessing electrical systems for solar PV suitability, and preparing design documents including scopes of work and BOQs.

Key Responsibilities:

Carry out detailed surveys for commercial solar PV installations
Identify any issues or limitations with existing electrical systems
Prepare electrical scopes of work and bills of quantities
Compile survey data and produce professional technical reports
Work closely with the technical team to coordinate and prioritise site visits
Travel to sites across the UK as needed

What You’ll Need:

Strong understanding of electrical systems and regulations
Previous hands-on electrical experience, ideally in solar PV
Excellent report-writing and IT skills
Self-motivated and well-organised
Full UK driving licence (must be over 25 for insurance purposes)

Qualifications (minimum):

AM2
NVQ Level 3
18th Edition
Level 3 Testing & Inspection (2394/95 or 2391)
Level 4 Design & Verification (2396) – desirable
Solar qualifications – desirable

This is a great opportunity for someone who’s ready to step into a technical design role while staying closely connected to real-world projects on-site.

If this sounds like a good fit, get in touch and I’ll be happy to share more details!
