Spanning utility-scale and distributed generation projects, our solar energy solutions are designed to maximise efficiency and minimise environmental impact. We help clients achieve their clean energy goals through innovative design, permitting, and construction services.

The successful candidate will join our project teams to deliver a range of feasibility, design, and technical advisory services.

Join us. Make a difference. Build a better world.

Here's What You Will Do

Design solar PV systems using PVSol, PVSyst, PVCase, and other industry-standard PV design software.

Support projects by producing design layouts, system specifications, cost estimates, and technical reports.

Attend client meetings, build strong relationships, and help develop effective technical solutions.

Support the commercial team in the preparation of technical submissions and tender documentation.

Uphold a robust health and safety culture across the business.
