Solar Construction Manager
We are seeking an experienced Solar Construction Manager to lead the delivery of utility-scale and commercial solar photovoltaic projects from mobilisation through to completion. The successful candidate will oversee day-to-day construction activities, ensuring projects are delivered safely, on schedule, within budget and to the required quality standards. This role will involve coordinating site operations, managing contractors and subcontractors, and maintaining effective communication with project stakeholders, suppliers and engineering teams.
Responsibilities will include developing and monitoring construction programmes, coordinating civil, structural, electrical and mechanical works, and ensuring all activities comply with approved designs, specifications, permits and relevant regulations. You will manage site resources, materials, plant and equipment; review method statements and risk assessments; lead progress meetings; and track project milestones, costs, variations and potential risks. You will also oversee inspections, testing, documentation, punch-list activities and handover, working closely with commissioning teams to support successful energisation and completion. Maintaining high standards of health, safety, environmental protection and quality will be a central part of the position.
Candidates should have proven experience managing solar, renewable energy or complex construction projects, with a strong understanding of photovoltaic systems, electrical infrastructure and construction sequencing. A relevant qualification in construction management, engineering or a related discipline is desirable, together with experience leading multidisciplinary teams and external contractors. Strong planning, problem-solving, negotiation and communication skills are essential, as is the ability to interpret technical drawings, programmes and commercial information. Familiarity with construction management software and standard health and safety requirements would be advantageous. The role may involve regular travel to project sites and requires a practical, organised leader who can make sound decisions in a fast-paced environment.
