Solar Senior Project Manager

We are seeking an experienced Solar Senior Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of utility-scale and commercial solar projects from initial development through to construction, commissioning and handover. This is a key role for an organised and commercially aware professional who can manage complex programmes, coordinate diverse stakeholders and ensure projects are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards.

Key responsibilities

  • Lead the planning, procurement, construction and commissioning of solar photovoltaic projects.
  • Develop and maintain detailed project programmes, budgets, risk registers and delivery plans.
  • Coordinate consultants, contractors, suppliers, grid partners, landowners and internal stakeholders.
  • Manage contract performance, change control, variations, payment applications and commercial reporting.
  • Ensure all works comply with relevant health and safety, environmental, planning and technical requirements.
  • Monitor progress against milestones, identify emerging issues and implement effective corrective actions.
  • Oversee quality assurance, inspections, testing and final project handover.
  • Prepare regular reports for senior stakeholders, clearly communicating progress, risks and financial performance.
  • Support project development activities, including technical reviews, constructability assessments and tender evaluations.

About you

You will have substantial project management experience within the renewable energy, construction, engineering or infrastructure sectors, ideally with a strong background in solar PV delivery. Experience managing projects through the full lifecycle, including contractor oversight and commissioning, is essential. A relevant degree or professional qualification in engineering, construction, project management or a related discipline would be advantageous.

You should be confident interpreting technical and commercial information, managing competing priorities and making sound decisions in a fast-moving environment. Strong communication, negotiation and stakeholder management skills are required, alongside a practical, collaborative approach to problem-solving. You will be comfortable working independently, travelling to project sites when required and maintaining high standards of safety, quality and professionalism.

This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to the delivery of large-scale renewable energy projects and support the continued transition towards a lower-carbon energy system.
