We is looking for an experienced Solar PV & Battery Technical Supervisor / Senior Renewable Electrician to support the launch and growth of our residential renewable-energy installation business.
We are initially focusing on solar PV and battery storage, with EV charging and other low-carbon technologies planned as the business develops.
This is a part-time / contract opportunity suited to an experienced renewable electrician who wants to play a key role in helping establish the technical standards, systems and installation processes of a growing company.
The role
The successful person would act as Claystone’s Technical Supervisor for Solar PV and EESS, supporting the business through surveys, system design, installation, testing, commissioning and MCS compliance.
Responsibilities would include:
• Supporting and reviewing technical property surveys
• Reviewing and approving solar PV and battery system designs
• Assessing consumer units, earthing, cable routes and electrical suitability
• Reviewing inverter, battery and protection requirements
• Supporting DNO / G98 / G99 / G100 requirements
• Establishing installation and quality-control procedures
• Supervising renewable electricians and PV installation teams
• Reviewing inspection, testing and commissioning results
• Supporting MCS documentation and technical sign-off
• Assisting with NICEIC/MCS assessments and ongoing compliance
• Helping develop Claystone’s standard survey, design and installation processes
What we are looking for
Ideally, you will have:
• Strong domestic electrical installation experience
• Current 18th Edition qualification
• Recognised Level 3 Solar PV qualification
• Recognised Level 3 EESS / battery storage qualification
• Inspection and testing competence
• Practical experience installing and commissioning solar PV systems
• Practical experience with hybrid inverters and domestic battery systems
• Good understanding of MCS requirements
• Knowledge of G98 / G99 / G100 and DNO processes
• Experience working with systems such as Solis, Sunsynk, Fox ESS, GivEnergy, Sigenergy or similar
• High standards of workmanship and documentation
Previous experience acting as an MCS Technical Supervisor, Qualified Supervisor or Technical Manager would be highly desirable.
Structure
Initially this would be a flexible part-time / contract position, likely around 1–2 days per week or installation-dependent, rather than requiring someone to leave their existing employment.
We are open to discussing:
• Day-rate arrangements
• Monthly retainers
• Per-install technical review arrangements
• A combination of the above
There is also the opportunity for the role to develop into a permanent Technical Manager / Lead Renewable Electrician position as installation volume grows.
Location
Claystone will initially be operating across Hampshire and surrounding areas, so we are particularly interested in people based within reasonable travelling distance of the South Coast / South East.
About Claystone
Claystone is being built as a professional residential renewable-energy company focused on high-quality design, installation and long-term customer support, rather than high-volume, pressure-led solar sales.
We want to build the technical side of the company correctly from the beginning and are looking for someone who would like to have genuine input into:
• Equipment selection
• Survey standards
• Installation procedures
• Quality control
• Future team recruitment
• Technical training
• The development of the wider renewable-energy operation
If you are an experienced solar PV / battery electrician and would be interested in discussing the opportunity, please message me directly or email .
Feel free to share this with anyone in the renewable-energy industry who may be suitable.
