Design Manager - Commercial Solar in Melton Mowbray

A technical leadership role for a senior solar designer who wants their expertise to shape how a business delivers. Myriad Products is a well-established renewable energy business with over 20 years' experience delivering commercial solar PV installations across the UK. As our project pipeline continues to grow, we're looking for a Design Manager to take ownership of design quality and coordination across our commercial solar portfolio.

This is a role for someone who has grown into the senior end of solar PV design and is ready to take responsibility for how design is managed and delivered across a business — not just for their own output. You'll be the technical authority that the wider team works to, ensuring that designs are consistent, standards-compliant and construction-ready across multiple concurrent projects.

The Role

You will lead the design function at Myriad, coordinating solar PV design output from concept through to delivery. Working closely with the operations and project delivery teams, you will set and maintain the technical standard for design across the business — ensuring that what leaves the design team is rigorous, buildable and fully compliant. Your work will include:

• Overseeing and coordinating design output across multiple concurrent commercial solar PV projects
• Producing and reviewing detailed designs using Revit and IFC-based workflows
• Ensuring all designs are compliant with relevant standards, grid requirements and regulatory frameworks — with compliance embedded in the design process, not bolted on at the end
• Maintaining and developing Myriad's design standards, processes and documentation — single-line diagrams, equipment schedules, string layouts, shading analysis and yield assessments
• Working closely with project and delivery teams to ensure smooth handover from design to construction
• Supporting the resolution of technical queries, design reviews and value engineering exercises across the project portfolio

About You

You are a technically accomplished solar PV designer with a background in the construction sector and a track record of managing design across complex commercial projects. You understand how good design management works at a business level — not just how to produce great designs yourself, but how to ensure a consistent standard across everything that goes out. You will have:

• Proven design experience within the construction industry
• Strong solar PV design experience, ideally at commercial and industrial scale
• Proficiency in Revit and IFC workflows — embedded in how you work, not an occasional tool
• The ability to manage design across multiple concurrent projects without losing technical rigour
• A thorough working knowledge of relevant standards and the confidence to apply and enforce them meaningfully
• Strong coordination and communication skills — you'll be the point of contact between design, project delivery and clients

You must also:

• Be within commutable distance of Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire (hybrid role)
• Already hold the unrestricted right to work in the UK

Why Join Myriad Products

A role where technical leadership is the job — not a secondary responsibility alongside project delivery. A strong and growing commercial solar pipeline with real variety across project scale and site type. An established business with 20+ years of delivery experience to draw on. The freedom to set and own the design standard across a growing business. A small, fast-moving team where your decisions have immediate and visible impact.
