Lead and grow a technical service operation across commercial renewable-energy systems. Myriad Products is a well-established renewable energy business with over 20 years' experience delivering commercial solar, biomass and low-carbon energy systems across the UK. We've built a substantial installed solar base and an established operations and maintenance service operation across our renewable technologies, and we're now looking for a Business Manager to lead that service business, drive the growth of our commercial solar O&M and establish a foothold in other related technologies.
This is a lead-and-grow role. You'll take ownership of an established O&M service operation spanning our renewable-energy systems, including 14 direct field service engineers and other subcontracted support. You'll have the mandate, backing and platform to build the commercial solar side into a major growth area for the business.
The Opportunity: Commercial solar is now a well-established part of the UK's building stock β and with a large and growing installed base comes a substantial, largely untapped market for professional solar O&M. Myriad is exceptionally well placed to capture it: an established brand, an installed base to build from, the operational capability to deliver, and a clear view of how to take a compelling proposition to market. What's been missing is someone to own it and drive it.
The Role: You will take commercial ownership of Myriad's O&M business β leading the established service operation across our renewable technologies while building the commercial solar O&M offering into a core part of the company's future. Your focus will be on growth. You will:
- Take overall responsibility for Myriad's existing O&M service operation across our renewable-energy systems including biomass and solar, ensuring quality delivery and strong customer relationships.
- Build the commercial solar O&M business β shaping the proposition, defining the target market and driving new contract growth.
- Develop the commercial model β pricing, contract structures and service levels that work for customers and the business.
- Own the pipeline β identifying, targeting and winning commercial solar O&M contracts.
- Work with Myriad's operational teams to ensure the service is delivered to a high and scalable standard.
- Take ownership of the numbers β revenue, margin and the growth of the recurring contract base.
- Grow the business to the point where it needs, and supports, its own team and structure.
About You: You are a commercially minded operator from a commercial solar background who wants ownership β not just a sales target, but a business to lead and grow. You understand commercial solar, you understand what it takes to win and keep customers, and you have the drive and self-direction to build something from a strong starting position.
You will have:
- A background in commercial solar β you understand the technology, the market and the customer.
- A commercial, business-building mindset β comfortable owning proposition, pricing, pipeline and P&L, not just delivery.
- Experience winning and growing business β you know how to build a pipeline and convert it.
- The self-direction to take ownership of a business line and drive it forward.
- Strong customer and stakeholder skills β credible with building owners, facilities managers and commercial decision-makers.
- The ambition to build something and grow with it.
- Experience in O&M, service or maintenance-contract businesses is an advantage. A commercial solar background is essential.
You must also:
- Be within commutable distance of Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire.
- Already hold the unrestricted right to work in the UK.
Why Join Myriad Products: A lead-and-grow opportunity β with the security, brand and infrastructure of an established company behind you. An established O&M operation to lead from day one, plus a substantial installed solar base to build from. 20+ years of stability in a sector that is only growing. Genuine ownership β of the proposition, the customers, the numbers and the growth. The opportunity to grow into leading a significant business line. Direct access to senior leadership, including a hands-on, invested chairman.
If you're a commercial solar professional ready to lead and grow a national technical service operation β with the backing to make it happen β this is the opportunity.
