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 and biomass heating systems 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 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
- Lead the design function at Myriad, coordinating design output across commercial solar PV and biomass projects from concept through to delivery.
- Work closely with the operations and project delivery teams to set and maintain the technical standard for design across the business.
- Oversee and coordinate design output across multiple concurrent commercial solar PV and biomass projects.
- Produce and review detailed designs using Revit and IFC‑based workflows.
- Ensure all designs are compliant with relevant standards, grid requirements and regulatory frameworks.
- Maintain and develop Myriad's design standards, processes and documentation.
- Work closely with project and delivery teams to ensure smooth handover from design to construction.
- Support 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.
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.
- 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.
- Experience in biomass heating design is an advantage but not 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 role where technical leadership is the job.
- A strong and growing commercial pipeline with real variety across solar PV and other renewable technologies.
- 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.
If you're a senior solar PV designer with construction sector experience, ready to step into a role where you shape how an established renewables business designs and delivers — this is worth exploring.
