Noble Green Energy is growing — and we’re looking for an experienced Solar PV Project Manager to take ownership of the delivery of our commercial and industrial solar projects across the UK.
This is a genuine delivery role. You’ll take an issued design package and turn it into a completed, operational installation — owning the programme, subcontractors, live site delivery and client relationship from mobilisation through to handover.
We have a significantly increasing volume of commercial installations coming through, alongside a growing pipeline of larger 1 MW–20 MWp projects, so this is an opportunity to join a business where your experience will have real impact from day one.
What you’ll be responsible for
Building and owning project programmes and Gantt charts using MS Project, Asta Powerproject, Primavera or similar
Managing multiple live C&I solar installations simultaneously
Planning and sequencing works from design handover through procurement, installation, commissioning and handover
Managing electrical, roofing, scaffolding, steelwork, craneage and specialist subcontractors
Holding contractors accountable for programme, quality and safety
Mobilising sites, coordinating trades and managing day-to-day delivery
Reviewing RAMS, carrying out safety audits and fulfilling relevant CDM 2015 responsibilities
Inspecting installations against design, specification and BS 7671 requirements
Managing snagging, commissioning, testing and final handover
Acting as the main client contact throughout construction
Chairing progress meetings and providing clear reporting to senior stakeholders
Managing variations and keeping projects commercially and operationally on track
What we’re looking for
You’ll need at least 3 years’ hands-on experience managing commercial and industrial solar PV installations — managing the build and delivery rather than supporting someone else who does.
You should also have:
✅ Proven experience creating and managing your own project programmes
✅ Strong subcontractor management experience
✅ SMSTS or SSSTS
✅ Valid CSCS or ECS card
✅ Good understanding of electrical drawings, single line diagrams and BS 7671
✅ Confidence dealing with senior client stakeholders
✅ Experience managing multiple live sites
✅ Strong organisation and documentation skills
✅ Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel nationwide
✅ Existing right to work in the UK — no sponsorship available
Desirable experience
It would be great if you also have:
• 18th Edition / C&G 2382
• Inspection & Testing / C&G 2391
• NEBOSH or IOSH
• APM PMQ, PRINCE2 or equivalent
• Ground-mount and larger-scale solar projects (1 MW+)
• Battery energy storage integrated with PV
• MCS experience
• DNO process knowledge (G98/G99/G100)
• Solar PV O&M experience
Importantly, this is not a design position.
You won't be expected to produce PV designs, use PVsyst/AutoCAD/OpenSolar/Helioscope/PV*SOL, or originate grid connections. Those responsibilities sit with our Technical Manager.
We're looking for someone who is decisive on site, highly organised, technically credible and straightforward with clients and contractors — someone who takes ownership and gets projects delivered properly, safely and on time.
What’s on offer?
- Competitive basic salary, depending on experience
- Bonus
- Company car
- 25 days’ holiday + bank holidays
- Company pension
- Perkbox benefits
- Remote / home-based working
- Nationwide travel with expenses covered
If you're an experienced C&I Solar PV Project Manager looking for a role with genuine responsibility, strong project pipeline and the opportunity to make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
