Helen Charteris
Practice Director - Global Power & Energy
Permanent
Manchester, Manchester
£75,000
Location: Remote UK (national travel, North West base welcome)
Salary: £65,000 - £75,000
Contract: Permanent
Sector: Renewable energy / Solar PV
This suits a strong Commissioning Engineer looking to own projects independently, or an Authorised Person ready for a senior engineering seat. Remote-first, nationwide variety, genuine ownership, and the backing of a large European group with a long pipeline.
EMBS is partnering with a growing UK renewable energy business that owns the full project lifecycle - design, build, commissioning and energisation - across solar PV and distributed generation projects nationwide. They're part of a larger European group with a strong pipeline and long-term project security.
This is the technical lead on site during the commissioning phase. You'll own the DNO witness test process end-to-end, run string and inverter commissioning, HV/LV cable and transformer tests, protection relay testing and SCADA validation. When something goes wrong on site, you diagnose and fix it - not escalate and wait.
Nice to have: HV authorisation, OMICRON / Megger familiarity, hybrid PV+BESS commissioning, SCADA / networking exposure.
Note: UK sponsorship is not available for this role - applicants must have the right to work in the UK.
