England, United Kingdom SENS - Iqony Solar Energy Solutions Full time

Solar PV Operations and Maintenance Manager (O&M)

Iqony Solar Energy Solutions UK (SENS UK) is the solar subsidiary of German power company, Iqony Group (formerly STEAG). SENS UK's vision is to become one of the UK’s foremost solar PV Independent Power Producers (IPPs). We will do this by developing, financing, constructing and maintaining commercial solar PV assets, on the ground, on rooftops, in some cases, co-located with batteries. Where profitable markets emerge in other renewable technologies, we will enter them. Through our Wattify platform, we enable customers and the public to own the solar PV assets. Our parent company’s strength and commitment enables us to take a long-term view on owning renewable assets, by developing a project portfolio, purchasing development rights and direct relationships with clients where we will sell green energy either to the grid or to customers, ‘behind the meter’. The team is currently developing and building large-scale rooftop and ground-mounted solar PV systems. The team is expanding and growing its ground-mounted solar PV capability. We require an experienced Operations and Maintenance Manager to work closely with the Development, EPC, Maintenance and Operation teams to achieve the IPP vision.

Your new role

As the Operations and Maintenance Manager (O&M), you will be responsible for ensuring the efficient and safe functioning of large-scale ground and roof-mounted solar PV and, in the future, battery systems.

Key Responsibilities:
  1. Subcontractor coordination, contract and project management, drafting maintenance reports, tracking cases and mitigating under-performance
  2. Manages all aspects of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance
  3. Coordinates existing and onboards new subcontractors
  4. Interacts with sub-contractors, co-developers, electricians, designers and project managers
  5. Serves as a project manager for special projects, as required
  6. Maintains relationships with all on-site workers and enforces site health and safety

Network – we need you to ‘spread the word’ about SENS UK and why it is a long term, reliable and well-funded organization with whom clients can enjoy long-term relationships

What you’ll need to succeed

SENS UK is a dynamic, entrepreneurial, well-funded and fun organization to work for. The ideal candidate will:

  • be enthusiastic, self-motivated, hands-on, results-oriented, and a team player
  • have a good understanding and technical expertise relating to solar PV plant commissioning, operations and troubleshooting
  • Fully understand principles of the application, design, installation and utility scale PV and ancillary electrical systems
  • Maintain thorough understanding of SENS, co-developers and subcontractor capabilities
  • Sustain knowledge of emerging technologies and their field applications
  • have a good understanding of general construction, electrical and PV related troubleshooting skills and expertise
  • have strong verbal and written communications skills and use of computers, Microsoft Office, data acquisition systems, and remote computing
  • demonstrate a thorough understanding of PV principles, AC and DC electrical characteristics
  • have the ability to read and interpret construction drawings and specifications plans
  • possess 5-10 years of relevant experience (or equivalent)
  • be comfortable communicating (verbal and written) to different audiences (e.g. technical and non-technical)
  • be a dynamic, motivated individual with the ability to work alone and as part of a team
  • be organized, flexible and committed and you must have a can-do attitude

Above all, we need you to fit into an entrepreneurial culture: to bring energy, flair, flexibility, creativity and dynamism to help deliver SENS UK’s vision.

What you’ll get in return

You will receive a highly competitive salary, as well as an excellent benefits package and bonus scheme. You will secure a position that provides the true opportunity to shape and develop the position, grow with the organization, and achieve outstanding results. The preference is for you to be based in either the North-West or South-East regions, partly remotely (40%) and partly from the office (60%), with the understanding that some travel is required.
