**We're making zero carbon happen**

We're OVO Group, a big family of companies united by a single vision: to get to zero carbon, fast.

We call this Plan Zero - and it shows how we'll be fighting the climate crisis and transforming the way people use energy over the next decade. To do this, we need the sharpest minds. Are you up for the challenge?

**Do great green things with OVO Energy**

So much has changed since we launched in 2009. Our goal remains the same though: make energy cheaper, greener, and simpler. Just as it was on day one.

**Everyone belongs at OVO**

Our aim is to build a diverse and inclusive movement: teams of brilliant people, with unique talents, skills, passions, and experiences.

We encourage everyone to join us, whatever your gender identity, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age, life experience, or background. So please come as you are - we can't wait to meet you.

**What will I be doing?**

The Technical Design Consultants will review all residential surveys and solar designs completed by the sales and survey team to ensure it's been quoted correctly and is technically feasible to install, you'll then take all of that information to create really clear installation packs for our installers.

- Complete in depth reviews of remote and site survey information to check technical feasibility and compliance of the proposed system design.
- Provide guidance to any Solar PV technical queries that arise in the business.
- Providing technical expertise and guidance in identifying, analysing and resolving project challenges.
- Knowledge of PV industry modeling and simulating assumptions
- Reviewing post install technical data and compiling customer handover packs
- Work closely with the solar surveying team to ensure quality and accuracy of the team's surveys.
- Evaluate and own risks, challenges and opportunities, making recommendations on future strategy.
- Complete post installation reviews, looking at technical data to inform improvements to processes or practices
- Work with Kaluza Flex colleague on new technological advancements and customer experience improvements to the solar PV proposition.
- Represent OVO at external industry events to help build its profile and reputation as a tech leader in this space.

**Is this the job for me?**

Ideally you will be/have the following:

- Experience in a startup, fast paced and tech based environment.
- Previous experience within MCS accredited organisation
- Ideally have a sound technical knowledge of both hardware and software solutions relevant to solar PV and battery storage.
- Knowledge and experience in Solar PV and battery design

- Able to operate at a high level independently.
- Adaptable and flexible approach to plans and able to respond confidently and positively to changing scenarios.

**Let's talk about what's in it for you**

We'll pay you between £32,690 and £39,550, depending on your specific skills and experience. If your expectations are a little different, have a chat with us We keep our pay ranges broad on purpose to give us, and you, flexibility to match your experience to our zero carbon mission.

You may be eligible for an on-target bonus. We have one OVO bonus plan that focuses on the collective performance of our people to deliver our Plan Zero goal.
