Cambridge & Ipswich | Up to £50,000 + Brand-New Company EV + 38 Days Holiday

* Hands-on Solar PV installation experience

* Strong testing, fault-finding and commissioning ability

* Experience working independently in domestic properties

* Home EV charger installed where suitable

* 30 days annual leave + 8 bank holidays
