Solar Roofing Engineer

Watt Solar Solution Limited specialises in the design and installation of high-quality commercial and residential solar photovoltaic systems, battery storage solutions and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. We work across a wide range of property types, from private homes through to larger commercial sites, delivering renewable energy systems that are reliable, carefully installed and tailored to each customer’s requirements.

As a young and ambitious business, we are building our reputation on safety, technical standards, quality workmanship and customer care. We are results‑driven, but we also believe that sustainable success is built through trust, accountability and looking after our people.

The Solar Roofing Engineer will support the roof‑based installation of solar PV systems on residential and commercial properties. This is primarily a roofing and mounting role, not an electrical position.

We are looking for someone who can be trusted on a roof. Safety, reliability and attitude are essential. The successful candidate will be someone who takes ownership of their work, understands the importance of doing things properly, and can be relied upon to act responsibly when working at height.

At Watt Solar Solution Limited, we do not want people to do the right thing because they are forced to. We want people who do the right thing because they take pride in their work, respect their colleagues, care about the customer and understand the standards we are building our business on.

This is an opportunity to join a growing renewable energy company where your contribution will be visible, valued and important to the continued development of the business.
