WE’RE GROWING FAST. NOW WE NEED SOMEONE EXCEPTIONAL TO HELP LEAD WHAT COMES NEXT.
NRG Solar is looking for an outstanding Managing Director to join the business and take a major leadership role in the next stage of our growth.
This is not a caretaker MD position. It is not a role for somebody looking to simply maintain an established operation, sit in meetings and produce reports. We want a commercially sharp, operationally exceptional leader who gets a genuine buzz from building businesses, developing people, solving problems and delivering growth.NRG Solar has grown rapidly across solar PV, battery storage, air source heat pumps and air conditioning, and our ambitions are considerably bigger than where we are today.We have an excellent reputation, a 5-star Google rating, a growing sales operation, an expanding installation network and significant demand coming into the business.Now we need the right person to help turn that momentum into a truly best-in-class renewable energy company.
THE OPPORTUNITY
You will work directly alongside the owner and take responsibility for the day-to-day leadership and performance of the business. Your job is simple to describe, but demanding to deliver: Make NRG Solar better, faster, stronger and more scalable.That means creating an operation capable of handling significant installation volumes without compromising the customer experience that has built our reputation.

We are looking for somebody who has already operated at a senior level within a fast-moving installation, construction, renewable energy, M&E or similarly operational business.Renewable energy experience would be a major advantage.Experience within solar PV, battery storage, ASHP, HVAC or M&E would be even better.But above everything else, we want ability.You should be someone who:* Takes complete ownership* Makes decisions* Moves quickly* Holds people accountable* Builds strong teams* Understands numbers* Understands margin* Can manage procurement and suppliers* Can control multiple live projects* Understands the importance of cash flow and forecasting* Can recruit and develop great people* Spots problems before they become expensive* Creates systems rather than firefighting forever* Is obsessive about customer experience* Can operate comfortably in a rapidly growing business* Wants responsibility rather than avoiding itYou must be equally comfortable looking at the numbers in the morning, dealing with an operational problem at lunchtime and planning the next stage of growth in the afternoon.
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE IS NON-NEGOTIABLE
We are extremely proud of the reputation we have built. Growth means nothing if quality disappears with it. The successful candidate will be responsible for protecting and improving our customer journey—from the moment an order is signed through to installation, commissioning, certification and aftercare.We expect problems to be dealt with quickly, professionally and properly. Our objective isn’t simply to install renewable technology. It is to provide the best installation and aftercare experience in the industry.Y
OU’LL BE JOINING A BUSINESS WITH SERIOUS AMBITION
We aren’t looking to grow slowly. We are building the infrastructure, people, supplier relationships and operational capability required to scale significantly. That creates a huge opportunity for the right person.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to put your fingerprints on the growth of the entire company.
THIS ROLE PROBABLY ISN’T FOR YOU IF…You need everything perfectly structured before you can perform.You avoid difficult conversations. You need chasing. You prefer managing from spreadsheets rather than understanding what is actually happening on the ground.You accept “that’s how we’ve always done it” as an answer.Or you’re simply looking for your next comfortable management position.We aren’t hiring for comfortable.We’re hiring someone who wants to build something.WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKEWithin your first year, we expect you to have helped create an operation that is:More organised.More accountable.More profitable.More scalable.And delivering an even better customer experience.You’ll have clear visibility across workloads, installation capacity, procurement, margins, customer satisfaction, compliance and team performance.Most importantly, the business should be capable of continuing to grow without quality being sacrificed.
