Junior Project Manager – Renewable Energy (Clearvolt)
Location: Alderley Edge / Cheshire
Salary: £28,000 – £32,000 + performance bonus
Contract: Full-time, permanent
About Us
Clearvolt develops and delivers behind-the-meter renewable energy projects (solar, wind and battery storage) for leading sports clubs, industrial estates and commercial clients. Our partners include world-class organisations across the UK and internationally. We work with funders to bring large-scale, zero-capex renewable infrastructure to life.
We are now looking for a Junior Project Manager to help us meet strict funder requirements and support project delivery. This is a fantastic opportunity for a motivated individual to gain hands-on experience in the renewable energy industry, working directly on high-profile projects.
The Role
You will be responsible for supporting the project team in ensuring all documentation, surveys and approvals are completed, tracked and submitted to funders. You will work across technical, legal and commercial areas, coordinating consultants and chasing stakeholders to keep projects moving.
Key Responsibilities
- Maintain and update project documentation in line with funding requirements
- Track outstanding deliverables (grid offers, planning consents, surveys, structural reports, RAMS, financial models)
- Liaise with consultants, EPCs, DNOs, lawyers and landlords to secure required documents
- Manage document control systems (drawing registers, surveys, reports, consent letters)
- Support preparation of funding submissions and milestone reports
- Collect and review data (half-hourly consumption, credit checks, insurance consents)
- Assist with design deliverables coordination (SLDs, array layouts, monitoring system schematics)
- Provide administrative and project management support to the senior team
About You
This is a junior role; we are not expecting you to produce technical designs yourself. Instead, you will need the organisation, persistence and attention to detail to coordinate others and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

- Live within a 30-minute commute of Alderley Park, SK10
- Degree or equivalent in engineering, construction management, renewable energy, or business/project management
- Strong organisational and document-control skills
- Proficiency in Excel and MS Office; familiarity with project tools (Smartsheet, Trello, Asana or similar)
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- Ability to work independently, chase stakeholders and meet deadlines
Desirable
- Project management qualification (PRINCE2, APM or equivalent)
- Professional or technical qualifications such as IET (electrical) or RICS (property/land)
- Some exposure to renewable energy, utilities, infrastructure or construction
- Understanding of DNO connections, planning consents, or PPAs/leases
- Experience with financial models or technical reporting
Package
- £28,000 – £32,000 base salary depending on experience

- Progression opportunity as the company grows
- Exposure to some of the UK and Europe's most exciting renewable energy projects
