  • Recruiter: Aventus Eco
  • Job posted: 14/09/26
  • Reference: 3176245183
  • Type: Permanent
  • Salary: Competitive
  • Job location: Glasgow

    Aventus Eco is looking for an experienced Renewable Energy Electrician to join our growing team on a full time, permanently employed basis.

    We design and install air source heat pumps, solar PV systems and battery storage systems across the Central Belt of Scotland.

    We are not like many renewable companies operating in the industry.

    We do not rush installations, overload the diary or expect our team to work until 9pm every night just to squeeze as many jobs as possible into the week. Every project is given the time it needs to be completed properly, safely and to the high standard our customers expect.

    Aventus Eco was named Best Installer in Scotland for 2026. That recognition reflects the quality of our designs, installations, customer service and the people who make up our team.

    We are now looking for the right electrician to become an important part of that team.

    The role

    The successful candidate will be responsible for the electrical installation, testing and commissioning of:

    • Battery storage systems
    • Inverters and associated generation equipment
    • EPS and whole house backup systems
    • Consumer unit alterations and upgrades
    • Generation meters and isolators
    • Heating controls and heat pump wiring
    • EV charging equipment where required
    • Electrical testing, certification and commissioning

    You will work closely with our heating engineers, solar installers and design team to complete high quality renewable installations from start to finish.

    All of our work is spread across the Central Belt. We are not looking for someone to spend their working week travelling to every corner of Scotland or regularly staying away from home.

    Most of our installations are carried out in occupied homes, so good communication, attention to detail and respect for the customer's property are essential.

    Who we are looking for

    We are looking for more than someone who can simply complete the electrical work.

    We want a genuine team player who is reliable, hardworking and willing to support the rest of the installation team.

    The right person will take pride in their work, communicate properly and understand that the finished installation represents everyone at Aventus Eco.

    You must be comfortable taking responsibility for your own work while also working closely with heating engineers, roofers, designers and office staff.

    Being part of Aventus Eco means being part of a company with a strong reputation and exceptionally high standards. We have worked hard to build that reputation, and joining the team comes with the responsibility of maintaining it on every installation.

    Essential qualifications and experience
    • Fully qualified, time served electrician
    • SVQ or NVQ Level 3 in Electrical Installation, or equivalent
    • Strong domestic electrical installation experience
    • Experience installing and commissioning solar PV and battery storage systems
    • Confident carrying out electrical testing and certification
    • Good fault finding and problem solving ability
    • Good knowledge of current electrical regulations
    • Full UK driving licence
    Preferred qualifications and experience
    • City and Guilds 2391 Inspection and Testing qualification, or equivalent
    • Recognised Electrical Energy Storage Systems qualification
    • ECS Gold Card or SJIB Grade Card
    • Experience wiring and commissioning air source heat pumps
    • Experience with domestic heating controls
    • Experience with EPS and whole house backup systems
    • Experience working within MCS requirements

    Heat pump experience would be an advantage, although manufacturer and product training can be provided for the right electrician.

    Salary and responsibilities

    The salary starts from £45,000 per year.

    A higher salary will be available depending on the successful candidate's experience, renewable qualifications and the level of responsibility they can take within the business.

    Additional responsibilities may include:
    • Managing the electrical side of installations
    • Testing and signing off completed work
    • Supporting other members of the installation team
    • Reviewing electrical installation standards
    • Fault finding and providing technical supportHelping develop electrical procedures as the company grows
    • Progressing towards an Electrical Supervisor or Qualified Supervisor position
    What we provide
    • Salary from £45,000, increasing depending on experience and responsibilities
    • Full time permanent employment
    • Company van
    • Paid annual leave
    • Company uniform and PPE
    • Specialist tools and testing equipment
    • Ongoing manufacturer and renewable technology training
    • Opportunity to progress within the company
    • Regular work throughout the Central Belt
    • A varied role covering heat pumps, solar PV and battery storage
    • Properly planned installations with enough time to complete the work correctly
    • A supportive and hardworking team environment
    • No pressure to rush jobs or work unreasonable hours simply to increase installation numbers
