Installation Manager

Mypower are a multi-award-winning team, leading the way in renewable energy installations for the South-West and beyond. Based in the North of Gloucestershire, we design, supply, and install bespoke Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems for large-scale companies specialising in commercial, industrial, and agricultural businesses.

So why work in the renewable sector?

We think the question is, why wouldn’t you want to work in the renewable sector?

The renewables industry is BOOMING. Even before the recent rise in electricity costs, solar PV provided a very attractive way for businesses to reduce both their operating costs and carbon footprint. Many businesses are now realising the value and simplicity of solar PV and are reaching out to trusted and established renewable installers, like Mypower, to design and install the right Solar PV system for their business.

Our focus is to continue to deliver excellent service, top-notch advice, and high-quality installations for our growing list of customers. If you're interested in making a positive impact on the planet, then this might be the job for you!
