Looking for More Than Just Another Electrical Job?

GreenGenUK is continuing to grow across Devon, and we’re looking for experienced electricians who want variety, strong earning potential and the opportunity to develop their careers in renewable energy.

Established in 2011 and now part of the Hometree Group, GreenGenUK delivers renewable energy projects across domestic and commercial sectors throughout the South West.

This isn’t a role where you’ll spend every week doing the same work.

One day you could be installing and commissioning a Tesla Powerwall or Fox battery system. The next you might be wiring an air source heat pump, fault-finding a renewable heating system or connecting a large-scale solar PV installation at a factory, car dealership or NHS facility.

If you’re an experienced electrician looking for a role with more variety and the chance to develop specialist skills across the technologies shaping the future of our industry, we’d like to hear from you.

We know earnings matter.

Your contracted salary will be £35,000–£40,000 depending on experience, based on a 40-hour working week.

But that’s only part of the package.

We pay travel time door-to-door.

Because our engineers work across the South West, a typical paid working week can often be 44–50 hours once travel time is included.

That means experienced electricians can realistically achieve total annual earnings of £40,000–£50,000+, depending on their base salary, hours worked and the additional opportunities they choose to take.

There are also opportunities to increase your earnings further through:

· Weekend work

· On-call cover

· Overtime

· Working away

· Additional project requirements

We’re not looking to hide overtime behind an inflated advertised salary. The £35,000–£40,000 is your base salary, with additional paid hours and opportunities on top.

A Typical Week Could Include

· Installing Tesla Powerwall battery systems

· Installing Fox battery storage systems

· Wiring and commissioning air source heat pumps

· Solar PV installations from domestic rooftops to large commercial arrays

· Connecting and commissioning inverters

· Installing EV charging equipment

· Consumer unit upgrades

· Testing, inspection and certification

· Fault finding and diagnostics

· Heating controls and renewable system wiring

· Supporting large-scale commercial renewable energy projects

No two weeks are the same.

Our domestic customers range from people living in centuries-old cottages and converted barns to brand-new homes and cutting-edge passive houses.

Our commercial customers are equally varied, from small independent businesses and farms through to factories, car dealerships and NHS hospitals.

We focus on delivering quality projects directly for homeowners, businesses and organisations that have chosen to invest in renewable technology. That means workmanship, customer service and pride in the finished installation genuinely matter.

Why Join GreenGenUK?

· South West Renewable Heating Installer of the Year 2025

· Established renewable energy business with over 50 employees

· Part of the Hometree Group

· Strong and growing pipeline of work across Devon and Cornwall

· £35,000–£40,000 base salary depending on experience

· Paid door-to-door travel time

· Realistic total earnings of £40,000–£50,000+

· Company van

· Private medical insurance

· Weekend and on-call earning opportunities

· Overtime and working-away opportunities

· Manufacturer and technical training

· Development across solar PV, batteries, EV charging and heat pumps

· Genuine opportunities for career progression

· Long-term career in one of the fastest-growing areas of the electrical industry

What We’re Looking For

Qualified Electricians – Essential

· NVQ Level 3 / City & Guilds in Electrical Installation or equivalent

· 18th Edition Wiring Regulations

· Experience in domestic and/or commercial electrical installations

· Good testing, fault-finding and problem-solving ability

· High standard of workmanship

· Comfortable dealing directly with customers

· Ability to work independently and as part of a wider installation team

· Full UK driving licence

Experience We’d Particularly Welcome

Experience in renewables is an advantage, but it isn’t essential.

We’re particularly interested in electricians with experience in any of the following:

· Solar PV

· Battery storage

· Tesla Powerwall

· EV charging

· Heat pump wiring and controls

· Inspection & testing

· Commercial electrical installations

· JIB Gold Card

· CSCS

· SSSTS / SMSTS

· IPAF or other access qualifications

If you’re a strong electrician without renewable energy experience, we’ll provide the training and support needed to develop your skills.

What We Offer

· £35,000–£40,000 base salary DOE

· Realistic total earning potential of £40,000–£50,000+

· 40-hour contracted working week

· Paid door-to-door travel time

· Weekend work opportunities

· On-call payments

· Overtime opportunities

· Enhanced payments for working away

· Company van

· Company pension scheme

· Private medical insurance

· 28 days holiday including bank holidays

· Company workwear and PPE

· Manufacturer training

· Professional and technical development

· Clear progression within a growing renewable energy business

Ready for Something Different?

If you’re currently working as an electrician and feel like you’ve hit a ceiling — whether that’s earnings, variety or progression — this could be the opportunity to do something different.

You’ll retain the electrical skills you’ve spent years developing while gaining experience across solar PV, batteries, EV charging, heat pumps and larger commercial renewable projects.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
