Are you looking for an opportunity to join a growing company within the renewable energy industry?

I am currently representing a growing European solar energy company that develops, plans, builds, and operates large-scale photovoltaic (PV) systems across Germany and Europe. They are continuing to expand and are looking for a Planning Engineer to join their team and support the development of ground-mounted solar projects.

In this role, you will be responsible for planning PV projects from the preplanning stages through to commissioning. You will produce detailed CAD drawings, create material lists, work with suppliers, and ensure projects meet all relevant certification and conformity requirements.

The successful candidate will ideally be a Junior Electrical Engineer with 1-3 years of experience, alongside AutoCAD knowledge. Previous solar experience would be beneficial, but the company is happy to train someone with a strong electrical background and the right attitude.

The Role:

• Planning ground-mounted PV projects from preplanning to commissioning
