Job Description:

Freelance Senior Electrician – Solar & Renewables

Bristol, Kent & Midlands | Work within approximately a 70-mile radius of your location

£300–£400 per day | 2–3 days per week initially

Strong potential to increase to full-time

Winberry is currently partnering with a well-established electrical and renewable installations business to recruit experienced, senior on-the-tools electricians for an exciting freelance opportunity across Bristol, Kent and the Midlands. This is an ideal role for highly qualified professionals looking for consistent work while retaining the flexibility to take on other projects.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work on high-end residential properties with technically advanced installations.
• Projects include Solar PV, battery storage systems, EV chargers and integrated energy solutions.
• Exposure to large and bespoke installations rather than repetitive site work.
• Join a quality-driven team that prioritises workmanship over volume.
• Opportunity to act as the Nominated Technical Person, enhancing your professional profile.
• Genuine pathway to more regular or full-time work as demand grows.

The Role

• Freelance position starting at 2–3 days per week, with flexibility required for team-based installations.
• Primarily residential projects with occasional commercial work.
• Comfortable working independently, problem-solving on site and maintaining exceptionally high standards.
• Expected to provide your own tools and deliver tidy, customer-focused installations.

Mandatory Qualifications (Essential)

• BS7671 – 18th Edition
• City & Guilds 2391-52 Inspection & Testing
• Level 3 Core Electrical Qualification
• Level 3 Awards in Solar PV, EV Charging and Electrical Energy Storage Systems
• Able to provide certification to support Nominated Technical Person (NTP) status

Ideal Candidate

• Senior electrician who is actively on the tools rather than purely supervisory.
• Proactive, reliable and solutions-focused.
• Professional with excellent customer-facing skills.
• Takes genuine pride in delivering high-quality installations.

If you're looking for technically rewarding work with excellent earning potential and the opportunity to become part of a growing renewables business, we'd love to hear from you.
